You may be missing an item from your UUPC.RC.  I had this problem
with an early OS/2 port, and found I had to specify an Organisation.
Since my system has worked fine since, I haven't checked the code
to see if it is still fussy.  The relevant checks were in source
file ACTIVE.C.  If it didn't find _all_ 11 items, it bombed out
with the error message you get (or a very similar one).

Good luck.  I might add that this port from Kai Uwe Rommel is
very good.  He's made it heaps faster than the original, and it
is considerably improved in other ways.
