SYMPTOMS
The Dispatch program runs until it tries to initiate NSDA to start the directory synchronization (dirsync) process. Then the Dispatch program stops, and generates an OS/2 subsystem error message.



RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, run a forcedos command that precedes the normal command line, for example:

forcedos dispatch -dmo



MORE INFORMATION
You are attempting to start a bound MS-DOS-based OS/2 application. This application uses an unsupported OS/2 application programming interface (API), and therefore cannot be started by the OS/2 subsystem. After the application stops, you can try to restart it by using the forcedos command, because the MS-DOS-based subsystem supports the application.
