Hi!I deleted some databases in order to free some disk space but now i’m getting this message:
HTTP Web Server: Lotus Notes Exception - File does not exist [‘db i deleted’]
How can i get to stop showing that message?
Thanks for your help.
Subject: Stop trying to use the database?
I’d assume that you’ll either need to restore the database, or stop trying to use it?
When you see the message ‘HTTP Web Server: Lotus Notes Exception - File does not exist [‘db i deleted’]’ - what is the request being made to the web server?
In other words - it appears that someone is trying to open to open the database from the web, which is why the HTTP task is reporting the error. Looking in your DOMLOG.nsf to see what request are being made.
Subject: File does not exist
As Mark said, somebody (or some program) is sending URL requests that are trying to access the deleted database via HTTP. The thing is, it might be more than one person/program doing it. It might be many. It might be hard to stop them coming in.
It’s been a long time, so I don’t recall the details, but I believe I recall that you can create rules for the HTTP task to do things like remapping URLs. I’ll have to leave the details to you or someone else to flesh out, but assuming you know all the filenames of alll the databases that you deleted, if you could remap theName.nsf for each one of them, pointing them to a landing page in an existing database that displays a friendly error message, I think that will stop the server from logging an error whenever those URL requests come in.
Another thought: if the URL requests are all coming from outside your network, your firewall might have the ability to create rules that block them.
