I’ve setup my smartupgade and have been testing in a variety of situations. When dealing with a multi-user setup for a Restricted User, the local database templates are not updated (bookmark.nsf and names.nsf). With a power user there is no problem. At first I figured we could just correct manually later, but now I’ve found that in this scenario, I can’t even update the designs after the install. I receive the following message: design replace failed, cannot write or create file (file or disk is read-only)
The user I’m logged into has the appropriate rights at the OS level to these databases, as well as the template files.
Subject: Replace Design fails in multi-user environment
Found this in the 8.0.2 Release Notes…
Replace Design fails in multi-user environment Non-administrative users working in a Notes multi-user environment cannot successfully run “Replace Design” (File - Application - Replace Design) on their Personal Address Book/Contacts NAMES.NSF, or their Mail database, using the Notes 8 template, after installing or upgrading to Notes 8.0.1.
The workaround is for the administrative user who performed the 8.0.1 install or upgrade to perform the Replace Design task for each of the users who will be working in the installation’s shared directory. To do this in Windows Vista with UAC turned on, Notes must be run “as administrator”, which will allow the Replace Design feature to work properly. For related information about directories, see the “Windows Vista: Considerations for Notes install” and “Notes installation directories” release notes. These topics are also present in the Domino 8 Administrator information center available with this 8.0.1 beta release at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/domhelp/v8r0/index.jsp.
