The version of MSPDBxx.DLL available on your system does not match the version required by this
tool.
Linker Tools Error LNK1102
out of memory
There was not enough memory for the tool to run. Probably the paging file exceeded available disk
space. If a shortage of disk space is not the cause, note the circumstances of the error, try to isolate
the problem and create a reproducible test case, then request technical support.
Linker Tools Error LNK1103
debugging information corrupt; recompile module
Probably the compilation was terminated before a valid object file was created. Recompile the given
object file. If recompiling does not correct the problem, note the circumstances of the error, try to
isolate the problem and create a reproducible test case, then consult technical support. See Corrupt
Object File for more information.
Linker Tools Error LNK1104
cannot open file "filename"
The tool could not open the given file. One of the following may be a cause:
There was not enough disk space.
The file does not exist.
The filename or its path was incorrectly specified.
The specified drive is invalid.
The file does not have the appropriate permissions.
The path for filename expands to more than 260 characters.
If the given file is named LNKn, which is a filename generated by the linker for a temporary file,
then the directory specified in the TMP environment variable may not exist, or more than one
directory is specified for the TMP environment variable. (Only one directory path should be
specified for the TMP environment variable.)
If the error occurs on the executable filename, an earlier version of the executable may still be
running. You will need to terminate the executable before linking it. In Windows NT or
Windows 95 you can use the utility PVIEW to look for and kill instances of the application.
If the error message occurs for a library name, and you recently ported the .MAK file from a
previous Microsoft Visual C++ development environment, the library may no longer be valid.
Ensure that the library still exists in this circumstance.
Linker Tools Error LNK1105
cannot close file "filename"
The tool could not close the given file. Possibly there was insufficient disk space available.
Linker Tools Error LNK1106
invalid file or disk full: cannot seek to location
The tool could not read or write to location in a memory-mapped file:
Your disk may be too full to complete the link. Free up some space and try the link again.
The error may be a result of trying to link over a network. Some networks do not fully support
the memory-mapped files used by the linker. Try linking on your local disk to see if that fixes
