213.0. "GPF in SWEXTOMM.DLL" by ALFSS2::OLSEN_G (Hey y'all, how y'all doin'?) Wed Feb 19 1997 14:48

     Hi,
    
        I have a customer who installed ManageWORKS 2.2, ServerWORKS 2.1 and
        when starting ManageWORKS Workgroup Administrator (icon from windows
        for workgroups) it give him a GPF in SWEXTOMM.DLL.
    
        I can't reproduce the problem but I have ServerWORKS v2.0  Tried all
        the usual suspects - memory, etc. but still get the error.
    
        Any ideas?
    
    
        Thanks,

213.1WFW Third Party not supportedPCBUOA::BRACKENMon Feb 24 1997 16:201
    This is not supported on WFW. Only NT and Windows 95.
213.2Please explain ...ALFSS2::OLSEN_GHey y'all, how y'all doin'?Tue Feb 25 1997 10:1713
    The swreadme.txt seems to differ. Not sure what you mean by "WFW Third
    Party not supported". The readme says ClientWorks is not supported on
    WFW stations, but there are several sections that talks about debugging
    problems on a WFW config - like performance, errors, etc.
    
    Customer loaded the ServerWorks console and Manageworks on a WFW 3.11
    machine as his admin console.
    
    Please explain.
    
    Thanks,

213.3Third Party AppsPCBUOA::BRACKENTue Feb 25 1997 11:085
    The SWEXTOMM.DLL is used to integrate Third Party applications such as
    GAM, RSM, KCRCM and any other that have the proper hooks. This
    autodiscovery recognition of the additional application is not
    supported on Windows for WorkGroups.
    
213.4What if...ALFSS2::OLSEN_GHey y'all, how y'all doin'?Tue Feb 25 1997 12:0913
    Rich,
    
    I've advised the customer to upgrade to win95, but for my info, 
    I'm not familiar with these apps - what are they?  My customer wants to 
    integrate this into his OpenView system - I saw notes about doing this
    but I would think this would require the SW extension?
    
    What would happen if I removed (or didn't install) the extension? 
    Would it work ok unless I wanted to interface with these apps?
    
    Thanks for the info,
    
    Gary
213.5Response from MelindaPCBUOA::BRACKENThu Feb 27 1997 13:4811
    The dll is specifically used for any application that wishes to
    integrate into ServerWORKS using the
    "Intelligent Toolbar Integration". We use it to integrate the RSM
    application (if it is installed), the
    KCRSM installation and the Mylex GAM2 and SWCC applications. We will be
    provided documentation on the
    web on how any application can be integrated using this feature. This
    is only for customers that
    are using the ServerWORKS Manager framework, ManageWORKS. 
    This is not a tool that lets us integrate our software 
    into other framework managers such as OpenView.
