FIX: A process that hosts a COMTI component may terminate unexpectedly after Event 102 messages are written to the Event log in Host Integration Server 2000

Symptoms

In Microsoft Host Integration Server 2000, a process that hosts a Microsoft Component Object Model (COM) Transaction Integrator (COMTI) component may use an LU 6.2-type remote environment (RE). The process may terminate unexpectedly after the following messages are written to the Event log:
Event ID: 102
Source: COMTI
Description: (102) COM Transaction Integrator reported the following exception to the client:
Component: COMTI Component
Method: COMTI Method

Exception description: (1431) A RECEIVE_AND_WAIT verb received the following buffer, apparently USER_CONTROL_DATA. m_fLinkMode = 0. What_rcvd = 0000.

This may indicate an internal error in the runtime. Remove and reinstall COM Transaction Integrator. If the problem persists, contact Microsoft customer support.
Event ID: 102
Source: COMTI
Description: (102) COM Transaction Integrator reported the following exception to the client:
Component: COMTI Component
Method: COMTI Method

File: c:\depot1666\his2000_qfe\source\comti\runtime\tranlu62\tranlu62obj.cpp Line: 1078
EXPLANATION: COM Transaction Integrator detected an internal inconsistency and has terminated the process to avoid the risk of further corruption in this process. The problem may be caused by a bug in COM Transaction Integrator or by bugs in any other components running in the same package. This event will be followed in the log by an event from MTS, because of the exception generated by COM Transaction Integrator to force process termination.
Additionally, a Microsoft COM+ event that is similar to the following may be logged when the problem occurs:
Event ID: 4194
Source: COM+
Description: The system has called a custom component and that component has failed and generated an exception. This indicates a problem with the custom component. Notify the developer of this component that a failure has occurred and provide them with the information below.

Component Prog ID: Component Program ID
Server Application ID: Application ID
Server Application Name: Application Name

The serious nature of this error has caused the process to terminate.

Exception: Exception code
Address: Memory address
Call Stack: function call stack

Cause

This problem occurs because COMTI incorrectly terminates its hosting process when it processes an APPC RECEIVE_AND_WAIT response that has the what_rcvd parameter set to 0x0000 (AP_NONE).

More information

After you apply this hotfix, COMTI no longer terminates its hosting process when it processes a RECEIVE_AND_WAIT response that has the what_rcvd parameter set to 0x0000 (AP_NONE).

If a RECEIVE_AND_WAIT response with the what_rcvd parameter set to 0x0000 (AP_NONE) is received, COMTI posts another RECEIVE_AND_WAIT verb to receive data from the IBM mainframe system. If the subsequent RECEIVE_AND_WAIT response returns with the what_rcvd parameter set to AP_NONE, COMTI logs the following message to the Event log instead of terminating the process:
Event ID: 102
Source: COMTI
Description: (102) COM Transaction Integrator reported the following exception to the client:

Component: COMTI Component
Method: COMTI Method

Exception description:
(1423) Unknown error, type 1; APPC error codes: Primary APPC Return Code, Secondary APPC Return Code; local LU Local LU Name ; host LU Remote LU Name ; remote TP TP Name. COM Transaction Integrator runtime encountered an unexpected communications error. Examine host logs for messages logged at the same time and contact Microsoft customer support.
