WordPerfect Locking If NET USE Command Is Use |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The network administrator is trying the "NET USE N:\WP51" command on a DEC PCSA network. When he tries to enter WordPerfect, it locks up after the three users initials are entered. The startup switches /NE, /32, /X, and /U-xxx did not solve the problem. He also had the problem after disabling QEMM. Solutions: WordPerfect was trying to open and create .SET files and temporary files on a drive that was mounted on a Disk Service. This was causing WP to lock when the users would type in their initials. A Disk Service is a Read-Only resource. By default, users cannot write any files to this type of disk. When WP tried to create a .SET file and open temporary files, the operating system would prevent the file creation and would lock the system. The customer was able to correct the problem by installing the WordPerfect program files on a Disk Service and redirecting all the .SET and temporary files to a File Service (Read, Write) resource. |
