SLI_BID May Return LUA_CANCELLED/LUA_TERMINATED

 Last reviewed: February 9, 1998
Article ID: Q180703
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft SNA Server, versions 3.0, 3.0SP1, 3.0SP2, 4.0

SYMPTOMS

If a Win32 SLI application is running on an SNA Server computer and the SNA Server service is stopped, any outstanding SLI_BID requests are returned with the following error: 

   primary_rc   = 0x0021     (LUA_CANCELLED)
   secondary_rc = 0x00000080 (LUA_TERMINATED)
The SLI application may not be expecting this particular error code and may not recognize that the SNA Server is no longer available.

Instead, the SLI interface should return: 

   primary_rc = 0xF003 (LUA_COMM_SUBSYSTEM_ABENDED)

CAUSE

The SNA Server SLI interface is not returning an informative return code.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0, 3.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1), 3.0 SP2 and 4.0.

A supported fix is now available for SNA 3.0 and 4.0, but has not been fully regression-tested and should be applied only to systems experiencing this specific problem. Unless you are severely impacted by this specific problem, Microsoft recommends that you wait for the next Service Pack that contains this fix. Contact Microsoft Product Support Services for more information.

MORE INFORMATION

With this update applied, the SLI interface now returns the following error to the SLI_BID function in this instance: 

   primary_rc = 0xF003 (LUA_COMM_SUBSYSTEM_ABENDED)
