Lotus Notes browser

As a company, we're forced to use Lotus Notes. I have an issue on two out of five MAC computers, (meaning three are OK). The problem on two is that their browser setting for links in Lotus Notes to open to will not stay set. I have made sure their browser settings default to the correct one (one wants Safari, the other Firefox). (Of the three that work OK, two of us are using Firefox and one is using Safari, so either should work.) I've also gone into Mail (though we don't use it), and made sure its setting defaults to the browser of their choice.
Then, in Lotus Notes, I set and save the browser preference in locations and I go into their Lotus Notes address book and do the same there. All addresses related to their internet domain mimic what the OK computers have. These settings stay in place until these two computers are restarted, and then the Lotus Notes browser preferences have to be reset. I cannot figure out what is different on these two computers from the other three!
Another strange issue - on one of these computers, the Lotus Notes browser defaults to "2" whereas the other defaults to Internet Explorer (which is really strange, because IE has never been loaded on that computer!
For the record, all of us are on OS 10.6.3 and our Lotus Notes is 7.0.4. I don't know if this problem would go away if we moved up to Lotus Notes 8, but I understand until the rest of the company moves up to 8, we'd lose our instant messaging capability (with all the PC users). Besides, Lotus Notes 7.0.4 is working fine on three computers running OS 10.6.3. The three computers that are OK are two MacPro 2 x 2's and one MacPro Quad Core. The two computers with a problem are a new iMac 21 and a new Mini, both purchased last December.
Is there some other browser master default I'm overlooking (that I may have forgotten since I first set-up Lotus Notes 3 years ago)? I don't remember this problem earlier, though.
Any ideas to fix this pesky problem would be greatly appreciated. (I've not had any success finding an answer to this on the Lotus Notes forums!)

Ibm uses features not supported by the blackberry browser (and I don't think supported by any 3rd party blackberry browser either).

Portal session in Lotus Notes browser

Hi Gurus,
In our portal we have enabled IWA..so when ever user click on the IE..its load with the home page of portal ( portal is set as default home page).
Till the time session is active, user can navigate from one pages to other. However when a user send link of any pages in lotus notes, and recipients click on the link..its is directed to home page..as the session is not available in lotus notes browser..I wanted to know that is there any way, or can we use redirect url ( they how) ..so that when a user click on the url in lotus notes ..they are taken to the desired page not the home page.
Thanks!!

If you are trying to configure your phone on your companys Blackberry Enterprise Server you need to get in contact with your IT Department as they are the ones who manage the server.

Why does Firefox 5 open external (internet, SMTP) e-mail in the browser rather than the Lotus Notes Client?

Using Lotus Notes as the system's primary mail client, '''some''' users experience external mail being opened in the browser rather than the the client. When they revert back to using an older version as the OS default browser, or indeed a different browser altogether, this does not happen.
Again, this does not happen with all installations of 5.0 - just a few.

go to "preferences" in Lotus Notes and enable "disable embodded browser for MIME mail" and it shoudn't open the browser anymore

I use web mail from lotus notes and need Firefox to connect with my MacBook Pro. Since updating to version four I no longer have the ability to see or open attachements. What I am doing wrong?

I updated my MacBook Pro with version 4 yesterday. I access my company's lotus notes with this browser. I can access the web site, but cannot open attachments. The message I received is that I have removed the attachment. I haven't. The text that states the name of the attachment is there. I can click on it but it won't open and there is nothing in the attachment box in Web Mail.

Try the "light mode". Surprise :)

RFC call from Lotus Notes

Hi,
I have create an RFC function,and have a successful test in R/3.
And when I call this RFC function from Lotus Notes.The return message is AA 291 'No correction'.
Anybody know the reason?
Best regards,
leric

Hello Leric,
as an alternative option to using RFC, you may also consider using WebServices. SAP Systems as of Web Application Server 6.20 onwards offer all BAPIs as Web Services.
please take a look at the R/3 web services browser: http://<hostname>:<icmport>/sap/bc/bsp/sap/WebServiceBrowser/search.html
you may also take a look at SAP TechED 2006 session ID SOA150 (Providing and consuming web services in ABAP - http://www.sapteched.com/06/emea/edu_sessions/viewall.htm)
Regards
Michael
PS: if you want to use RFC, you may consider using different connectivity options such as LEI Domino connector from IBM, ZeNotes from Konplan (http://www.konplan.com/public1/_EN/solutions_zenotes.php) or it.smartconnect from itelligence (http://it-smart-connect.itelligence.de/)

