Server Console LOCKED!!

I had created a PMR regarding a little problem with Domino 8.5 and Designer. After a while I got an email from support, kindly asking for more information. I should create a console log and therefore enable some settings on the server.

  • set config console_log_enabled=1
  • set config debug_threadid=1
  • start consolelog

This is some kind of standard procedure for IBM support … I did as I was told and typed the first command on the console and confirmed by hitting the return key.

WHOOPS !!! The console is totally locked.

noaccess

After the first shock was over, I mailed IBM support that I cannot send a console log file because blah blah …

IBM immediately called me on the phone and explained that this can happen and I now have to restart the server.

There is an internal technote for this issue. I’m not sure if I can publish it here, but it says that the error occurs, because debug_outfile= is still in the notes.ini.

After investigating the notes.ini on the server it was found that the parameter in question is not in the ini file. …

Your turn now, IBM.


Attempt to perform folder operation on non-folder note

Every time I edit a view in Domino Designer 8.5, I see the following message on the server console.

05.05.2009 07:17:37   Database note open error: NT0000011A document in database d:\Programme\IBM\Lotus\Domino\data\test.nsf opened by CN=Heinz Ulrich Krause/O=Witte/C=de: Attempt to perform folder operation on non-folder note.

This happens on new created databases as well as old ones.

Steps to reproduce

  • Create a new database on the server ( 8.5 ). No template assigned
  • Open the database in Domino Designer and navigate to the view category
  • Double click the “unknown” view to open.

You can also create a new view and save it. Each time you edit a view the error occurs.

Anyone else seen this, too ? I have already created a PMR ( # 61149 668 668 ) with IBM

UPDATE 07-MAY-2009:

Dear Mr Krause,

I just wanted to send you a quick mail to let you know that your PMR has reached L2 support.
This will be assigned to one of our engineers tomorrow and you will be contacted by them then.

UPDATE 21-MAY-2009:
Dear Mr Krause,

I just wanted to send you a quick mail to keep you up to date regarding your issue. I have since been researching this error message and I have
come across an issue documented in Software Problem Report that seems to match.

This is SPR # MNIR7RSTYU: Error message does appear when copying views: “Attempt to perform folder operation on non-folder note” It documents the exact same error message as you for 85 when changing
properties of a view.

Error message:

Database note open error: NT000363B2 document in database E:\Lotus\Domino\data\……._Template.nsf opened by CN=…..: Attempt to perform folder operation on non-folder note.

This is currently under investigation by development.

I have gone ahead and created a customer report for you to add weight to this SPR. This has APAR # LO40706. The more customer reports are added to this the higher the priority this SPR will become.
