Error messages from forms85_x.ntf

Hi all,

we got a bunch of error messages in our log.nsf / and ddm:

Cataloger was unable to open database forms85_x.ntf: File does not exist.

Or:

Design error for database ‘forms85_x.ntf’: File does not exist

when I look into the file section of the admin client, I can see that db listed as "Lotus iNotes Extension Forms (8.5), but I cannot look into properties or ACL, (full access admin). this “behavior” is the same on all our servers.

Is this normal for this template? I think not, otherwise I would have found threads posted in this forum …

thanks in advance for any help

Subject: Corrupted

You definitely have a corrupted database. You cant event open the ACL with Full Access?

Try this:

fixup -j -f -l -v forms85

compact -F -K -U -C forms85

updall -R forms85

Otherwise, I would just get a copy from a new install.

Subject: ACL - not even with full access

no i cannot.

I think the reason is the propercase name (Forms85_x) and our Linux Servers, which have a script to translate everything to lowercase.

but thanks for your answer :slight_smile:

Subject: good point

You are right, I missed that! =)

Then you lost me. Can’t you change the name to lowercase manually and exclude it?

Subject: yes we can

and we did :wink:

and I would like to deactivate that script … we needed it when we moved the servers from windows to linux, but meanwhile all clients are new, no one has old (wrongCases) links left.
