Lotus Notes Sametime 8.5 – Meeting Server Tipp

April 23, 2010 – 1:58 pm

During the installation and configuration I came across a problem with slide conversion. Although I had configured the system variables according to the documentation, the slide conversion did not work.

No document was converted and I therefore was not able to share documents during a meeting.

Some hours later and with the help from my Notes Buddies at the German Notes Forum ( www.atnotes.de ) I finally was able to solve this issue.

As the underlying OS for Sametime 8.5 I use Suse SLES 10.2 with Gnome. It seems that the installer does not install any JAVA JVM or JRE. After installing the JAVA 1.4.2 package, the slide conversion works now.

So, if you intend to install Sametime 8.5 Meeting Server make sure that you have JAVA installed for the slide conversion.
