[net.micro.pc] Cannot load COMMAND ?

stevens@hsi.UUCP (09/10/84)

Anyone know what the error message

	Memory allocation error
	Cannot load COMMAND, system halted

means with PC-DOS 2.0 ?  We have an application program compiled
with Lattice C, V2.12 that generates this error after the program
calls exit().  Tracing it with the debugger shows that exit() calls
_exit(), which calls xcexit() which finally does an "int 21" with
AH=0x4c (Terminate a process).  Whats puzzling is that the program
always runs fine with one set of input data but always produces the
above error with another set of data.  We are not malloc'ing
ourselves at all.  Thanks for any leads ...
