Introduction

This help file is the online guide to most of the error and system-information messages generated by the Windows NT operating system. Some messages generated by applications or device drivers have also been included. An online database for event log messages is also provided. However, you will need to have Microsoft Access installed on your system to view this database.

This online help file and the event log database are not intended as exclusive references. If, for example, you encounter a network error message in the command prompt window, you can find help for the network problem by typing net helpmsg and the message identification number.

The printed book, Microsoft® Windows NT® Workstation Resource Kit: Windows NT Workstation Resource Guide contains additional reference information that is not available online. Chapter 38, “Windows NT Executive STOP Messages,” discusses the various types of messages generated by the Windows NT Executive and categorizes them by their type and severity. Chapter 39, “Windows NT Debugger,” provides information on how to troubleshoot Executive STOP messages by configuring the computer for a local or remote debugging session.

How to use this help file

The error and system-information messages have been organized as follows:

•   Messages are normally followed by a description of the circumstances that might generate the message and, if appropriate or needed, by a suggested user action.

•   Variable names appear in italics.

•   Most status messages that require no user action are not documented.

•   Where possible, each message is associated with a component of the operating system, such as Notepad or Windows NT Explorer.

•   Network messages are included in the alphabetical list along with their network message ID number.

There are several ways to search for messages:

Alphabetical List lists the messages alphabetically by the first letter of the first word of the message. Click on the letter that corresponds to the initial letter in the message. If you cannot find the message that appears on your screen in the alphabetical list, it may begin with a replaceable parameter. Variable names, which are placeholders for the specific word or number that appears in the message, are used as substitutes for replaceable parameters. They appear in italics in the online help file. For example, if the online help file message reads, “number files were not found,” the error message that appears on your screen will contain the actual number.

To view the messages that begin with a variable or a punctuation mark, click the symbol button. These messages are alphabetized by the variable name used to replace that parameter. The following is a list of all the variable names used in the Messages online help file as substitutes for replaceable parameters:

address	date	name	text

application	drive letter	number	time

code	file system	parameter	user name

command	filename	path

computer name	group	systemroot

Source lists the sources that generate a message in the event log. Click on the source and you will get an alphabetical listing of the messages that correspond to that source.

Event ID lists the messages that you see in the event log by their event log ID numbers. Click on the number and you will get an alphabetical listing of the messages that correspond to that event ID number.

By system, security, or application log opens a screen where you can select if you want to see application, security or system log messages. The messages from the selected log then are listed alphabetically.

Categories and Applications takes you to a screen that lists the main messages categories at the top and lists the applications that you can scroll through. When you select a category or application you are taken to an alphabetical listing of the messages generated from that category or application.

Product Support Suggestions

Sometimes, the only suggested user action is to obtain help from your own or another technical support group. In that case, we suggest you collect the following information before contacting technical support:

The type of hardware that you are using, including networking hardware, if applicable

The exact content of the message that appears on the screen

A description of what happened and what you were doing when the problem occurred

"Administrator" and "Guest" are already used. Please enter a different name for the user. text

Component:	Setup

Explanation:

Windows NT has two built-in accounts—the Guest account and the Administrator account. These accounts were created for specific uses and are, by default, members in a number of default groups.

User Action:

Enter a different name for the user. Note that a user name cannot be identical to any other user or group name of the computer being administered. It can contain up to 20 uppercase or lowercase characters except for the following:   "  /  \  [  ]  :  ;  |  =  ,  +  *  ?  <  >Also, a user name cannot consist solely of periods (.) and spaces.

 filename  This file contains non-ANSI text. Some information may be lost.  Continue?

Component:	Shell

Explanation:

When pasting ASCII text files, not all of the extended ASCII character values are preserved. This problem occurs because the Windows NT operating environment is standardized on the ANSI character set. Only those ASCII characters that also exist in the ANSI character set can be displayed and printed. Characters without an equivalent in the ANSI character set display and print as vertical bars or underscores. Line-draw characters are replaced with plus sign (+), pipe (|), and minus sign (-) characters.

User Action:

<command> : bad metric value  <address>                    [TCP/IP]
 command : bad metric value  address

Component:	TCP/IP

Explanation:

An enhancement was made to the route command for Windows NT Service Pack 2 to allow a metric (hop count) to be specified. This hop count parameter is stored in the registry along with the other information for each persistent route. The route entry format was changed in the registry to add a field for the metric, and the new route code can not read the older-style entries.

User Action:

Delete the registry values for the old persistent routes, and re-add the routes using the route /p command. Or modify the old registry values by adding the metric to them. They will then become visible after the next reboot.

Another machine has sent a name release message to thi...  [Netevent]
Another machine has sent a name release message to this machine probably  because a duplicate name has been detected on the TCP network.  The IP address  of the node that sent the message is in the data. Use nbtstat -n in a  command window to see which name is in the Conflict state.