Drag and drop from Lotus Notes

Hi all,
I have a little problem with dnd from Lotus Notes. The purpose is dragging a mail from Notes and dropping it on my java application outside of notes.
When I check the incoming flavors, there are 53 of them. The most of them are meaningless or empty, but 1 has my interest. It contains an URL from notes and with this URL I should be able to identify the mail within the correct Notes DB.
Asking the transferData for this flavor gives me this tracing, the @ are replaced be some squares in the original tracing.
It's the first one I'm interested in, but I'm unable to get the URL as an URL or String object.

others, I have followed the Oracle doc on creating a Lotus
Portlet to the letter. But, I'm at a lost since I can not find
a resolve for the error or what it really means. I've searched
MetaLink and Technet and even put in a TAR (which Oracle said

I am trying to install these portlets from the PDK and am having
problems. Looked through all other threads relating to these
portlets and have not found a the answer to my problem.
I have followed instructions to the letter and can access
mailbox in browser by using http://
[lotus_host]/mail/mailbox.nsf.
Having set up the External Application as instructed, when I
attempt to logon to the application, I am presented with a page
headed Lotus with the five input fields from the previous form,
Username, Password, MailFilename, MailServer, Hostname. When I
complete these fields nothing seems to happen.
part of msg #520072
Using the downloaded Java PDK framework and the Lotus Notes zip
file, I have successfully configured and tested the 'sample'web
provider.
I then configured the apache configuration files
jserv.properties and zone.properties for Lotus Notes (as
described in the Lotus Notes Portlets help file.
All went well until I got to Registering the Provider with
Oracle
9iAS Portal :
I got as far as the Input form for the Lotus Notes Inbox (i.e.
clicking on the hyperlink for the external application).
This form asks for Username, Password,Mailfilename, Mailserver
and Hostname.
The form is headed 'LOTUS', the only other item on the Form
being the 'Submit' button.
When I submit the form the entries are cleared (returning an
empty input form as before) but nothing happens.

If you check out the thread from my question (524480), we found
that we had to enable the IIOP task on the domino server as we
were not running it, this cured the problem I think you are
encountering.
This has not solved all our problems as I only see Notes data in
the Inbox Portlet Preview mode, this problem is refered by other
contributors as the collapsing Portlet problem (496625) and I do
not know whether there is a solution to this problem yet.
Hope this helps.

How to integrate Lotus Notes and upload Help Docs into SAP Portal

Hi Experts,
I got 2 questions with regards to content in portal...
1) I got nearly 30 to 40 help documents (PDF & WORD) which users may refer when accssing CRM & BW system in portal.
Currently they are stored in the Local Drive....i am trying to find a way to upload them portal...so the users can always have the docs the require
and
2) Can any one please update me in detail ...on how to integrate Lotus Notes into portal and configure Single Sign on currently my Portal and Lotus Notes user id's are different
Thanks in advance

Hi Geethika,
1. IF documents are on your local computer, Netweaver Portal has a KMC Addon (Knowledge Management and Collaboration). Within KM it is possible to run a Document Management Scenario. You can Create Folders within KM, give Access Rights to Users, Create an Iview to browse KM Folder then add that Iview to a Page or Role so users can access it.
For this, please chech the online documentation via http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/20/b46d42ea0b3654e10000000a155106/content.htm
2. For Lotus Notes Integration, your Lotus Notes Server must be running on Windows Platform.
For the rest configuration please check the following:
Single Sign-On from SAP Enterprise Portal to Lotus Domino

I've the latest version of SAP Ticket Verifier, if you couldn't find it, I can send it to you.

Email Address Duplicates When Auto Submitting Through Lotus Notes

I have set up a "submit" button on my form, but when I test it using Lotus Notes (6.5), the email address appears twice in the "TO" field. Does this occur in other email programs, or is this specific to Lotus Notes? Any fixes or tips on where I might be going wrong in my setup? (During setup, I definitely enter the email address only once.) Regards...

If you have the data submitted to a web server as a FDF or XML file, you can simply import that data into the PDF. Reader creates other problems as Aandi said, at least if you try to submit the whole PDF since it then has to be saved (an extra rights issue for Reader). The e-mail issue has to do with the client e-mail setup. For folks that use an out of the box client like Outlook, I don't think it is necessarily a problem since MicroSoft turns on everything out of the box (that is part of the reason there are almost always security problems). I believe it is MAPI that has to be active for Acrobat or Reader to be able to interact with a mail package. Similar problems exist for mailto in HTML forms. I gave up on that one 10 years ago because every browser did it differently and typically messed things up.
That is the main reason for my comment. You may feel that e-mail is necessary, but it may also be a major problem that may make you look like a fool to others, even if you are not the issue. If you have a limited user base, then you may be able to deal with the issues, but it is a bad practice for a general form to be posted on the internet. It sounds like your use might be within an office and that may be fine.
In terms of your original question, would it be possible to post a sample form with your e-mail (or generic) on it. Then we can look at it, possibly change the e-mail to our own and see what happens with our e-mail clients.

