Hello,

I am trying to connect to notes database using LDDJ-JDBC.and getting following error.

Error:–

This database is currently being used by someone else. In order to share a Notes database, all users must use a Domino

Server instead of a File Server.

Domino server is also running.

My database is located in C:\Lotus\Domino\Data\Insead\VersionX.nsf

and LDDJ is installed in

C:\Lotus\Notes\JDBCSQl

I have searched for this error in the discuss form but there is nothing related to LDDJ-JDBC.

Do I need to change the directroy for LDDJ to C:\Lotus\Domino\JDBCSQL

Could you please help me to get rid of this lock error.??

Thanks a lot

You could search the domino 4-5 forum, there are a lot of these cases there.One thing I read a lot, which was said to help, was restarting the Domino server or it’s service.

Thanks for the replying…I searched in notes domino forum also but could not see any thing to solve this problem

We can restart the server and reboot the machine but again when we use the program the file is blocked

I guess it is because i am givng the path and it tried to connect via file system

connStr = “jdbc:domino:/”+“C:\Lotus\Domino\Data\insead\” +VersionX,nsf;

To avoid this problem i use

connStr = “jdbc:domino:/insead\VersionX.nsf/VERDI-INSEAD02/CALT;”

and the data base is not locked in this case but it prompts lotus id password dialog.

and I would like to by pass this.

Please let me know if you have any idea to solve this problem

Thanks

Pradeep,The message means taht the server thinks that the database is Local and not on the Server.

Are you by chance using a server and client on the same machine?

If you are try opening the Server and copying the database (via Notes) and not the File system up to the server.
