Owerflow on IE using webadmin.nsf log report

Dear all,

When you try to use webadmin.nsf with IE for administrating your server, you get an overflow box ( before it ends the complete load ).

Here is the log message from log.nsf

Any idea about this :

Many thanks to all

Are you seeing this error new in 6.01 or did you never install/run 6.0 anyway? What are your OS locale settings set to?

thanks

Hello,

It appears with version 6.01CF for Solaris

The clients use Win 2K sp3 or sp2 IE 5.5 and 6.

It does not work also in Netscape under Solaris 8.

I suppose it’s a CF1 bug !

Thanks for your help

Subject: RE: I’ll look into it, but have some questions

Are you saying that it worked OK for you with 6.0 for Solaris and after you upgraded to 6.01CF it stopped working?

Subject: I have reproduce the bug, here is the method

case 1My Sun Solaris Server is connected with a text console. When you launch the server from

the text console ( login user : notes ) :

./server -jc -c &

The server works, but you have this problem “overflow” when you try to open webadmin.nsf from IE.

case 2

From my computer I have Humming Bird “exceed” XWindows emulator.

If I open a graphical cde session and I lauch the server with the same login (notes ), the overflow problem does not appear.!

The big problem is if I close( just log off ) the Xwindow session on my computer , the Lotus server remains UP , the java console port 2050 stops and the http server crash.

The only solution is to have a Screen and a Keyboard on the rear of the Lotus Notes server and never close the Xwindows session.

I have my server in a rack, then for me is not possible, because the V120 server don’t have a keyboard and screen output.

Where to focus ?

IBM need to check when you close your XWindow session , keep the javaconsole port always open ( port 2050) and survey the HTTP server.

Or when you launch the server from a text console, why this overflow problem occurs ?

Many Thanks for your Help

Case 1:I don’t know why you are getting overflow problem when you run ServerController and WebAdmin combination. But I can help you with second case.

Case 2:

I don’t have Exceed on my machine to try. But the following should work for you.

You can set ShowControllerStatusWindow=0 in notes.ini of your server’s data directory to write the controller messages to a file instead of coming on screen. The filename is based on the LogFilename that is set in dcontroller.ini. The file extension will be “.out”. This file is created in data directory of the server by default.

By default this variable is set to True. You can either not put in notes.ini or put it equal to 1 to see messages in the window where you started.

After setting this variable to 0, got to your Exceed Xwindow and start the server in the background as “server -jc -c&”. This will detach the controller from the window. Now you can delete that Exceed X window or log off, Server controller should be still running and listening on the port.

Let me know if this did not work for you.

Daniel,

I did try here on one of our machines running exceed. I was able to run X window and start controller on the background as I explained in my previous posting. I was able to delete the window and still have the controller running on my Solaris box. I don’t know if you are running a specific way when you start an Exceed X window. Please give as much information as you can so that I can try the same way you are doing to reproduce the problem. Hopefully we can see what is happening in your case.

I am surprised it did not work for you, I will try here and get back to you.

OK, many thanks I will be try tuesdayI will send you a mail…:slight_smile:

Subject: RE: I have reproduce the bug, here is the method

It looks like you have a couple of different problems going on here, and none of them lend themselves to easy troubleshooting via an online discussion forum. I’d suggest that you try to get this resolved through proper and official IBM Lotus software support channels.

yes,

I have installed directly the 6.0.1 version, the I have upgraded…

really strange

Subject: Does not happen to me. I had 6.0, 6.0.1, 6.0.1CF1 installed in order.
