Problem using the Lotus Notes Portlet with Domino DIIOP

hi! the DIIOP service always gives a memory error when the session hits 60. I've read that in R5.0.10, the ORB_LISTEN_QLEN can be set.
but I can't find that line in the notes.ini?!
kindly advise.
thx

eek eek!!
I tried.... turns out, that was the download I was originally working with, and just to be sure, I redeployed the application from that download. I get the same problems. In a nutshell:
1) "My Inbox" portlet has no way to view the most RECENT email
2) When I click a link in the "Calendar" or "My Inbox", I get Error 401 - "You are not authorized to perform the operation"
3) The inbox, calendar, and contacts portlets seem to function upon first page view. Refreshing the page causes "Your session with this application has expired.."
4) The "My ToDo" portlet doesn't work at all. I get a stack dump in the vain of:
"java.lang.NullPointerException at oracle.portal.integration.lotusnotes.application.LotusProvider.showToDo(Unknown Source) at oracle.portal.integration.lotusnotes.application.LotusProvider.showPortlet(Unknown Source) at oracle.portal.integration.lotusnotes.application.LotusProvider.process(Unknown Source) at oracle.portal.integration.lotusnotes.render.ToDoShowRenderer.getURLStream(Unknown Source) at"
Feels like I'm fightin' a losing battle... anyone?

Lotus Notes integration with WebCenter?

I need to integrate Lotus Notes in WebCenter without using Adapters .can anyone help me out??
Thxs in Advance
praveena

hi praveena,
you should be able to use the lotus notes portlet that is provided as part of the OracleAS Provider for Lotus Notes.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/point_downloads.html#lotus
the portlet was originally designed for oracle portal but you should be able to register it in WebCenter as well.

Our Lotus notes web sever is running HTTPS (on a Sun Box) and
the portal (v3.0.9x) is running on Sun Solaris 8. And like the
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
they do not support their own demo portlets - thanks a lot :^

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.

Lotus Notes Portlet .. Error: "LotusNotesProvider is currently unavailable"

Hi all,
I am trying to integrate Lotus Notes portlets available from Oracle with Oracle Portal 10g 10.1.2.0.2. I am able to register and publish the Lotus Notes portlets but i am getting the following error:

I checked the FAQ and there is an error reported for this.I tried following their steps but it was not useful. My application.log file reads as following:

Thanks,

Thanks Harsha... I am able to publish the portlet and access my emails also :))..i am this close to success but just have these two problems..
1) When i click on "New Message" in myInbox portlet- I get the following error message " Application Exception - Could not find design note:. The URL on the web browser shows as following :
"http://<domino server name:port>/mail/<username>.nsf/Memo/?OpenForm&docurl=" .
I asked the Notes Admin and they said that it is something to do with the URL and the parameters it is passing. I have configured the portlets exactly as specified by Oracle Installation guide. Same goes with "New Appointment", "New Contact","New ToDo". I am able to read and access my old emails, calendar ,contacts and todo. The problem is only with the "New xxxxxx" links only.
2) The portlets are displayed exactly as shown by Oracle. That is fine with me but when i click on any of my old emails then i get a different template in a new window. We have a customized company template that we would like to use and is closest to iNote6. How can i use my company's template while looking at mails,calendar,to-do,contact in a new window?
I would appreciate if you can help me on the above issues... :)
Thanks,
Amit

