A DAOS mistery solved: which memo references that specific .NLO file?
   

Warning:
use this info carefully, it's about DAOS debugging, it's not documented, it can change in thje future, maybe it can impact the performance of your Domino server.


I'm working on a case about DAOS:
some .NLO files cannot be read by the Domino server and I get some error message on the console:
"Specified private keys does not exist"

I'm working with IBM Support to find the cause of this problem that luckily does not involve all mailboxes and not all memos (NLO files encrypted with a different server id ?, .NLO files corrupted ?, ...).

Before I openend the ticket with IBM, I was just wondering:

"I like black boxes like DAOS, but I really would like to know the memos inside a mailbox referencing those troublesome .NLO files I can see on the Domino console..."

Why?

Because I just wanted to open those memos and try to open the attachments via a Lotus Notes client and be really sure those Domino console error message were real, not a false positive....

I tried to open the daoscat.nsf but actually it is not easy to reverse-engineer its contents :-)

So I directly asked that question to IBM and after escalating the ticket I got the answer
  • insert DEBUG_DAOS_DIAGNOSTICS=1 in your Domino notes.ini (no need to restart Domino)
  • tell daosmgr LISTNLO MAP -V mailmymailbox.nsf  (as far as I know it's not case-sensitive)
After you issue the command you will get a text file (a comma-delimited file) with several column:
DOC_NOTEID
DOC_NOTEID_HEX
$FILE_RRV
$FILE_RRV_HEX
$FILE_ATTACHMENT_SIZE
$FILE_FILE_SIZE
RRV_STORAGE
RRV_HASHKEY
RRV_HASHKEYTYPE
RRV_HASH_VALID
RRV_TICKET_VER
RRV_TICKET_KEY
RRV_TICKET_HINT
CATALOG_DAOS_KEY
CATALOG_PATH
CATALOG_STATE
CATALOG_REF_COUNT



Using the info in that output file, especially the Note ID info (column one or two) I could open the memo referencing those troublesome .NLO files on the console, and find out that.... it's not a false positive! :-(

Hope it helps!

Domino webmail not loading in iframe? Try this xPages coding tip...
Tue, Feb 19th 2013 10:49a   Cristian D'Aloisio
Some days ago a friend of mine urgently contacted me via FB (!) about a problem with his latest Domino upgrade, version 8.5.3 FP3. He had a simple xPages web app showing Domino webmail in one the pages, using the old, much-hated (but often used...), iframe technique. After the Domino upgrade, the webmail was not available anymore in IE 9, unless he hit the compatibility button in IE. Who would tell all users to do that?! :-) Before any further investigation, we had to find a quick solution:I wa [read] Keywords: domino xpages properties wiki

Some time ago I opened a support ticket in IBM about a really tricky issue with DAOS: a few attachments referenced in the DAOS system could not be opened by the Domino server itself (error shown both in Domino console and to the Notes user). Not all, just a few hundreds attachments. The ticket escaleted weeks after weeks, but the support group could not help me, also I had the feeling they wanted to close the ticket asap... After a while I contacted Ed Brill who was so polite to also involve I [read] Keywords: domino ibm notes blogger server

Wow, I'm back to my blog after more than three months! I was rather busy because I decided to... change my life! To cut it short: me and my family decided to leave my beloved Bologna (Italy) and move to Germay, Karlsruhe town (Baden-Wurttemberg region). My wife Elly (who is is expert in the ERP subjects) had the chance to work with ABAS Software AG, a Karlsruhe-based multinational software company. So we both decided to make a big change in our life (especially for me and Kevin) and move to [read] Keywords: administration ibm lotus notes blogger community

Take a look to this IBM Technote # 1586180 : Blank return receipts sent to external sender We disabled the internal Domino disclaimer management (a setting in the configuration document inside the names.nsf) and reloaded the Domino router config (tell router update config). Now it works. BTW, we use the fabulous third-party product called Crossware Mail Signature to manage all signature needs: simple and effective. [read] Keywords: domino ibm blogger
