7.02 FP1 installation workaround?

HCL Domino Domino Forum

Greetings,

I tried updating my Domino 7.02 server to FP1, it always gives me this reply

"you must create the environment variable NUI_NOTESDIR as path of the directory that contains notes/latest

e.g. for the default path /opt/lotus/notes/latest NUI_NOTESDIR=/opt/lotus export NUI_NOTESDIR"

Anyone has a work around on this issue ?

Thanks

Before installing FP1 you have to create the environment variable NUI_NOTESDIR with the Linux Console command “NUI_NOTESDIR=/opt/ibm/lotus” (or the directory, in which you installed the Lotus Program files). After that you must export the variable with the command “export NUI_NOTESDIR”. You can check the variable settings with the command “echo $NUI_NOTESDIR”. After these procedures I was able to install FP1 on my Linux Server.

If that doesn’t work copy the FP1 files into the directory /opt/ibm/lotus/latest and start from that point with ./install.

Good luck and Regards

Christian

Thanks for the tip Christian, But i have tried to test by installing a new Domino 7.02 server on path /opt/lotus then tried to apply the incremental upgrade FP1 after wards it works perfectly fine no need to configure the environment variables.

I have also noticed that the path where my binaries are installed on the server i wanted to apply the fixpack is on /opt/ibm/lotus/

Install FP1 from the notesdata directory. Does this solve the problem?