Lotus Notes Portlets in Arabic

I am encountring a problem with Lotus Notes Portlets, I want them to dispaly in arabic.
Note: they are running very good in English
I used the propertyResourceBundle way, and it indeed retreives the strings from the correct file -LotusBundle_ar.properties in my case , but as long as the strings are in English. If I changed the translated strings to arabic strings, it returns me a rubbish in the Portlet headers (e.g. From , Subject , Date Received , ToDo , ..). I tried to set the charSet in the getWriter() method and in PortletRenderRequest.setCharacterEncoding() to UTF-8 and WINDOWS-1256 charsets, in the InboxRenderer class and in the LotusProvider class but nothing worked it always returned me rubbish words, I also set the NLS_LANG of the ias machine which is a windows NT server machine to ARABIC_UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.AR8MSWIN1256, the charSet of the Portal db is not unicode but the NLS_LANG env. variable of the db machine is set to ARABIC_UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.UTF8 , but still nothing worked.
Notes: Arabic is installed on my portal (ver 3.0.9.8) and using the SetLanguage portlet i can switch between english and arabic in a seamless way, also the Database plsql Services Portlet sample is running well and it switches between Eng and Ar also -I have seeded the arabic strings to make it dispaly arabic.
The Notes Arabic cient is installed, and the Notes web access also runs now in arabic (it shows me the Inbox, Calendar, Contacts , ToDo documents all in arabic).
So where is the problem with web portlets, where exactly to set the charSet, I still have a doubt about the portal db charSet which is as I mentioned not unicode, it is American, but how the portal itself is running in arabic and the plsql portlets also while using this American charSet? Pls Oracle people do not let us lost that way. I'll try to use the ListResourceBundle way as maybe the encoding used when saving the .properties file is not correct, and then give u a feed back.
Pls all colleagues if any one can help, and give some guiding points, he will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Christopher for your reply ..
The Good news is that the problem is now solved when using the ListResourseBundle way, I think that my doubt was correct; the encoding used when saving the .properties files is some how Latin (e.g. US-ASCII for example), so that when retreiving the translated strings and writting them on the reponse object using WINDOWS-1256 charSet, some characters get lost, and hence I got the rubbish strings. The problem now is that you cannot provide more than one resourseBundle for one portlet,I need to provide Bilingual interface, so I have two resourseBundle classes for each portlet (e.g. InboxBundle_ar.class , InboxBundle_en.class). I Couldn't provide more than one resourse tage for each portlet in provider.xml, otherwise it gives an ERROR OCCURED! message in the rendered portlet body. So how to resolve this ?
The second problem, wchich is bigger, is that the dynamic strings returned from Lotus server are showing as rubbish strings (e.g the Subject itself of the message, Subject of an appointment,the Last name of a user in a Contacts list,..)althoug these strings are showing well in Arabic from the Lotus web access for the same logged in user. I think that the methods doc.getItemValueString(), doc.getColumnValues().get() are returning strings assuming Latin charSet, I tried to play the following code for the rendered message subject :
byte[] bytes = doc.getItemValueString("Subject").getBytes("US-ASCII");
String subj = new String(bytes,"WINDOWS-1256");
out.println("<td><FONT SIZE=2><a href=\""+readMsgURL+"\" target=\"_new\">"+subj+"</a></FONT></td>");
But unfortunately it didn't work, even when using UTF-8 and UTF-16 in the getBytes statment and when initializing the subj string. note: the out object is assuming the WINDOWS-1256 charset, I forced it to this charset by writting the following code in the renderShow method in the InboxRenderer class :
pr.setCharacterEncoding("WINDOWS-1256");
PrintWriter out = pr.getWriter("text/html","WINDOWS-1256");
where pr is the portletRenderRequest.
So what to do ??? If you can help me Christopher or pass the topic to any one of the people who wrote the Lotus Notes Portlets, to tell me how to overcome these two problems.
Note: It is an urgent requirement to arabize these Lotus Notes Portlets.
Thanks Christopher,
Thanks all

Cannot perform authentication in Lotus notes portlets

Hello again,
I have managed to setup an external application for Lotus Notes portlet for
9.0.2.0.1 AS. By clicking the login button I can access my Lotus Domino mail!
However, when I registered the Lotus Notes Provider (its test page runs fine),
associated its authentication model with my ext. app, and then tried to access the
portlets I keep getting messages about "user authentication failed".
Actually my log file reads:

Is there any issue with the fact that I installed the latest PDK (November 02)? Its test
page also appears without problems.
Thanking you in advance,
Serafeim.

This may be happening because the configured Lotus Notes External Application does not have the Lotus Domino Username, Password and MailFilename entries. Please click on the "Update Login Information" link and supply these values. You should be able to see the Lotus Notes portlets now.

Lotus Notes & LDAP with EP 7

Hello All,
We are planning to integrate Lotus Notes with EP 7.0 I would like to know if Lotus Notes is an LDAP or do we need a seperate LDAP Server.
We are also planning to use Windows based authentication for the Portal, do we need to have an LDAP or can we use the Lotus Notes as an LDAP Server as well, I would appreciate any help or suggestions you can offer.
Please do let me know if Lotus Domino is an LDAP Server as well.
Best Wishes,
John.

Hello John,
for windows integrated authentication you simply configure the SPNego LoginModule which comes with the NetWeaver product UME.
SPNego can technically work together with different user stores such as Microsoft AD, Novell eDirectory, ABAP user store and others. It is also technically feasable to connect Lotus LDAP functionality to the NetWeaver UME on project base.
Summarizing: technically it can work but it require consultancy / project work since this configuration is not covered by the standard.
If you need more information or assistance please contact me.
Regards
Michael

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.

So what can I do!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== 4 days ago

look people, i may have a solution for this. This happened to me a few times before and resolved alone, but last time it happened was when i turned off my router and back on while my comp was running and appeared when i tried opening firefox after that. so wat i did was i shutdown the computer and the router and tried turning both on again, and it resolved.
Therefore, Summary: Shutdown computer then turnoff router then turn both back on
Hope this helps anyone.

empty your trash

Hi, I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. Any solutions??

