SYMPTOMSWhen you restart Windows 95 after installing Personal Web Server (PWS), you may experience one or more of the following symptoms:
CAUSEThese behaviors can occur if Trumpet WinSock is installed on your computer. Trumpet Winsock uses a proprietary Windows Sockets interface that does not support all the Windows Sockets Application Programming Interface (API) calls used by Personal Web Server.
RESOLUTIONTo work around this issue, remove Trumpet Winsock Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP), and then install Microsoft TCP/IP. To do this, follow these steps:
MORE INFORMATIONThe Personal Web Server HTTP and File Transfer Protocol (FTP) services make calls to the Windows Sockets Interface that are handled by the Wsock32.dll file. The Winsock.dll file provided by Microsoft correctly routes these calls to the Wsock32.dll file. However, the Winsock.dll file provided by Trumpet does not route these calls to the Wsock32.dll file, and the HTTP and FTP services do not start. In order to load Personal Web Server's HTML Administration pages from either the PWS Control Panel tool or the PWS icon on the taskbar, the HTTP service must be running. For additional information about this issue, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
