Better way to remove people from type-ahead/recent contacts
- 01 Feb, 2012
From Notes Tips
We've had plenty of tips surrounding Recent Contacts(http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/notestipsblog.nsf/dx/recent-contacts), and it's a highly talked-about area. In Notes 8.5.3, we've continued to improve how you can control Recent Contacts/type-ahead.
In the past, we made it easier to remove "incorrect" contacts from type-ahead, by letting you delete a contact from the right-click menu:

But one problem with this method is that if you delete a contact from type-ahead in this way, they could be added bac
Test Database Connection on WebSphere Admin console is not a "full" test connection

InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
DataSource ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup("jdbc/abcd1234");
connection = ds.getConnection();
if (connection == null) {

When you test the connection on the websphere admin console everything is fine

"Internal Server Error" you connect to IBM WeBsphere Portal
- 29 Dec, 2011
Initial connection to the Portal Server via an HTTP server reports: "Internal Server Error". Refreshing the browser results in a successful connection. Enabling the plugin trace you can see the error - TRACE: lib\rio: wait\on\socket: ServerIOTimeout fired. In my case the IBM HTTP is on the same machine as Portal and it's not a cluster. The default value for ServerIOTimeout is -1. Ajusting to ServerIOTimeout=120 solve the problem You can see in the TN 1411685 that this problem was found on System I but my server is on Linux.

If you think Domino on Linux is not stable
- 23 Dec, 2011
One of my servers is runing for 305 days. I Know that 8.0.2 and Centos 5.2 are old but the strategy is if is not broken don't fix it. This server is for Sametime (chat only), SMTP and some mail users using Notes. The webadmin message is from the server, and thanks to my datacenter too. I don't know if you can run a Windows box for a long time without reboots. !Image:If you think Domino on Linux is not stable(http://platao.plansis.com.br/blogkenio.nsf/dx/23122011112936KCAHU4.htm/content/M2?OpenElement)

Lotus Traveler 8.5.2 Server Experiencing High CPURead MoreCan the time in which a changed Internet password is cached ever be modified
- 30 Nov, 2011
When AdminP processes a password change in Lotus Notes/Lotus Domino, the old password is cached by the server for two days. What if this cache period is too long or too short ? Can the cache period ever be modified?
Yes, the cache period can be modified by setting the following parameter in the server's notes.ini file:
HTTPPwdChangeCacheHours.
Use the following format:
HTTPPwdChangeCacheHours=x
(where x is the number of hours of caching time for the old password)
During the cache period, both old and new passwords are valid, assuming the change has replicated to the server being accessed.
In addition, the Security Settings Document --> Password Management --> "Allow users to chang
