XGEN: ICS: Japanese Chat Server Shows Some Errors in English

• Microsoft Internet Information Server version 3.0
• Internet Chat Server, version 2.0

SYMPTOMS

Some error messages that are generated by the Japanese version of Microsoft Internet Chat Server (ICS) Administrator program may be displayed in English rather then Japanese. The following is the most commonly displayed error message:

Please enter an integer between 0 and 10000

CAUSE

The error messages occur because of a limitation of the Microsoft Internet Information Server version 3.0 (IIS 3.0). The error string is contained in the Mfc42u.dll file, which is installed by the Japanese version of IIS 3.0. The file contains a few English strings in place of the Japanese strings. This problem has no adverse effect on the operation of the Microsoft Internet Chat Server, except that errors are displayed in a language other than what would normally be expected.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Internet Information Server version 3.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
