FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 9.1x
Windows

SYMPTOM(s):

WebClient not loading optional components.

Progress Splash screen not displaying.

CAUSE:

WebClient can not run correctly if the -Wa parameter is part of the Startup Parameters. This is because additional information is being wrapped around the Client startup string and the -Wa is a Windows Directive that special Windows Attributes will follow.

Since the wrapper statements are appended to the Startup Parameters they are ignored because the -Wa is already activate at that point.

FIX:

Do not use -Wa for the Startup Parameter. This is typically a legacy parameter and isn't likely needed for any version 9 application. Remove the -Wa parameter and test all printing functions to verify no printing functions have been impacted by the removal of the -Wa parameter.
