Trouble accessing Lotus Notes DB Via ODBC NotesSQL 8 driver.

Hello,
I am using Crystal Reports version XI and am trying to access lotus notes database via an ODBC connection. My reports have been running sucessfully but we recently upgraded to Lotus Notes 8. I was receiving error messages stating that the ODBC driver was not compatible so I upgraded to Lotus Notes 8 SQL driver. Now I am receiving the following errors.
Crystal Reports
Database Connector Error: 'IM005:[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_DBC failed'
Crystal Reports
Logon failed.
Details: 01000:[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The driver doesn't support the version of ODBC behavior that the application requested (see SQLSetEnvAttr).
I am now using NotesSQL 8 and Lotus Notes 8, is there something that I need for crystal to recognize them.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Stacy

Hi Stacy,
I would appear Lotus changed the way their ODBC driver works from version 6. According to our [platforms |https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e09198a1-911e-2b10-179f-ce8eed51aed0] for CR XI we only support Lotus Notes 6.
We can't fix this now but you may want to ask Lotus if they know of any work arounds or updates to make it backward compatable.
You may want to try donwloading CR XI R2 SP4 and use your XI keycode to see if that works.
Thank you
Don

Accessing Lotus Notes from SAP

I'm trying to access data of Lotus Notes databases from an ABAP using OLE.
If the Lotus Notes Class returns a "common" variable (string, number or another object), there is no problem, but when it returns an "stringArray" or a "valueArray" variable I cannot get the value.
For example, it happens when trying to get the value of a field from a document:
CALL METHOD OF w_document 'GetItemValue' = w_value
EXPORTING #1 = 'FieldName'.
this method returns a "valueArray" value and defining the w_value as string or character in ABAP is does not crash but the content of w_value after having executed this method is always blank.
Any idea on how to solve it?
Thanks

We have Web-enabled Lotus Notes Databases as part of our Intranet has any one else found a successful method for integrating these into the Oracle Portal?

Hi Emma,
I guess you have posted two topics for the same issue. I have replied to the other topic.

Accessing Lotus Notes data from SAP

We need to fetch some user data such as their email address from a Lotus Notes database using the user's phone extension as a key. This could be from a BOR method used in a workflow or from an FM.
Is this possible, feasible, advisable? If so, what does it take?
Any help or ideas from experts on this forum will be greatly appreciated.

Link to Specific Lotus Notes Database View

Does anyone know how to create a link to a specific view in a Lotus Notes database using Dreamweaver CS4?
Thanks.

Hi nehde,
To connect lotus notes Database as Data server, you need to confogure the connection
Steps:
1. MII Menu -- go to Data servers and click new button for adding new connection, there it will ask for type of connection
2. Fill the all required fields which has mentioned in that screen.
         Name: Database Name
         connector : connection type automatic appeares
         connection type: Lotus
         Dateprefix : '
         DateSuffix: '
         DaysRetention: 7
         internalDateFormat: yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss (your wish)
         JDBCDriver: Ask Lotus Adminstrater( he will provide)
         MaxretryCount: 5
         Password: Ask Lotus Administrator( he will provide)
         PoolMax: 100
         Poolsize: 1
         Retryinterval: 60000(upto requirement)
         SeverPackage: com.sap.xmii.Illuminator.connectors.<Type of Connection>
         serverURL: Ask Lotus Adminstrater( he will provide)
         Timeout, UseCount: (upto you)
         UserName: Ask Lotus Adminstrater( he will provide)
         Validationquery: select sysdate from dual
         Waittime: (Upto you)
Then save it and click the status. If its fine, it shows the status running or error.
If shows error, check the JDBCDriver, ServerURL, Username and password.
After all this, you can see this in Connection Status and in MII Workbench.
Thanks,
Kind Regards,

Access lotus notes and retrive emails

After lots of searching, I haven't been able to find an answer to this question. I'm try to retrive emails from lotus note and filter the mails by date. any help or suggestions will be great. thank you

You should be able to access Lotus Notes using IMAP, have you got that working?
What exactly do you mean "filter by date"? You only want to retrieve messages
before/after a certain date? Use Folder.search.

Indexing Lotus Notes databases: missing LCPPN30.DLL

Hi,
I'm trying to get MOSS 2007 to index some Lotus Notes databases. I've read through some blogs on how to do this (here, here and here) and also read the relevant chapter on page 227 from Patrick Tisseghem and Lars Fastrup's brandnew book "Inside the Index and Search Engines: Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007" (which I think is a must-have for anyone involved in SharePoint Search).
However, I cannot get past the stage where you have to run NotesSetup.exe (which is located in the SharePoint install directory). This executable depends on "LCPPN30.DLL", a DLL from IBM that according to documentation I mentioned above should be distributed with IBM's Lotus C++ API download. However, I've downloaded all Lotus C++ API versions from the IBM site (there were three at the time of writing), but they don't contain this DLL. The DLLs I found were "LCPPN30i.DLL", "LCPPN70.DLL" and "LCPPN80.DLL".
Looking at the filenames it looks like those DLLs I downloaded are all newer versions of the DLL I need. The version to which NotesSetup.exe is built doesn't seem to be available anymore. Is there any solution to this? I've already tried renaming the DLLs, but (as expected) this crashed NotesSetup.exe.

