Re: Missing Folders

How strange, exactly the same day you sent this message we had the same
bug, with the same conditions ( CA 313 ), SEQUEL included ...

Now for me it's solved, I spoke to IBM and found the proper person to
coach me.

If you still need it, here is the info.

For general information you have the APAR # II09493, available on 
www.as400.ibm.com/clientaccess/

The bug comes only on the client ( PC ) because of mix of network
services. As a result, reg file is corrupted and one or two CA tasks
won't start when rebooting. You can check them on your active file list:

CWBBS - 'byte string' for folder connection and drive mapping
CWBNPRED - 'net print redirector'

If CWBBS is active, you can access folders from your Windows explorer
and map drives on them.

If only CWBNPRED is active, you can only see the printers.

The roadmap to fix all problems was :

1 - unistall last CA service pack
2 - reboot
3 - unistall CA
4 - reboot
5 - check with REGEDIT if you have following registry entries:

        in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
        SOFTWARE
        check if you have the folder IBM
        If yes, delete it.

        in HKEY_CURRENT_USER
        SOFTWARE
        check if you have the folder IBM
        If yes, delete it.

6 - reboot
7 - reinstall CA

CWBBS and CWBNPRED were started during the reboot and all came to
normal.
