SLI Application Fails With LUA_RESERVED_FIELD_NOT_ZERO (197629)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 SP3
  • Microsoft SNA Server 4.0 SP1
This article was previously published under Q197629

SYMPTOMS

When running an SLI application on SNA Server 3.0 Service Pack 3 or SNA Server 4.0 Service Pack 1, the SLI application may fail unexpectedly with the following return code:

primary_rc = LUA_PARAMETER_CHECK (0x0001) secondary_rc = LUA_RESERVED_FIELD_NOT_ZERO (0x00000006)

This problem does not occur with earlier versions of SNA Server.

CAUSE

The SNA Server SLI DLL (Winsli32.dll) was incorrectly using the RUI lua_extension_list_offset while formatting a chain of messages to send over the RUI interface. This problem was inadvertently introduced while adding the new SLI feature described in the following Knowledge Base article:
