Sametime Auto-Status Changes troubleshooting
Wed, Feb 1st 2012 8:11a Urs Meli Today I ran into something strange.
A user tried to enable the auto-status change feature in sametime embedded. Everytime he opened the preferences he got an error message. And when he changed the
properties they wouldn't save.
After some investigation I discovered, that the file notesdataworkspace.metadata.pluginscom.ibm.collaboration.realtime.alertmanagerautostatus.xml was empty but 1kb big.
So I copied the file from another workstation. After the user had restarted the notes clien [read] Keywords: collaboration

SPNEGO - SSO from Hell
Fri, Jan 27th 2012 5:10a Urs Meli Just during Lotusphere I got the message that our SPNEGO support stoppt working.
Right back from Orlando I checked everything in the troubleshooting guide . Nothing helped. No one did any changes to our dominos or to the active directory.
Wireshark revealed a KRB_AP_ERR_MODIFIED error, while authentication. So I lurked around the internet for this error without success. Some pages indicated, that it is a replication problem between domain controllers. But dcdiag.exe didn't find anything. [read] Keywords: domino

NotesDateTime to Java Timestamp
Wed, Nov 16th 2011 6:11a Urs Meli Based on this work I needed a function to convert a notesdatetime to a java timestamp.
I changed the getTimestamp method to
Function getTimestamp(dt As Variant) As String
Const EPOCH_DATE = "01/01/1970 00:00:00"
Const DT_TYPENAME= "NOTESDATETIME"
Dim epochDT As New NotesDateTime(EPOCH_DATE)
Dim tempDT As New NotesDateTime(Now)
If(TypeName(dt) = DT_TYPENAME) Then
tempDT.LSLocalTime = dt.Lslocaltime
Else
tempDT.LSLocalTime = dt
End If
getTimestamp = cstr(tempDT.TimeDifference(epo [read] Keywords: lotus

Managed beans and the revenge of the ACL
Fri, Oct 14th 2011 7:11a Urs Meli Yesterday I started the upgrade process for pure notes client database. The plan was to put a xpage database besides the original notes db.
Instead of using views as datasources I tried to do it with beans.
Very simple: Xpages and managed beans When I openend the XPage, there was no data. So I put a lot of debug statements in my java code.
I could track it down until I found that Document doc = view.getFirstDocument(); returned alwas null. So I double checked the view: there were document [read] Keywords: acl

Contact's Picture
Mon, Oct 3rd 2011 7:09a Urs Meli Just finished a small agent, which sync's all company contacts into the mailfiles.
Now every employee has all the contact infos from the others on their smartphone.
It copies even the sametime picture to the contact document.
We are 25 employees at the moment, so its just a small amount of data.
The agent is based on http://www.lotusgeek.com/LotusGeek/LotusGeekBlog.nsf/d6plinks/ROLR-78SJJ2 and http://www.openntf.org/internal/home.nsf/project.xsp?action=openDocument&name=Lot [read] Keywords: agent

Script Library from Hell
Mon, Aug 8th 2011 10:12a Urs Meli After I upgraded my notesclient to 8.5.2 FP 3 I encountered a strange error.
I couldn't open the library in the editor. Once open, the client would crash after the first click.
After 5 crashes I switched to the old editor. It openend. It didn't crash. BUT I couldn't save.
Ok. there were a few red lines in the declaration section. Correcting them did drop random line of codes to null.
After a lot of swearing I exported the library to an lss file. Opened it with gVim and what d [read] Keywords: script library

Compatibility
Fri, Jul 1st 2011 6:16a Urs Meli I just stumbled over a "using document" in a customers notes application.
The original document was created in march '96. Since then the app was modified just a little bit here and there, added some new functionality.
Whats exciting about that? The base coding from 96 still runs in 2011, Notes 4 to Notes 8.5... amazing
