Domino 8.5.2 fixpack 3 iNotes error
Fri, Jul 22nd 2011 7:10a Kevin IBM recently released a new fixpack for Lotus Domino 8.5.2: fixpack 3. Today, we installed this fixpack on our mailserver. The installation didn’t produce any problems and after the installation, the server started normally.
At first, it looked like a successful upgrade, untill we tried to go to our webmail (iNotes). After logging in, we got the following error:

Lotus Traveler 8.5.2.3 maintenance release
Thu, Jun 16th 2011 6:11a Kevin IBM released an update for Lotus Traveler, which adds more stability and performance to the system. The updates are for the server and for the clients. This update brings Traveler to version 8.5.2.3.
One interesting feature that has been added, is a defragmentation option for the Traveler database. This should help performance in large environments. The defragmentation will start once you start the Traveler server again after upgrading, and can take a while before it completes (more than half an [read] Keywords: domino

Quota calculation and transactional logging
Tue, Apr 19th 2011 5:10a Kevin Do you impose quotas on your users and have transactional logging enabled on your Domino server? Then this might be a nice little tip for you.
By default, quotas in Domino are based on the filesize of a (mail)file. This means that quotas only decrease when you compact a database. This can be major annoyance for users when they are over their quota, because when they delete mails, the quota doesn’t decrease until the compacter task has run on the server (in most cases, this only happens at [read] Keywords: domino

Generate .qkr link file for Quickr
Tue, Mar 29th 2011 8:12a Ken In a previous version of Quickr there was an option to copy a quickr attachment as a link within a file, a .qkr file to be more precise.
We are now using Quickr 8.5 and I can’t find this option. The only way to generate a .qkr file is to go to “Preferences…” in your Places Monitor and select the option to replace links when sending mail in Lotus Notes ánd select “use .qkr file” when replacing attachments. This is not what I need.

Lotus Traveler task did not respond within the allotted time frame
Fri, Mar 11th 2011 5:09a Kevin I saw this error passing by on the Domino console a while ago. At the same time, some Traveler users reported that they weren’t able to sync their mobile device. I’m not entirely sure where to put the blame for this error: slow data connection on the device or a high server load, but the solution is fairly simple to implement.
There are two things you can do:
1) Add the following lines to the notes.ini file of the Traveler server .
NTS_IPC_TCP_Port=50125,
NTS_IPC_TCP_Port2=50126, [read] Keywords: domino

IE 8 + ActiveX and IE 8 + ActiveX is not always the same
Mon, Jan 24th 2011 7:16a Sven With Quickr 8.5 we don’t have to use IE that much any more. A lot of controls have been modified in order to allow Firefox-users to upload files too.
Uploading themes and forms are still linked to IE though. The logic behind the ActiveX components appears to be too complex for now to change it all into java.
Last week I was working on a Quickr project when I noticed that even with my IE8 I was unable to add an html file. The spot where the ActiveX should appear, showed a line: ‘Code [read] Keywords: quickr

ACL groups vs. access delegation
Tue, Dec 21st 2010 11:17a Kevin There is a bug in the mail85.ntf template that makes it impossible to add ACL groups to “access & delegation” in your mailbox preferences. When trying to add an ACL group, you will get an error message saying: “The directory server is down or the user (or group) you want to grant access to your mail file could not be found in the server directory”. Adding other group types is possible, but it should also be possible to add ACL groups (which I think is logical).

Dijit DateTextBox in Domino Form
Mon, Nov 29th 2010 12:16p Ken I think this might come in handy for people that are ‘pimping’ Standard Notes web applications with dojo. I’m not talking about XPages here, just a simple Notes Web Form.
I’m not going to explain how to incorporate dojo in your form, that’s fairly simple and explained on the Dojo website.
However, if you start using the dijit.form.DateTextBox, you should note that the date format used by dojo is “yyyy-mm-dd”. I added a date field on my form, and added &# [read] Keywords: domino

BES Express for Domino is here!
Wed, Nov 17th 2010 10:12a Kevin BES Express was finally released for IBM Lotus Domino, months after the release for Exchange. We installed our first server today on a Domino 8.5.2 server and everything went as smooth as it could. Take into account that BES Express is only supported on Domino 8.0.2, 8.5.1 and 8.5.2, and only for the 32-bit versions of Domino.
The installation takes a while and probably requires a reboot of your server. It doesn’t require a lot of changes to your Domino configuration. One thing you will pr [read] Keywords: domino

IE8 is not always really IE8…
Mon, Sep 6th 2010 10:26a Ken I am involved in the development of a new intranet for one of our customers. We deciced to develop for IE8, Firefox, Chrome, but not for IE8-.
Granted, we also did it to make our lives a bit easier, but most of the users are no longer using IE7 and we feel we should promote modern (and/thus safer) browsers. The application itself will also give a nice warning if users are using IE8-…
Well, everything was fine until one user said the website looked slightly different on his pc. Not too many [read] Keywords: lotus
