Linker Err Msg Under OS/2: L1083: Cannot Open Run File

PSS ID Number: 49322

Article Last Modified on 9/30/2003



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft LINK for OS/2 5.0x



This article was previously published under Q49322

When linking a program that is currently running in another session, the linker returns the following error:

L1083 CANNOT OPEN RUN FILE

This error disappears when the program that is running is closed.

This error occurs because OS/2 may want to discard the program's code segment and reload it later. If the linker writes a new EXE file and OS/2 reloads the code segment, it will be different and cause the accompanying problems.
