Article ID: Q128470

3.40a MS-DOS

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Mail Host Access for IBM PROFS and OfficeVision, version 3.4a

SYMPTOMS
You are running the Microsoft Mail Gateway to PROFS Host Access and an incident report is sent to the "inform id" defined in "pwainit data." The first two lines of the incident report are:

Incident report xx/xx/xx xx:xx:xx PWABFUP Unable to spool PUNCH to MSCAL M RC=3D1003

CAUSE
PWAFSCSI EXEC did not release STEM variable prior to calling PWACKCSI EXEC. There were three sets of local arrays (called STEM variables in REXX) which contained lines of attachments, message body and addressing information related to currently processed mail item from mailbag. Those variables took significant memory space.

RESOLUTION
ONE LINE added to the program to free up memory:

DROP ATT_TEXT. MSG_TEXT. MESSAGE_TO,

Added prior to calling PWACKCSI EXEC which is responsible for processing of mail item.

New PWAFSCSI.XEC built to fix logic errors in code.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.4 of Microsoft Mail Gateway to PROFS and OfficeVision. This problem was corrected in version 3.4.041 of PWAFSCSI.XEC.
