Whenever I try to synchronize my contacts I get a file does not exist error. How do I get my contacts to synchronize?

Subject: same problem here

Notes 8.5 beta 2 on Mac OSX. I enable contacts sync in preferences, and verified the selection is checked on the replicator page. When replication occurs, the status is showing “File does not exist” for the Synchronize Contacts entry.

The server is Domino 8.0.2.

Anyone else having issues with this?

Subject: never mind… it is working!

Posted too quick earlier. I discovered that my Location document was using an incorrect filename for my local mail file replica. Once I corrected this, the sync contacts started working.
