Virus scan instance pool could not be created rc=VSI_E_NULL_PARAM

Hi,

I'm trying to install virus scanner for KM within our portal.

In Note 964305 I found the instructions and executable to install Virus Scan Server.

At https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/downloads I found a prototypes package with dll's for several vendors of Virus Scansoftware and for various OS'.

For Sophos and McAfee I got the virus scan server working. However for Symantec I get following startup error for vscan_rfc:

[vsixx.c :VsiInit : 196]: VsiInit(): VSA_LIB = "D:All ProjectsSAPPortalVirusVSASYMNTintelvssym.dll"

[vscan_rfc.:VsiStartup :1491]: * E * The virus scan instance pool could not be created rc=VSI_E_NULL_PARAM!

[vscan_rfc.:mainU : 917]: * E * Starup failed. => Terminating

I tried with VSA_LIB as environment variable and in vscan_rfc.xml. Same result in both cases.

I added environment variable INITSERVERS (as described in the README that accompanies the prototypes) that points to the Symantec scan engine (servername:1344) and I added the path to vssym.dll to PATH variable.

We use the same Symantec scan engine to scan Portal Forums. The scan engine is installed for use with ICAP (port 1344).

The rest of the content of dev_VSCAN.trc:
