Failure to Open Domain Error Displayed Too Soon By Manager (172118)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 SP1
This article was previously published under Q172118 SYMPTOMS
When trying to open SNA Server subdomains, SNA Server Manager may display a
Failed to Open Domain
error message prematurely. The SNAOLE error message
pops up stating that the domain could not be found but then the domain is
opened normally.
CAUSE
When trying to find the SNA Server configuration file path, a call is made to
the SNA Server DMOD (SNADMOD.DLL). If the DMOD is locked doing an Open
connection which times out, the call does not return for a while. This call
has a timeout of 10 seconds, after which the "Failed to Open Domain" message
was displayed.
RESOLUTION
An update has been made that increases the timeout for the call to find the
SNA Server configuration file path to 60 seconds to reduce the likelihood of
this problem occurring. During this 60 seconds, SNA Server Manager is unable
to respond to user input.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SNA Server,
versions 3.0 and 3.0 SP1. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA
Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this
Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base