Component:	Netevent

Event ID:	4320	Log: 	System

Source:	NetBIOS	Type: 	Error

Explanation:

A few network occurrences can cause this message. A computer on the network may have the same name, or you may be logging on to multiple computers with the same user name. If you are using WINS, you may have inactive or duplicate names in the WINS database. The WINS server sends this error every time it releases a NetBIOS name from the IP address to a new account that is logged on to the same computer. If you are using DHCP, corruption in the DHCP database can cause this error. The error could also be caused by a multihomed computer. Or, a computer may be configured for one name, but an ipconfig -all command returned a different host name.

User Action:

When you use the nbtstat -n command, if the IP address is all zeros, look for any Windows for Workgroups computers on the network with the same name. Windows for Workgroups computers sometimes return all zeros for their IP address with this error. If you log on to multiple computers with the same user name, the user names will register with a <03h> and that will be the name in conflict. If the DHCP database is corrupted, clear the DHCP-related entries in the Registry, delete any .MIB files, and then reinstall DHCP. If a computer was configured for a name but the ipconfig -all command returned a different host name, go to the Registry editor and change the computer name in the TCP/IP parameters section.

Enable gethostbyname() WINS resolution                     [DHCP]
Enable gethostbyname() WINS resolution

Component:	DHCP

Explanation:

Windows Sockets (WINS) applications generally use the gethostbyname() call to resolve a hostname to an IP address. The gethostbyname() call uses a default name lookup sequence. Check the HOSTS file for a matching name entry. If a Domain Name Server is configured, query it. If no match is found, try the NetBIOS name resolution sequence. Local LMHOSTS files or WINS proxies plus Windows Sockets gethostbyname() calls (using standard DNS and/or local HOSTS files) in addition to standard node types.

User Action:

Click Yes to enable gethostbyname.


Enable NBT hostname resolution                             [DHCP]
Enable NBT hostname resolution

Component:	DHCP

Explanation:

NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NBT) is a session layer network service that performs name-to-IP-address mapping for name resolution. NetBIOS uses a registration process to acquire a unique name for each node and a resolution process to determine the address of the node. The modes (b-node, p-node, m-mode, and h-node) of NetBIOS over TCP/IP define how network resources are identified. For information on how these modes are used to determine name resolution, see Chapter 4 of the TCP/IP manual.

User Action:

Click Yes to enable NBT hostname resolution.


Enable WINS proxy agent                                    [DHCP]
Enable WINS proxy agent

Component:	DHCP

Explanation:

A computer that runs Windows NT Server and has WINS enabled can act as a WINS proxy agent for b-node clients. The purpose of the WINS proxy agent is to resolve name queries from the b-node clients through the WINS server. When a b-node client tries to access a resource, it sends a broadcast for that name on the local subnet. If a WINS proxy agent is enabled on that subnet, the agent picks up the name query and tries to resolve it through the internal cache of remote names. If the name is not registered in the cache, the agent contacts the WINS server to resolve the names. If the name query for the remote name is successful, the proxy agent receives the IP address of the remote name from the WINS server. When the IP address is received, the proxy agent caches the name, waits for the next query for that name, and then responds from the cache indicating that the name query is successfully resolved.

User Action:

Click Yes to enable WINS proxy agent.

Host not found name

Component:	WINS Service

Explanation:

The connection to the host could not be established because the host could not be found on the network.

User Action:

Use the ping utility to test the connection to the host. If you cannot ping the host, try to ping the gateway. If you cannot ping the gateway, the gateway is down and connection to the host cannot be established. Contact your network administrator and verify that the gateway is down. Try your connection when the gateway is back online.

ICMP network unreachable.                                  [DHCP]
ICMP network unreachable.

Component:	DHCP

Explanation:

When TCP segments are destined to a nonlocal network, and the don’t fragment bit is set in the IP header. Any router or media along the path may have an MTU that differs from that of the two hosts. If media is encountered with an MTU that is too small for the IP datagram being routed, the router will attempt to fragment the datagram accordingly. When doing so, it will find the don’t fragment bit in the IP header is set. The router will then send the host an ICMP destination unreachable message. The datagram can’t be forwarded further without fragmentation. Upon receiving this ICMP error message, TCP adjusts its MSS so that any further packets sent on the connection will be no larger than the maximum size that can traverse the path without fragmentation. The minimum MTU permitted is 68 bytes, and this limit is enforced by Windows NT TCP.

User Action:

Try your connection again after TCP adjusts its MSS so that any further packets sent on the connection will be no larger than the maximum size that can traverse the path without fragmentation.

The default frame type for auto-detection on  <text>  ...  [Netevent]
The default frame type for auto-detection on  text  was changed to  text .  This type is now the default if no frame type can be detected.

Component:	Netevent

Event ID:	9501	Log: 	System

Source:	IPX/SPX	Type: 	Warning

Explanation:

Frame type is the way in which the network adapter formats the data to be put on the network. NetWare IPX clients and servers can be configured for different frame types, but for the computers to communicate, they must be configured for the same frame type. The Auto Frame Type Detection allows Windows NT to determine which IPX frame type is being used on the network and to set the NWLink frame type automatically. NWLink checks frames being passed to the network card to which the protocol is bound. If it detects frames of the type 802.2 or no frames at all, it sets the frame type to 802.2. Otherwise, it sets the frame type to whatever is being passed on the network. This IPX information message shows the new default frame type.

