When trying to update a existing installation using IBM Installation Manager, the following message appears:
Error: The WebSphere® Application Server is currently in use. Please stop the server

I reboot the server and try again but no success.  Installation Manager show the message . I check the process using ps -ef | grep java and no java process are running.

The solution:

Delete the pid file on logsservername

There are changes and enhancements to return receipt behavior on both outgoing and incoming mail messages.
For Notes client users, the administrator can configure the behavior through policies:

For Inotes clients the Return Receipt behavior is set via notes.ini settings:

 iNotes_WA_SendReturnReceipt=2  display prompt giving user the choice whether to acknowledge the return receipt
 iNotes_WA_SendReturnReceipt=1  always send return receipt – default behavior
 iNotes_WA_SendReturnReceipt=0  do not send return receipt

Today i started my Domino server and the HTTP task doesn´t loaded. The console showed a message indicating the port 80 is in use.

I shutdown the server and search for a process listening on port 80 but how?

Use netstat -ano on the command pronpt.

You will see thad the PID 7152 is using the TCP port 80.  

Go to taskmanager and add a column to view the pid . I discover that skype was using the port 80. So i start skype after Domino starts.

In a default IBM® WebSphere® Portal V 8.0.0.1 full or upgrade installation, the social rendering features are not installed. Portal administrators can enable social rendering.

Note: This version of social rendering does not work with remote web content rendering by using WSRP. For more detailed information about performing remote rendering of web content see Performing remote rendering with WSRP and the web content viewer in the IBM Web Content Manager documentation.

  • Enabling social rendering
    If you ran the ConfigEngine enable-new-8001-features configuration task already, you do not need to perform this procedure. The social rendering feature and application objects are installed with IBM WebSphere Portal Version 8.0.0.1, but the feature is not enabled. To enable social rendering, you run the action-enable-social-rendering configuration task. By alternative, you can also enable all IBM WebSphere Portal Version 8.0.0.1 features by using a single, common configuration task.

Setting up social rendering

WebSphere use a lot of ports. To avoid conflicts or just to remeber check this article

Last week i found this new feature. You need Portal/WCM  8.0.0.1

Inline editing enables users with edit access to a content item to edit that item from within the web page itself instead of using the authoring portlet. This feature is available when you display content with a web content viewer portlet.

As an administrator you want to enable LZ1 compression on databases by default.

 In previous versions of Domino you used the parameter COMPRESS_LZ1_CREATE=1. Since upgrading your servers this parameter no longer works

This  parameter was implemented for initial testing and not designed or ever intended for general release. Development deliberately removed the parameter in 8.5.2 .

 There is an enhancement request SPR DPBE8TVN2F requesting that this functionality be implemented again in a future release
