Unable to access database

HCL Domino Domino Forum
1

We have just migrated our server from Lotus 4.6 to Lotus 6.5

A database that we developed using Notes 4.6 is giving some problems when accessing it with Notes 6.5

A) If the database is stored and accessed as a local database from a client PC, it can be accessed and edited.

B) If the database is stored and accessed as a local database from our server, it can be accessed and edited

C) However, if we attempt to access the database as a Domino share, i.e access it through Lotus Domino Server (either from client PCs or from the Server), the database becomes a read-only database, and all our field types is missing.

What could be the problem? Please help

Thanks

Subject: unable to access database

Open up the database locally and check the Access Control list of the database to ensure that you have the appropriate rights.

The reason everything is fine when you open the database locally is that (to the greater part) when you open a database locally you are automatically manager of it. But when you open it up via the server then the Access Control List settings (including Roles) are applied.

Just a thought.

Best of luck.
