3314.0. "FCS error %OAFC-E-SRVPVNOTSUPPORT, what does it mean" by BUSHIE::SETHI (My name is Sunil without the H) Thu Sep 23 1993 08:29

    Hi All,
    
    A customer has ALL-IN-1 IOS 3.0-1, OpenVMS 5.5-2 and DEC MAILworks 1.2
    installed.  Ever since the customer upgraded to DMW's 1.2 they have
    been seeing hunders of error messages in the OAFC$$SERVER.LOG, the
    error message is:
    
    13-SEP-1993 12:24:08.27  Server: CNB06V::"73="  Error:
    %OAFC-E-SRVPVNOTSUPPORT, The local or remote server does not support this 
    higher version protocol Message: SrvConnectProcess; the network partner is
    running higher version protocol
    
    They think that this happens when they are sending mail from DMW's to
    ALL-IN-1 IOS.  DMW's is installed on the same node as ALL-IN-1 IOS.
    
    Should this be an informational message ?  Is it really an error as the
    customer has not detected any problems ?
    
    Thanks,
    
    Sunil

	Sunil, It means that whomever sent the request to the server is running a different version of DASL than the FCS is. Things, in most cases, will work just fine. It is just a warning that the other guy from teh connection MAY send something across that this server can't handle, in which case it will simply be dropped. The big question is, how did this happen? DMW never talks directly to the FCS, only TeamLinks and IOS, TeamLinks is using the same dasl version number as the FCS and so is IOS, this code to trap this was put in for detection in a distributed environment, ie connections to remote servers or server-server connections. Can you give more information about the setup. You say they are sending dmw mail to IOS. Are they using TL? If so what version? If TL is not involved, I can't see how this pulled in the FCS since the mail would go via normal VMS mail channels which do not involve the FCS. If this doesn't give better info, you will have to turn on FCS tracing and do the operation again, so that you can see where the FCS on CNB06V thinks the connect is coming from. --Bob
3314.2	TeamLinks 2.0 to access 3.0-1 system	BUSHIE::SETHI	My name is Sunil without the H	`Fri Sep 24 1993 08:29`	23
	Hi Bob, >-< confused >- I must say that I was well and truely confused myself, I won't go into that right now. So to get rid of the confusion I talked to the real systems mangler. I don't think that the upgrade of DMW's has much to do with the error message in the OAFC$SERVER.LOG. The customer has TeamLinks 2.0 EFT version on site and my guess is that they were trying to access ALL-IN-1 IOS with not MUPA or TLC installed. The customer is looking into this as the TL version 2.0 clients are users are ment to only access ALL-IN-1 IOS on their test system. Would this explain the error message ? I have been trying to test this on our system and thanks to DECinspect someone has mangled our ALL-IN-1 IOS 3.0-1 system. So I would be grateful if you can confirm that this is the case. Regards, Sunil
3314.3	TL Mail for MS-Windows causes error msgs to be logged	BUSHIE::SETHI	My name is Sunil without the H	`Mon Sep 27 1993 03:16`	13
	Hi All, We have managed to solve the DECinspect problems and have tried to access ALL-IN-1 3.0-1. We had a few networking type of error messages displayed on the TL client 2.0. In the OAFC$SERVER.LOG we had the base note error messages logged. These messages are logged everytime we try to do E-mail type of functions. Regards, Sunil