User Action:

No user action is needed, however, it is a good practice to double-check that the correct frame type was detected.  .

The disk geometry recorded in the volume's Bios Parame...  [Utilities]
The disk geometry recorded in the volume's Bios Parameter  Block differs from the geometry reported by the driver.  This volume cannot be converted to  file system .

Component:	Utilities

Explanation:

Windows NT will not convert the volume to NTFS because the existing BIOS Parameter Block (BPB) conflicts with the disk geometry information returned by the file system driver. Conversion requires that these two sources of information about disk geometry be consistent because Convert writes a new BPB based on the information it obtains from the file system driver. If Convert writes a BPB that conflicts with the BPB expected by the BIOS (the existing BPB), you will not be able to boot from that disk.

The IP address range given is invalid.                     [DHCP]
The IP address range given is invalid.

Component:	DHCP

Explanation:

If you are configuring the scope for an IP address range, the range should not include addresses of existing statically configured machines. These static addresses should be outside the range of the scope or they should be immediately excluded from the range.  Because the DHCP server itself is statically configured, be sure that its IP address is excluded from the range of the scope.

User Action:

Verify that the DHCP server's IP address is not included in the range of the scope and that the range does not include any statically configured machines that are on the network. Verify that the range does not overlap with any existing scopes that are already defined on the network.

The NETBT key could not be opened                          [WINS Service]
The NETBT key could not be opened

Component:	WINS Service

Explanation:

The NETBT configuration is stored in the Registry under the CurrentControlSet\Services\NETBT sub-key. The Linkage sub-key could not be opened. WINS uses the values under NETBT to send and receive client responses and requests.

User Action:

Ask the system administrator to check the Registry and reinstall TCP/IP, if necessary.


The NETBT key could not be queried                         [WINS Service]
The NETBT key could not be queried

Component:	WINS Service

Explanation:

By design, NetBIOS over TCP/IP (NetBT) supports only one IP address per network card adapter (NIC). It is possible to configure TCP/IP to have multiple IP addresses on a single NIC, but NetBT will support only the first address configured.

User Action:

If your computer registers multiple IP Addresses, you need to use multiple NICs. Each NIC should have its own unique IP address so the computer can register with WINS as multihomed. The NetBIOS name will then reference each of the IP addresses, and when that NetBIOS name is queried by a client, the WINS server will return all of the registered addresses in response to the query.

The Push Thread was requested for a range of records b...  [WINS Service]
The Push Thread was requested for a range of records but could not find any in the range.  This is a serious error.  Make sure that the time intervals are  set properly.  If the tombstone interval and timeout intervals are not correct   (i.e. too small-- being << the replication interval), the above condition is   possible. This is because the records might get changed into tombstones and   then  deleted before the remote WINS can pull them.  In the same vein, if  the refresh interval is set to be << replication interval then the records  could get released before a WINS can pull them (a released record is not   sent).

Component:	WINS Service

User Action:

Make sure that the time intervals are set properly in the WINS configuration. If the tombstone interval and time-out intervals are not correct (too small), reconfigure their values.

The redirector failed to allocate a multiplex table en...  [Netevent]
The redirector failed to allocate a multiplex table entry.  This indicates that  the MAXCMDS parameter to the redirector is insufficient for the users needs.

Component:	Netevent

Event ID:	3021	Log: 	System

Source:	Rdr	Type: 	Error

Explanation:

The MAXCMDS parameter specifies the maximum number of work buffers that the redirector reserves for performance reasons. The default is 15. If your application performs more than 15 simultaneous operations, you might want to increase this value. Because this parameter controls the number of execution threads that can be simultaneously outstanding at any time, your network performance will not always be improved by increasing this parameter. Each additional execution thread takes about 1K of nonpaged pool if you load up the network. Resources will not be consumed, however, unless the user actually makes use of them.

User Action:

Ask your network administrator to increase the MAXCMDS value in the LanmanWorkstation section of the Registry to increase your network throughput.

The timeout period has expired on a call to another WI...  [WINS Service]
The timeout period has expired on a call to another WINS server. Assuming that   the network and routers are working properly, either the remote WINS server is   overloaded, or its TCP listener thread has terminated.

Component:	WINS Service

Explanation:

This server tried to communicate with another WINS server, but got no response within the time-out period. The problem is either with the network or with the other server. Either one may be slow, probably due to a temporary overload. Or WINS on the other server may have encountered an error that left it unable to respond.

User Action:

Check the event log to find out what push or pull partner WINS was trying to communicate with. Then check that server's event log to find out what the problem is, and take appropriate action. If there appears to be no problem on the remote server, check the network and routers that connect to the servers.

Component:	Security

Event ID:	513	Log: 	Security

Source:	Security	Type: 	Success

Windows NT is starting up.

Component:	Security

Event ID:	512	Log: 	Security

Source:	Security	Type: 	Success

Explanation:

This event record indicates that the system has been rebooted. This has several implications: All paired events (such as logon/logoff or open/close) from before the restart are terminated. Some number of audit event records might have been lost. This is particularly true if a System Shutdown audit event record is not present in the log. This typically means that the system was powered off or stopped, rather than being shut down gracefully.
