Error Message:

WINSOCK Error: Not initialized.

Explanation:

The Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) failed to initialize the sockets library. This problem occurs if the Internet Information Services is loaded prior to the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) or if TCP/IP is not bound at the top of the protocol stack.

User Action:

Check the bindings, and verify that TCP/IP is bound at the top of the protocol stack. If you continue to receive this message, remove Internet Information Services, reinstall TCP/IP, and then reinstall Internet Information Services. User suggestions: 1. Check that the WinSock DLL (Winsock.dll or Wsock32.dll) is in the current path. 2. Check that the WinSock DLL file is from the same vendor as your underlying protocol stack. (WinSock DLL files must be supplied by the vendor who provided your underlying protocol stack). 3. You cannot use more than one WinSock implementation simultaneously. If you have more than one WinSock DLL file on your system, be sure the first one in the path is appropriate for the network subsystem currently loaded. 4. Check your WinSock implementation documentation to be sure all necessary components are currently installed and configured correctly.
