TITLE :Spooling More than 127 Jobs to Print Queue Causes Corruption
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:BUGLIST3.10
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
- Microsoft Windows NT Advanced Server version 3.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
After you spool 127 print jobs to a print queue from Windows NT on an ALPHA-
based computer, the following print jobs are corrupt.
CAUSE
=====
When the 127th job is spooled, subsequent jobs have "spooling" status when
examined by Print Manager. As jobs are removed from the queue or printed,
the "spooling" jobs remain in "spooling" status. If the queue is purged,
the "spooling" jobs and some of the queued jobs cannot be deleted. The
spool directory indicates that filenames for the spooled files are reused
beginning at 32. That is, the counter for the spool filenames goes from 127
to 32. If you restart the computer, the jobs that couldn't be deleted are
no longer displayed in Print Manager and they can be deleted from
WINNT\SYSTEM32\SPOOL\PRINTERS.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT and Windows NT
Advanced Server version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post
new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes
available.
