In 2x a server I have opened access to a desktop and to 3 files, but at attempt of connection from the client the desktop opens only, and at attempt of opening of a file gives out it: Error The system cannot find the file specifed. The initial program cannot be started: memshell.exe. Please consult help for mode information. Excuse for my English
On my server the given file memshell.exe is absent in this folder c: \windows \system32\ that it is possible to make?
Reinstalled many times with different configurations, but always even a mistake with a file memshell.exe that it is possible to make?
Are you installing it with administrative rights?? Can you add files manually to that folder?? What is the OS you are using? Nixu
Are you experiencing this issue on other terminal servers? Have you got an anti-spyware or virus checker that is running on your system? As i have never seen such as issue.. Nixu
The terminal server at us one anti-spyware and anti-virus is not present well unknown ask other moderators or managers it is urgently necessary
I had this same problem. I ended up solving it through my client settings. When I built my server I changed the default 2x Client Gateway port to 1494 since that is a port that my work allows out through the firewall. I was always able to connect from my machines at home, but when I set up the client at work I always got the memshell.exe error. After reading the forum and getting no help I kept playing around with my settings. I upgraded my client, still nothing. Then I realized that my client had the Connection Mode under "Farm Properties" set to Direct Mode. When I changed this to Regular Gateway and entered the correct port number everything started working. Hope this works for you.
Hi kaikirk, your issues were connectivity issues and not memshell not being available in c:\windows\system32\. The easiest to solve connection issues is to use regular gateway as you mentioned. Nixu
