SRVE0190E on WebSphere V8.0.0.9
- 16 Oct, 2014
Last monday a customer reports the error SRVE0190E and 404 errors appearing sometimes for some users. After reading lots of trace the error was caused by the following: The customer has one IBM HTTP Server in front of two cells. One cell is WAS Cluster and another is Portal Cluster. The websphere pluging-cfg.xml is merged and then deployed on the HTTP Server. Reading the trace i discovered that the customer has two applications with the same context root installed. Solution: Change the context root of one application.

- 24 Sep, 2014
Last month i migrate a from Portal V7.0.2 to V8.0.1.
Today i receive a task to integrate some applications using WAB (Web Application Bridge).
When i launch the Administration interface the Virtual Application Manager portlet was not there.
I search for a solution but at the end i opened a PMR.
This kind of problem was reported and to fix just run the following tasks:
ConfigEngine.sh action-create-library-wp.vwat.engine
ConfigEngine.sh action-create-resource-environment-provider-wp.vwat.engine

X Window and MAC
- 24 Sep, 2014
I am using my MAC book as principal machine (i was a Windows user). Every day i need a ssh connection with servers to do admin tasks. On windows i use Mobaxterm the best tool i used to do things using ssh. My favorite feature is X Window to use graphical interfaces via x11 forward. There is no Mobaxterm for Mac, so i installed XQuartz http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/(http://xquartz.macosforge.org/landing/). To use the X Window start your connection (after setup XQuartz) using ssh -X user@server

- 19 Sep, 2014
In some cases, after an Apple device is upgraded to iOS 8, some or all of the Calendar entries in the Notes Traveler account no longer appear on the device. It is important to note that although the Calendar entries do not appear on the device, the entries are NOT permanently lost. The missing entries, in fact, still exist in the user's Domino mail file, and they can be resynced to the device via this workaround(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21684863&myns=swglotus&mynp=OCSSYRPW&mync=E)

- 18 Sep, 2014
A few months ago I heard that it was possible to download files from Passport advantage using wget on a linux terminal.
Never needed to test this until yesterday when I needed to upload 3 GB of files to a server (home office to datacenter) that had no possibility of using a browser to download from Passport Advantage.
What I did was the following:
1 - Log on passport advantage (using my laptop) and looked for the desired software
2 - I changed the download option for https
3 - When I started downloading the file I copied the URL
4 - The URL is complex like this one: (i changed some characteres)

Best Practices to manage and maintain Domino Attachment and Object Service (DAOS)
- 03 Sep, 2014
Below are some basic points that one should remember as best practices to manage and maintain DAOS feature in IBM Notes Domino environment.
1. Domino server must be 8.5.x and onwards. All database ODS must be 48 and onwards.

Denied access Notes users are still able to access mails through IBM Notes Traveler
- 27 Aug, 2014
When people leaves the company i always put the user on a deny access group, remove the account and delete the mail database.
