I have migrated my Domino Servers to Release 6.0.1 CF1 from Release 4.In release 4 The Catalog task was working fine.

After update, when Catalog task is executed I have this error message: “Unable to replace obsolete catalog: The name is not in the list”

The template is OK. I have deleted catalog.nsf. When I execute Load catalog, the server don´t create one new catalog.nsf database and the same error message appears.

Can anyone help me?

Problem

A Notes/Domino 5.x customer receives the following error after removing the LocalDomainServers or LocalDomainCatalogServers group name from the Access Control List (ACL) of the CATALOG.NSF database:

“Unable to replace obsolete catalog: The name is not in the list.”

Steps to reproduce this issue:

  1. Install a Domino 5.0.2c server.

  2. Start the Catalog task: Load catalog on server console. This creates the CATALOG.NSF file.

  3. Remove the LocalDomainServers entry from the ACL and make sure the server is listed in another group (for example: MyServers).

  4. Start the Catalog task again.

  5. Note the error displayed on the server console is: “Unable to replace obsolete catalog: The name is not in the list.”

  6. Put the LocalDomainServers group back in the ACL.

  7. Start the Catalog task and note that it works fine.

The same error message is received after deleting the LocalDomainCatalogServers group from the ACL.

This problem was reported to Lotus Quality Engineering and determined to be an unsupported configuration. The Catalog task sets these ACL entries to enable proper functionality on the CATALOG.NSF and the Domain Indexing Tasks. You may use your own groups (for example: MyServers), but LocalDomainServers and LocalDomainCatalogServers group names must be in the ACL, even though you may not be using them.
