804: Unable to add the Startinv.ncf entry in the filename file on the server server_name

Source:  ZENworks Desktop Management; Workstation Inventory installation on NetWare servers

Severity:  Critical

Explanation:  On NetWare servers, the Installation program adds the following entries to sys:\system\autoexec.ncf file on the Inventory server:

SEARCH ADD ZEN_web_server_installation_path
zws.ncf
SEARCH ADD sys:\java\njclv2\bin
;ZENworks Inventory Settings
startinv.ncf

This error occurs if the Installation program is unable to add these entries in the autoexec.ncf file.

Possible Cause:  The autoexec.ncf is in use or locked by some other application or does not exist.

Action:  Follow these steps:

  1. (Conditional) If the autoexec.ncf file does not exist, manually create the file in the sys:\system directory.

  2. Add the following entries to the file:

    SEARCH ADD ZEN_web_server_installation_path
    zws.ncf
    SEARCH ADD sys:\java\njclv2\bin
    ;ZENworks Inventory Settings
    startinv.ncf
