PM81118: unsupported XML msxml4.dll

 

APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • unsupported XML msxml4.dll in ASE
    Microsoft XML Parser and XML Core Sessions Unsupported.  It
    appears that the version of msxml4.dll that is installed and
    used by the Dynamic Analysis Scanner is file version
    4.10.9404.0; this version is no longer supported by Microsoft.
    the expectation is that the AppScan installer would include and
    use a supported version of XML core services (since MSXML is not
    listed as a pre-requisite installation for the Dynamic Analysis
    Scanner)
    
    Workaround:
    apply the microsoft update listed here to upgrade the file to
    version 4.20.9870.0:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/954430.
