Where is nupgrade.exe?

Hi,

I am planning to migrate my Outlook Mail & Calendar entries to Lotus Notes but could not find the nupgrade.exe file in the notes directory (C:\Program Files\Lotus\notes) in XP. I have performed a file search but to no avail. I have also read from the Internet that the file is somehow affected by a virus and I suspect that the file has been deleted by my anti-virus program. Do you have any idea where I can download the file or if somebody could just email me the file if it’s small in size. By the way, my email address is randy@execs.com.

Thanks.

Hi,

You must have previously installed the upgrade wizard either locally, as part of the user’s Lotus Notes client, or on a shared network directory.

You must only choose this option during installation process.

Subject: Error message… after executing nupgrade 4

Thanks. I have now the nupgrade.exe file. But when I executed it an error message appeared saying “NOEMIG: Setup error. Internet address is missing.”

This is what I typed in the command line: “C:\nupgrade 4 c:\a_PersonalFolders.nsf”. Is this correct or did I miss something?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Randy,

your command line is definitely not correct.

The path for the nupgrade is usually c:\lotus\notes and the addional parameter for path and database is not allowed.

The information about NAMES, DIRECTORY, MAILFILE are being taken from the notes.ini entries.

I would like to suggest you to

  1. create a shortcut on your desktop that pointed on e.g. c:\lotus\notes\nupgrade.exe

without further parameter.

  1. If you starting the shortcut, you will see a wizard that guides you through the whole process.

I hope it will work.

Best of luck

Frank
