Notes 8.5.1 Installation Issue

hcl-bot · September 3, 2010, 3:58am

I have an issue installing Notes 8.5.1 with a SCCM task sequence.

I have a different transform for each language and am installing directly off the network. Here is an example command line.

“Lotus Notes 8.5.1.msi” TRANSFORMS=“851_de_mu.mst” /qn /qb+

It seems to install ok but the C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Lotus\Notes\Data\Shared is missing NTF files.

Notes 8.5.1 then has to deinstalled, notes folders and registry entries need to be manually deleted and then Notes needs to be reinstalled.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Subject: Need logs please

in the installing users My Documents directory there will be a LotusInstall.log file. For SCCM deployments that probably wont be the the logged in user but in the LocalSsrvice account or something else.

you can send them to zamfir at ibm.com and I can take look.

Subject: pernames.ntf was missing

It seems other people have had this issue too. Can anyone help ? It seems all the ntf files in the notes shared directory are missing after a multi user installation in any language otherthan english .
