I’m running a server and clients on my laptop. Every so often, I go to check how a form will look in IE. After doing Design → Preview in Web → IE, it’s as if my server has crashed. However, there ends up being 2 nhttp tasks running.
When I delete the correct process, everything is fine. It’s as if Domino doesn’t know which process to use (which is understandable) and gives up.
I haven’t been able to pinpoint the precise circumstances to reproduce this 2nd process. Has anyone else come across this?
Subject: Two / Double NHTTP
If you are running a server the NHTTP task will launch when the server starts. It executes from the x:/Lotus/Domino directory.
When you preview something from the designer client another instance of NHTTP will launch from the x:/Lotus/Notes directory. This allows notes developers to preview on local (http://localhost/db.nsf/designElement).
Since you are already running the server NHTTP task, I’m sure it would lock up port 80 since both NHTTP task are trying to listen on that port.