Hi,
I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. I have a 3G plan but most of the time it switches automatically to EDGE. Thats when i have to either switch Airplane mode - On/Off and then it acts normal. Any permanant solutions to fix this problem?

Return the iPhone personally or via friend/relative/co-worker who is in
the US. The warranty is valid only in the country of original purchase - the USA
in this case. Apple will not accept international shipments for evaluation nor
will Apple ship out of the country after repair/replacement.
How did the iPhone from the US get to you in India? Reverse that process to
get it back to the US so someone can take it into Apple.

Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Colour Engine??

When I am playing back a set of recorded actions, I receive a message that says "Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Colour Engine". This occurs after I copy a part of an image to paste it onto a new file. It occurs during the "Make" part(making a new file) and I was just wondering how to fix it.

It's a known (but esoteric) bug in Photoshop CS5 and earlier, seen with grayscale images. It used to crash utterly, but after I reported it I think they patched Photoshop 12.0.something to avoid the crash. However, the step still fails when you make a new grayscale image in an action.
I saw it because I created an action to paste the clipboard into new document, all in one motion. It virtually always works as long as I have a colored image in the clipboard. But not grayscale.
One workaround, which is not particularly convenient, is to turn on prompting for the Make new image step. I haven't used this workaround for a while, but it used to be that if you confirmed the "File New" operation manually it would continue and work. I don't know if the workaround is still valid.

Could not initialize photoshop because of a problem using the adobe color engine (Win 7)

Was running the lastest version of Photoshop CS5 and added a second quad graphics card and 4 more monitors. Now PS will not start and I get the error message "could not initialize photoshop because of a problem using the adobe color engine."
Computer has 2 NIVDIA Quadro4 NVS420 graphics boards with 8 Samsung SyncMaster 1920x1080 monitors. If I disable 4 of the monitors CS5 starts normally. I do not have to remove the added graphics card. When I extend the desktop again to all 8 monitors I get the error above.
How do I trouble-shoot the problem? Is it Photoshop, NIVDIA or Windows 7?

Well, not exactly a full solution yet (at least for my setup), but I am certain now that this issue is (mostly) caused by nVidia's drivers. You may be able to fix your setup by simply installing the latest drivers for your NVS420 cards (266.45 for Win 7/64 rel. 01/12/2011).
Since you are using two identical cards, this could do the trick.
Caveats - Make sure you:
1. Select Custom Install, the Express Install will most likely not work properly.
2. Unselect the Audio Driver (if available), the nVidia HD(MI) Audio driver could
screw up your speech recognition (if you use it) or other audio software - it did for me.
3. Select Clean Install. If you don't, files like C:\Windows\System32\drivers\nvlddmkm.sys
and several other driver related files will not be overwritten, causing all sorts of neat effects.
4. After the Install is complete, reboot your system whether the Installer prompts you or not.
After testing various configurations, disabling two - six of my eight monitors I am at this point:
I am now using nVidia's lastest and greatest piece of crap (read driver), version 266.58, released just two days ago. After an initial snag with maximized windows extending to the bottom of the main monitor (underneath the taskbar), a re-install & reboot solved that issue.
All three driver versions tested (260.89, 260.99, 266.58) now allow me to start PhotoShop without any problems; providing I first disable the two monitors fed by my onboard graphics (nVidia 780a based), leaving me with six monitors connected to three GTS-450 cards. I can even re-enable the two other monitors once the program is open, and it continues to work fine. However, I must disconnect them again for the next start of PhotoShop.
On an interesting side note:
After disabling six monitors (leaving only two on a GTS-450), I was also able to open and run SoundBooth CS5, which previously would not open, citing the audio driver as the problem. After sucessfully starting SoundBooth I could re-enable all six other monitors (incl. onboards),
and that program now opens and works fine with all 8 monitors connected. [ODD !!!]
Other than Adobe Software, I've had only one other issue with my setup:
When playing online poker at PokerStars, occasionally and quite randomly one of multiple tables would freeze up. I'll try disabling the two onboard monitors for that program as well to see whether the random freezes stop.
Overall, while I think that Adobe produces fine software and nVidia has been in need of an overhaul for quite some time now, I also think that Adobe and nVidia software engineers need to work more closely together to ensure that problems like this don't arise in the first place after a product has been released to the public. IMHO, this is avoidable!
PS:
Here's a link to a great tool for multiple monitors, Display Fusion by Binary Fortress.
I use the free version, it allows you to do cool things like have individual wallpapers for all
your monitors, or stretch a single image across all monitors. With the Pro Version ($25),
you can also add individually customizable taskbars to each monitor, and a lot more.