Error: No Logon Data found for Lotus Notes System

Hi,
I have created a lotus notes sytem and have configured the transport also.
But even then i am not able to create appointment under collaboration.
I get the error msg :
"No logon data found for the system 'system name' ".
And when i tried to change the User Mapping , it gives the error msg,
" Error in accessing user mapping data for selected system"
Pls help. Thanks in advance.

Hi all,
Here are a few solutions which may help you solve your problem
1) Access the lotus system with its fully qualified hostname in the system credentials and in the Lotus transport as well.(Ping from portal side and Domino side to each other to check the connectivity as well as the heartbeat check i.e.Launch http://<hostname>:<port>/<servletDirectory>/CalendarServlet in the browser to check the connectivity)
2) In the servlets.properties file,add the following(marked in bold)
servlet.CalendarServlet.initArgs=saveperiod=50,width=7,AttachmentFolder= D:
temp,useEmail=true,debug=true,logResponse=true
This will help you find on the Lotus console what the possible error could be.
3) Run the command 'load http' (coz the http protocol might not have been loaded) on the lotus console and restart the lous server.
If this is the case then make the following entry in the notes.ini file.
Against the list of ServerTasks add HTTP

Newest Firefox will not allow my Lotus Notes to fully load

Previous Firefox allowed me to easily access my work Lotus Notes at home.
Installed newest Firefox: Lotus Notes partially loads (I get all of the tool bars, etc) but none of my email content loads (the portion of LN that shows emails is empty).
Error window says:
A Domino Web Access script error has occurred that might result in missing data within the current page. If your current operation did not complete, click OK, and then refresh your browser display.
Show details
But when I do OK/refresh nothing new happens.
Help!

I personally verified ant it is really working. It is sufficient to install the '''Remote XUL manager''' in a very simple way:
1) Install the addon: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/remote-xul-manager/]
2) Open the config dialog of the addon and insert the name of the domain that you want to allow (for example in my case it was the first part of the web adress of my job, where I am forced to use Lotusnotes)
Then everything works fine as before with Firefox 3.6.
I am not an expert but I understand that Firefox doesn't want to support anymore XUL because of safety concerns, this is the reason why you are supposed to make a whitelist of domains allowed.

Lotus Notes Tabbed tables do not display correctly

When viewing a Lotus Note tabbed table in the Bridge, the initial display is correct (showing the first tab). The other tabs show up as links. When you click on one of the links a browser page opens but gives you a page not found error. Thoughts?

Problem with Lotus Notes portlet

Hi all, i have another problem with the latest Lotus Notes portlet (version 9.0.4.0.0_05062003). I have installed and configured the portlet and the domino server to be used with the Basic Authentication. I followed all the steps in the installation document and everything seems OK. However when i include these portlets in a page, some links (not all) doesn't work, in example: the new contact link. Any of these links opens a new browser window. This window displays that i have successfully configured Lotus Notes External Application, but i can't do anything to perform the action, as to add the new contact. Does anybody have the same problem?, it's a bug? or i have committed an error?
Finally, if i configure the portlet and the domino server to be used with session based Authentication i have the same problem that Remy Vanderplaetsen has posted.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

I guess this problem is again with the same portal issue. You need to apply the patch as mentioned in the FAQ.html document for LotusNotes. Please refer this document on how to get and apply the portal patches so that it could work.

Hello Priya,
As I mentioned before use the following URL:
http://<fully qualified domain name of Notes server>?Login&Username=<username>&Password=<password>
This worked for me some time ago.

What version of Notes do you have? I get a message saying "Domino Web Access has not been certified to work with this browser" and I can choose one of:
Try Domino Web Access anyway
Use Lotus iNotes ultralite mode
Use WebMail
Logout
I try Domino Web Access anyway
As Mike says, it is pretty much useless with a touch screen. I can preview a message, I can create a new message, but I can't type in the body of the new message.
I can switch to Lite, but the text is so small I can't read it. Clicking New doesn't seem to do anything here.
I start over. Apparently that Lite mode isn't the same as Ultralite. The Ultralite mode seems to work fine and even has a distinct iPhone-esque look to it.
The last option, just WebMail looks like a real old, rude and crude webmail version done by somebody's kid that is good with computers.
So, see if you have access to the Ultralite mode. That one is definitely the best. Our Lotus Notes servers also have IMAP servers as well. I tend to use those instead of an actual Lotus client.
