I remove all NotesSQL on my server, i try to install NotesSQL 3.02e, but i cannot find domino server.Then i try to delete the notes.ini file except the notes.ini under domino server root. Then, i restart domino, but in the list that i find in a ODBC configuration doesnt appear the domino server, only [local].
What’s the problem?
Thanks to all

NotesSQL was meant for a Notes client. Do you have a notes client on the server?
Also can you restate this part: ‘Then, i restart domino, but in the list that i find in a ODBC configuration doesnt appear the domino server, only [local].’ I don’t understand what mean you by ODBC configuration doesn’t appear the domino server.

That’s not true, NotesSQL will work with the client or domino or DOLS for that matter. Basically, it just needs a bunch of Notes/Domino .dlls on the same machine and the configuration for it to work.

I think you’re saying the NotesSQL DSN Setup dialog only shows Local and no servers. If you type in the name of the server, and tab off of that control, does it show a list of databases? Actually, even if it doesn’t, that’s ok. Type in the name of the .nsf relative to the data directory and see if you can make a connection.
If Notes is on the same machine, NotesSQL will always use the .dlls in that directory first (it will look in the order of Notes 6 then Domino 6 then Notes 5 the Domino 5 then DOLS). It looks for these based on the registry entries under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Lotus. I don’t believe it’ll skip past a specific version if it doesn’t find it’s Notes.INI, but could be wrong.
So, if you have Notes on the machine, make sure you have it set up correctly with and that client can connect to the server.
Most problems with the Setup Dialog have to do with different Notes.INIs on the same machine.
