PRB: D2027: Could Not Execute ‘MASM’ Caused by Low Memory PSS ID Number: Q70918 Article last modified on 01-27-1992 PSS database name: S_QuickC

2.51

MS-DOS

Summary:

SYMPTOMS The following error message may be generated when using Microsoft QuickC with QuickAssembler version 2.51:

  error D2027: could not execute 'MASM'

CAUSE The error means (as stated on page 285 of the “QuickC Compiler ToolKit” manual) that the QCL driver could not execute the assembler component of the compiler. One possible cause of this error is that there is insufficient memory to run the assembler. The text “MASM” refers to the assembler component.

RESOLUTION Verify there is sufficient memory to run the assembler.

More Information:

To reproduce this problem, start QuickC, choose DOS Shell from the File menu, then try running QCL.EXE to assemble a .ASM file. (In the DOS Shell, there is considerably less memory available than at the top-level command prompt, so the error will be generated).
