Hello from Austria,

yesterday I tried to install Lotus Notes Traveler 8.5.2 on SLES10 and failed with the following errors:

First try: ./Traveler -i console

./TravelerSetup -i console

Could anyone tell me what I´m doing wrong ??? I also tried the silent installation after customizing the installer.properties file but also had no successful installation.

Thanks a lot in advance

Hello,

See the documentation in the Domino Traveler Wiki for installing Traveler on Linux. For a GUI install see

http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/dominowiki.nsf/dx/Installing_Lotus_Notes_Traveler_on_Linux_LNT852.

But if you want to install without a UI, use the silent install method

Hi Bill,

just tried the silent installation and this type of installation worked.

But Traveler server still cannot be started - receive the error message

Traveler::AddInMain: Can’t create Java VM

Any suggestions ?? Thanks a lot
