So, to get FP3, you have to already have Notes 8.5 client installed? There's no current install that includes it?

I was hoping/expecting there was a current Notes client installation that has FP3 in it. No?

If someone has no client, they need to do the initial install and then apply the fix pack?

Subject: Yes.

The sequence is install 8.5.1 and then FP3.

Subject: Unfortunately, they are two different packages, but you may chain them on install, so it is a one stop process installation

Although always requested, it doesn’t make sense to me to integrate (some kind of slipstream) FP3 into a 8.5.1 install kit.What we’ve done:

Unzip the Lotus Notes 8.5.1 Web installkit into a directory, e.g. 851

Unzip the FP3 Web installkit into a directory on the same level, e.g. Fp3

Now, you may create a batch file on the root level of both directories like

@echo off

Cd 851

Setup.exe /V"…"

If Errolevel 1 GOTO END

Cd …\fp3

Setup.exe /V “…”

:END

So, but NOT integrating the FixPack into a Notes install source, it is very easy to exchange a FP3 with a FP4:

Delete the FP3 directory

Create a directory FP4

Unzip the Webkit

Replace CD…\fp3 with CD …\fp4 in the batch file
