• WinXP and Latest Alpha

    From robert wolfe@1:116/18 to All on Thu Dec 21 18:03:52 2017
    Ok, So moved my Mystic set up to WinXP Pro with SP3 all patched. When I install the M$ TCP/IP v6 stack and start MIS.EXE, I get the following:

    C:\data\mystic>mis.exe server
    Runtime error 216 at $7C90100B
    $7C90100B

    I get the same error even if I just uncheck the protocol and tell WinXP not
    to use it. To fix the problem, I had to removed the v6 stack completely.

    stack completely.

    I'm running v1.12 A36 under XP Pro SP3 32-bit as a Virtual PC VM without any upgrades or add-ons. Works great except for a rare ABend 216 once in a great while. Waiting on A37 release right now as pre-alphas are too unstable for me {chuckle} as I get a fair amount of production traffic.
