Error Message Description
"Error opening IP socket."
"Error canceling IP listen
packets."
"IP SendPacket error, code .
. ."
"IP Error sending packet ..."
"Error sending farewell
packet: ECB code . . ."
"IP error getting local target
address."
"Unable to bind socket 0x . .
."
Explanation: An error was returned from a call to the
network protocol stack.
Possible causes:
The IP protocol stack isn't loaded.
An internal error occurred in the protocol stack code.
Note
The same errors can occur with IPX.
Error Message Description
"Compression failure, result is
0x. . ."
"Decompression failure, result
0x . . ."
Explanation: Compression or decompression failure.
Possible causes:
A decompression failure can be caused by corrupt data in
an image file or data accessed across the wire.
A compression failure is probably caused by a bug in the
program.
Action: If you get a compression or decompression
failure on a file you know to not corrupted, isolate the
system from the network and try to reproduce the error.
This will determine if the error is on the network or in the
Altiris program. If the problem recurs on the isolated
system, report the error to Altiris.
"Unable to send packet: buffer
too big."
Explanation: The program tried to send a packet that
was larger than the internal limit.
Action: Isolate the system from the network and try to
reproduce the error. This will determine if the error is on
the network or in the Altiris program. If the problem
recurs on the isolated system, report the error to Altiris.
