Struggling with NSFDB2 
Wed, Nov 5th 2008 2:52a Urs Meli
Yesterday I made NSFDB2 working on my test servers. I had this strange errormessage: "Error managing DB2 groups....DB2 Authorization violation" when I tried to compact a database to DB2.I did the installation 3 or 4 times. DB2 enable ran successfull but compacting never succeeded. After checking every parameter several times I found the mistake. I entered a path for the "DB2 datastore directory". When I removed the entry for this field, compacting ran without issues. [read] Keywords: nsfdb2

Recompile in 8.0.2

Today I was forced to recompile a database with Notes 8.0.2. I was very surprised. Recompile time dropped from about an hour (in Notes 7.0.2) to 5 minutes. [read] Keywords: notes

Connecting to a remote db2 instance
Fri, Sep 19th 2008 11:48a Urs Meli
Short tipp: If you plan to enable db2 on a remote server, don't start the local DB2 command center.I did it to test the connection between my domino server and the db2 server. Afterwards I was not able to enable the db2 on the domino server. I got a strange communication error. And some hint about the catalog.So I started the command center, removed my db2 node from the list. Tada! Now I could enable the db2 on my domino. [read] Keywords: domino

DB2 integration is quite tricky. Converting a notes database to DB2 is simple. But the impacts can be horrible I tried it with a simple database, no problem. A more advanced database with 350 views didn't work as expected. I was able to open the database but some views won't display. I got a "index is corrupt...." message when I've tried to open it. Compact, fixup, updall nothing worked. I tried it with 3 different copies, all with the same result.Either google nor the notes forum had a solutio [read] Keywords: notes

Shoot yourself in the foot with vmware
Wed, Jul 30th 2008 5:49p Urs Meli
Today I found a way to shoot yourself in the foot with vmware server. It is very simple, if you store your vmware images on USB drives like I do. I tried to be smart. To copy some big files in the vm I mounted a second USB drive into the vm. Everything worked fine. When I went home I stopped the vm's and removed the drives. Next time I startet the vm windows xp accidentially changed my drive letters. Now the when the vm tried to start, it took over the USB drive which hosted the vm. BOOOM [read] Keywords: server

Can anybody remember every single username/password for every website?
I mean I'm registered in dozens of websites: ebay, facebook, xing, gmail, gmx, bleedyellow, jazz.net, openntf.
Some good sites like bleedyellow let me choose my mail address as a login name.
Other sites like jazz.net want me to find some fanzy login/screenname.
Grrrreat. My preferred name is always occupied by some other moron.
By now I have dozens of loginnames with different numbers etc.

Agent Performance Tuning - Stupid mistakes
Wed, Jul 2nd 2008 4:06p Urs Meli
Today I tested my agent, which updated some calendar entries, which were replicated via LEI from a MSSQL database.
Lei replicated the data in a notesdatabase in under a minute. After the replication, LEI started my agent, which took more then 1900 seconds to process around 1000 entries.
The problem was, that the LEI replication job started every 30 minutes. The agent stopped with the error "document has been deleted".
Change the replication schedule would solve the problem. But more than 30 mi [read] Keywords: agent

LEI Horror
Fri, Jun 27th 2008 5:50a Urs Meli
Yesterday we fought a very strange problem in LEI 8.0.1. We created a new replication activity from an MS SQL source to a Notes database. About 80'000 records. Every time we stop this activity, either by hand or by timeout, the server will crash. The server then reboots and crashes again with the same errormessage: To start the server, we had to disable the LEI task in the notes.ini file, start the server, delete all the entries in LEILOG.nsf, enabel LEI in the notes.ini and restart the [read] Keywords: ibm

Foundations - Part 1
Wed, Jun 25th 2008 7:07p Urs Meli
Today I got the Lotus Foundations 1 Server on my vmware server up and running.
The installation was very easy: connect the iso image to the server and boot.
All the configuration is done through a simple webinterface
The domino installation and configuration was fully automated.
After 3 hours (on my slow vm) I had a complete windows domain controller, domino, ftp, fileserver, dns server,.... up and running.
Next point will be the Notes Client installation. but it is too late now [read] Keywords: domino

Messing with the content type
Mon, Jun 16th 2008 4:51p Urs Meli
Today, while I was editing a webagent my domino 8.0.1 testserver suddenly crashed. Everytime I started the agent, my server would crash. NSD showed just a FATAL error in nhttp with a "Access Violation" message. I added lots of debug messages to the openlog database. These messages showed me, that the agent had finished successfull before the server crashed. After investigating the agent a lttle more, adding some additional Print statements, I found the problem.

Problems changeing the password on a citrix access gateway appliance

Anyone tried to customize a Citrix Access Gateway Appliance (CAGA)? I did Everything went fine. I successfully changed the default UI to our corporate UI. I was able to login and get to my applications. The only problem so far appeard, when the password expired. Changeing the password was not possible anymore, at least with IE7. Firefox worked fine. In the CAGA logfile I found the following lines: (05/26/08 15:26:27):L10:LOGSVRE:3220:98311:server:aacd::aac.c:10424:SESSINFO:27::next page v [read] Keywords: applications

Rebuilding the ICL database by hand didn't solve the problem. After some more investigation I found in the names.nsf the solution. Under Configuration\Certificates are the certificates stored. After switching "Process Enabled" to No and restarting the ca Process, I was finally able to rebuild the ICL [read] Keywords: bleedyellow
