Err Msg: Error Loading PROTMAN.DOS After Using SETUP /H (107574)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 3.11
This article was previously published under Q107574 SUMMARY
After you run SETUP /H with Windows for Workgroups 3.11 and reboot the
machine, you may receive the following error message after the NET START
command is run from the AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
PRO0011E: Equal sign missing between keyword and value
Error loading device driver PROTMAN.DOS
MORE INFORMATION
SETUP /H:<FILE>, where <FILE> is the name of the system settings file, is a
batch mode process that sets up Windows for Workgroups with little or no
user interaction. SETUP.SHH, located on Disk 1, is the systems settings
template that can be copied or modified to create a custom system settings
file.
This error message occurs when the MakeProtocol=yes entry appears in the
[network] section of the SETUP.SHH file and the [protocol.ini] section is
missing. This results in invalid sections that the NET command cannot read
being written to the PROTOCOL.INI file. Removing these unnecessary sections
in the PROTOCOL.INI file corrects this problem.
The [protocol.ini] section tells Setup which sections from the SETUP.SHH
file to delete after it creates the new PROTOCOL.INI file. The
[protocol.ini] section in the SETUP.SHH file was not required in
installations prior to Windows for Workgroups 3.11.
