SYMPTOMS

When you execute a pending MSTest 3.0 Run Command on Workstation Job in Package Command Manager, the following error message appears:

   Package Command Manager is unable to install a package because the
   package is setup incorrectly. PCM has logged an event and sent it to
   your System Administrator.

RESOLUTION

Microsoft has modified the files, PCMWIN16.EXE and PCMWIN32.EXE, to correct this problem.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Systems Management Server version 1.1. This problem has been corrected in Systems Management Server version 1.2.

MORE INFORMATION

The following is a sample content of the PCMWIN.LOG file: 

   Connecting to package server...
   Invalidated command line is mtrun.exe audit.pcd...
