The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft SNA Server for Windows NT, version 2.11

SYMPTOMS

After installing the Windows 95 SNA Server client you receive the following error when running AFTP: 

   The c:\sna95\system\winappc.dll file appears to be corrupt.
   Reinstall the file and try again.
This problem occurs sporadically.

CAUSE

There is a Win16-bit version of WINAPPC.DLL present on your Win32-bit platform (that is, Windows 95 or Windows NT). The AFTP client links to the 16-bit WINAPPC.DLL but expects a 32-bit version of WINAPPC.DLL.

RESOLUTION

AFTP.EXE has been modified so that it now calls WAPPC32.DLL directly.

Microsoft has updated the following files to correct this problem: 

   <snaroot>\SYSTEM\AFTP.EXE
   <snaroot>\SYSTEM\AFTPAPI.EXE

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server for Windows NT. This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server for Windows NT, 2.11 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
