ERROR 12035 on SFM Volume Creation After Installing SP4 (216952)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 SP4
This article was previously published under Q216952

SYMPTOMS

When you create a new volume after installing Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4, you get the following message in the error log:
Event ID: 12035
Source: MacFIle
Error description: "Volume information for "volume name" could not be loaded. Setting defaults."

CAUSE

This problem occurs because error checking for volume information was enhanced in the Windows NT SP4 release and, because the volume has not yet been created, the Services for Macintosh service cannot find this information.

RESOLUTION

To work around this problem, do a controlled restart of the computer and you will see that no errors are posted to the event log and that the volume is functioning normally.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Windows NT 4.0.
