Logged into my bbs this morning with 4 of these messages... [ close or ignore box opens over my synchronet control pane reading NTDVM has encountered a system error. The parameter is incorrect. C:\sbbs\xtrn\door\door1.bat on Node 1 Close or ignore ] Only seems to be caused by doors being launched by batch files that need to move files after the program is done.if files are copied before the door program is executed in the batch file no errors, but all of the ones generating this error move scores to folders after the door program is done and before the caller is sent back to the bbq door menu. Even with the error, the files are being moved just fine. It is leaving the caller in a stalled state and they just disconnect. All these batch files were working fine yesterday. I have windows update turned off. All other doors running fine, no errors showing in my logs. Is there an auto ignore feature for this error so it does not leave caller hanging? Thanks for any help or advice. I am running windows 10 with ntdvmx64 and synchronet 3.19b

Something that might help, if you're on Windows, go into terminal Server Configuration (click the little gear icon in the Terminal Server window) and uncheck "Minimize Externals". This will let you watch the output of the console windows that pop up while the door (and batch file) is running, and could help pinpoint where the error is happening.

Yes, that reply reminds me of a line from an old British Sitcom called the IT Crowd. They answer phone by saying, "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" LOL. Thanks. I will keep studying the problem. It's just part of the way it works. I do get enjoy a few weeks of the BBS working great before 'something' weird happens. Have a great evening Rob.

Yup, I loved that show. Not why I recommended it though: I was serious. :-)

Thanks. I will keep studying the problem. It's just part of the
way it works.

Especially with Windows. While it's less often than years/decades before, I still have to reboot my Windows systems on occasion to resolve issues. That *never* seems to be the case with my Linux systems.

You too!

Yes, it took two restarts but the BBS is sailing along in fine fashion. Happy Halloween.
