BUG: Dr. Watson Fails to Write Log File

 * }

Q111596

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.1

-

SYMPTOMS
Assume that the drive for the Windows directory is substituted using the MS- DOS SUBST command. For example:

  subst w: c:\win31 Under this condition, Dr. Watson fails to write to its log file, either the default DRWATSON.LOG or any other changed log filename. In fact, when the Dr. Watson icon is double-clicked, the message box that follows shows the log filename as W:\\DRWATSON.LOG, which is incorrect.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in Windows version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
