"Database already added to your workspace" error in 6.5 - fix

Hi,I received the above error when trying to open my 6.5 client and on clicking “OK” the client closes - same for the Admin Client.

A few other LDD members have run into this problem with earlier versions of the R6 client and the solution is to remove “desktop6.ndk” from the data directory. It was suggested to turn off the “prompt for location” then copy desktop6.ndk back into the data directory, but this didn’t work for me.

I would be interested to hear if anyone finds the cause for this.

Thanks, Mike

Renaming or deleting the desktop6.ndk worked for me, but you lose your desktop bookmarks.

Yeah, this works for me too but loosing all my bookmarks :frowning:

BTW …why this problem are not reported at IBM Support??

Renaming desktop6.ndk worked for me. I didn’t loose any bookmarks which was great. After starting notes again it has created a fresh copy of desktop6.ndk

Thanks for the fix lads’n’lasses

Re-installing the client solved the problem for me.

Worked for sometime in 6.5, and now getting the same thing. Removed the Cache.ndk to no avail. Will also try the desktop6, but am anxiously watching.
