I have a strange problem with one single database on a Domino 6.5.1 Server. While I am able to authenticate users over the web with any other database, I can’t with this one.
Default and Anonymous have no access, but the users and the server have. Still I don’t even get the login form at all. The server console just tells me this error message:
HTTP Web Server: Lotus Notes Exception - You are not authorized to access that database
The database basicly starts with a page that redirects the user via javascript to the document he is allowed to edit. I have the same database running on a Domino 5.0.11 server and it works perfectly fine there. The redirect link is generated dynamically and correct.
Subject: HTTP Web Server: Lotus Notes Exception - You are not authorized to access that database
Is the redirect to a file server or to another database? Is the database on the same server? If you are pointing to a document on a file server, check to make sure the server has access rights to the drive and the drive is mapped correctly.
Another thing to check is the last time your address books replicated - may be an issue there. Fast check is to just go into your entry and re-type your password.

I was able to fix the problem. The databases properties were set to “not allow access via URL”. This property is ignored on 5.x servers and is new with Release 6.x
