PC Win: Err Msg: MMFCLEAN.EXE Has Stopped Responding...Last reviewed: June 5, 1996Article ID: Q125489 |
The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSIf you run MMFCLEAN.EXE, the system you are running it on can lock up or hang. You will also receive the following error message:
MMFCLEAN.EXE has stopped responding to the system. CAUSEIn the first step of the MMFCLEAN.EXE procedure, it creates a TEMP file (~mmf.tmp), which is a copy of the MMF file that it is attempting to clean. If the program is halted in any way, the TEMP MMF will not get deleted. Trying to run MMFCLEAN.EXE again may cause the system to lock up or hang.
RESOLUTIONThe resolution is to delete the offending TEMP files from the MAILDATA\MMF directory, and MMFCLEAN should work. NOTE: Insufficient disk space on the postoffice can also cause the system to lock-up or hang without warning or error message.
