Lotus Notes 8.0.2...Got bug??

04 December 2008

Currently I involved in project to deploy a new Domino 8.0.2 server with new Lotus Notes 8.0.2 client.  Yes as per I expected, IBM did fixed a lot of bugs which were exist in 8.0.1.


Maybe I can list down the new improvement of 8.0.2 compared to 8.0.1

1. Standard client start much faster than 8.0.1
2. IBM add indicator bar to let user know that the client in process to up compared to 8.0.1 which is we did not know either is running or hang.
3. Login form appear before the client.
4. Accessing time for each database much faster.

But accidentally I found out a  few new bugs in 8.0.2 client which are until now I still could not find any answer.

1. Somehow, after perfect configuration of Lotus Notes client, one line in Notes.ini change by itself. It change from Data path to Program file path. It cause client cannot start and error saying cannot find any bookmark or names.nsf
2. For Lotus Notes Standard, somehow after user use the client for 1 or 2 days, the client cannot up and cannot uninstall due to Eclipse installation is corrupt. This happen to some of the users that we installed previously.
3. Everytime user close the client, need to wait for 10 seconds so that the services can be successfully stop. If user start the client before the related services completely shutdown, client will not up.

I hope IBM will fix this issue. For those have any answer, share your comment about these bugs that I did found out.

Do you like to use Linux especially Ubuntu and are you a Muslim?

Ubuntu Muslim Edition

Google Chrome - Amazing browser

I did download and used this browser since last week and one word can i say, amazing. It is the fastest browser I ever seen before and it did not make my pc hang if I open multiple tabs.

I wonder how Google can made such a good browser. I did my own research and found out, each tab that you open, Chrome will start a new service which is different from the rest of the browser. The service will stop when we close any tab. So CPU usage will reduce immediately. Compare to other browser which is sometime still hold the CPU resources until 100% even I did close most of the tabs.

Quran for Windows, Linux and Macintosh

For Malaysian, there is no translation for Malay but you can use Indonesian translation which is would be almost similar with Malaysian translation.

Domino 8.0.2 Successfully Upgraded

For those who did not know, IBM just released the latest version of Domino 8 series which is 8.0.2. And I just upgraded my office Domino server to 8.0.2.

My comment, IBM did fixed few bug in DWA and seem like accessing DWA faster than 8.0.1 version.

IBM did come out with a new page for DWA which is can support Safari browser. They call it DWA Ultralite. It is using AJAX programming. Impressive. Tested with Opera browser.

And also I did test with Firefox 3.0.2 and seem no more script error appear when I am using DWA.