Yep, really hard to find! :( The version that contains the file is
Lotus C++ API Toolkit Release 3.0 for Windows English US
Finally found it on

See the SAP Crystal Reports 2013 Product Availability Matrix (PAM), page 9 and download the doc linked to there. According to that doc, Lotus Notes is now only supported via ODBC only.
Also, the search string 'lotus crystal 2013' (search box in top right corner) brings up the following KBA:

Re : Lotus Notes databases are in German ( for SAP Workflow Integration )

I am trying to install the Lotus notes databases to connect to SAP, but the
databases that I have are in German (even if install SapGui in English).
Does anybody know where can I find the databases in English version or is there any setting which shows me english version.
The databases are:
R3WFAdm.nsf
R3WFLog.nsf
wf4notes.nsf
Wicont.nsf
Thanks and Regards,
Vijay

Hello Vijay,
long time ago, I downloaded the "SAP Connector 1.6" from Lotus Software distribution center (formerly IBM/Lotus Passport Advantage). I haven't checked if it is still available there.
It contains: "r3admin.nsf", "r3work.ntf" and "Wfhelp.nsf" in english language.
Pls. contact me on how to proceed best. To my knowledge, this product is discontinued.

Adobe/MS Access/Lotus Notes Integration

Not sure if I'm in the right place, please feel free to let me know if not. Have searched in Access and Lotus Notes forums but no answers yet. I am using MS Access to automatically send email from Lotus Notes and attach a PDF file that is located on the server. Next step is I would like to be able to create a PDF portfolio out of that sent email and save/name it according to key data in the record. Am also using batch file to create the network folder but am hoping to be able to merge all these processes into one so that when the email is sent, the folder will be created and the PDF portfolio created from the sent email. So far, have not been able to find any answers, am hoping at a minimum someone might be able to point me in the right direction.
Am using this method to batch create folders based on new records in the Access database:

Unable to retreive data from Lotus Notes Database

Hi there,
I have problems to connect to a view in Lotus notes via Lotus Notes SQL Driver. The following message appear when trying to retreive data via WebI
Database error: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_DBC failed. Contact your Business Objects administrator or database supplier for more information. (Error: WIS 10901)
I also tried via Desktop Intelligence and I got this error:
Exception: DBD, [Lotus][ODBC Lotus Notes]Column not found - ActualApproverState: S0022
Environment:

- Lotus Notes SQL Driver 8.50.2009.317
- BOE Professional XI R2 SP2
I test connection in the Universe and it's working fine.
thanks,

Hi,
If you are trying to access the tables from a different user other than the user who created the table, then you have to enable the "Require fully qualified table names " check box. This check box will be available when you right click the "Datasource name".
Here is an example:
Lets assume Table1 is created by user1. If u try to access the Table1 using user2, you cannot access directly. Instead you need to access like "user1.table1".
Hope this resolves ur issue.

Arul

Accessing Lotus Notes from Crystal Reports in AIX

Hi BO world
We've installed the BO Enterprise Server on an AIX 5.3 platform and we want to connect this BO server to a Lotus Domino Server (version 8 on a Windows Server Platform ) to show the data on Crystal Reports. The problem is that we can't find any information about how to make this connection to use the Crystal Report INSIDE the InfoView (of course we can export the RPT file and use it with the Crystal Report Viewer but the idea is run the report inside the InfoView).
In our PC's we have installed the Lotus Notes Client and the corresponding ODBC client (Lotus Notes SQL) and the crystal reports work correctly (accessing to the LNotes Server) BUT, when we start looking for any ODBC for AIX to connect to the Lotus Notes and we can't find any tool to do this.
Could you give any idea o "something" to solve this problem? Let's say
   - Which is the version of ODBC/JDBC driver we have to install in the AIX server to access the L.Notes on the Windows Platform?
   - Should we install the Crystal Report Server in another server (let's say a Windows Server with the corresponding ODBC)
   - Others?
Any help will be great !
Kindly Regards, gdmon.

Hello,
Moved this to the BOE forum.
If AIX and Lotus do not have an ODBC driver then I suspect your only option would be to have a Windows BOE install to process those reports so you can use the Windows ODBC driver.
This is a requirement for Crystal reports to connect. If Lotus doesn't support AIX connectivity then we can't either.
Possibly the BOE forum has some configuration options for you...
Thank you
Don

Lotus Notes Database to Oracle

I have a simple application (workspace?) in Lotus Notes. I need to move that data into an Oracle database. Can someone help please?
I will need to keep moving this data on a weekly basis since new data gets added into this workspace.
Any sample code, or, simple tools/utilities that I could leverage?

Hi
Try to use an ODBC driver to load the data from LN to Ora, or export the data from LN to csv and load it with SQLLoader to Ora.
