PointCast Business Network: Error with Pcn32.exe (186538)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Terminal Server Edition

This article was previously published under Q186538

SYMPTOMS

When you install the PointCast Business Network application on a Terminal Server computer, the following error message may be displayed:
Pcn32.exe - Ordinal not found.

CAUSE

If you experience this problem, it is because the wrong version of Mfc42.dll is installed. The file date on Terminal Server's version of Mfc42.dll is more recent than the version included with PointCast Business Network. The application is set up to not install its own version of the .dll file, because the Terminal Server's version is newer, although in fact it is the wrong (and older) version.

RESOLUTION

TO work around this problem, copy Mfc42.dll (currently 01/31/97 02:24p 941,840) from PointCast Business Network to the Terminal Server computer.
