Greetings fellow 'Tuners!
If you click “Check for Updates” and get new rules and a new template, don’t get too excited. This mid-month release is a fix release. I received feedback via the forums, email and SameTime regarding folks having an issue with DCT. The symptom is the repeated presence of the “Before you can use the Domino Configuration Tuner you need to restart your Notes Client” upon opening the application. The DCT applet resource had a jar with a time stamp that was exactly an hour off from what exists on disk. While these files are the same, the time stamp difference causes the application to attempt to deploy a new jar. The currently deployed jar is ‘in use’ at this point, causing a race condition which presents itself as the symptom described above.
If you encounter this issue, please download a fresh copy of DCT.NTF and replace the design of your existing DCT. Once the design has been replaced, DCT should behave as expected. Thanks to all who reported this - all feedback is appreciated.
Peace out.
