SYMPTOMS
The SNA Server service (Snaservr.exe) may fail unexpectedly with an access violation in routine s1pxsnd. This specific failure can occur when using LU6.2 persistent verification with SNA Server. When this problem occurs, a Dr. Watson log similar to the following may be generated:

Application exception occurred:

App: exe\snaservr.dbg (pid=process id)

When: date time

Exception number: c0000005 (access violation)

NOTE: The following Knowledge Base articles refer to similar failure symptoms, though these problems have been fixed in SNA Server 4.0 Service Pack 2. While the failure is similar, the cause of this issue is specific to the use of persistent verification.

185689 Snaserver.exe May Trap in FunctionS1PXSND

(fixed in SNA Server 4.0 SP1)

195998 SNA Server Fails With AccessViolation in Routine s1pxsnd

(fixed in SNA Server 4.0 SP2)



CAUSE
To support persistent verification, the SNA Server service may be required to remove the password vector from the FMH-5 Attach request received from the SNA Server APPC DLL. In some cases, SNA Server failed to decrement the internal message size of the element, resulting in an access violation when transmitting the message to the SNA Server link service.
