• Installation

    By Dwain A Wuerfel 1 decade ago

    I did have the same problems as discussed by the others under the defects section and after reading all the threads I was able to get the application running by doing the following in no particular order:

    1) determine location of nnotes.dll

    2) ensure the 'Location' and 'MailServer' in the Notes.INI have values

    3) install application in same path as your notes.exe (should be same location as #1)

    4) ensure you have the proper path in your 'Start In' for your shortcut

    5) run the shortcut as administrator

    Caveats

    1) you can type in a specific server name, but if you use the button to select a server and type one it doesn't stay

    2) can only search NSF, but I submitted a feature request to search NTF

      Out of curiousity, what was the path to your notes installation?

      I think I may know why some people are having an issue with this - for me and all of the machines i have ever worked on, it has found my path and auto-added it for me... and the people I know personally who use this as well. Sometimes its hard to fix a bug if you have not reproduced it. I am beginning to suspect a reason for this and will try a patch in 1.0.5.

       

      Searching NTFs sounds like a good idea.  I'll add that ... if there is a release 1.0.5...

       

      I'd like to make a new release, but not having a lot of free time at the moment.

       

      Also I do not develop in Domino anymore. Mainly coding in C# MVC, .NET, Java, Spring MVC, and creating SOA gadgets (ESB mediators, etc), and web dev with hot towel (durandel, breeze, knockout, and kendo ui [or sometimes ext-js]). Quite a departure I guess.

       

      But. I enjoy working with C/C++, so I am sure I will get to it sooner or later.
