A month ago I encountered a strange problem with a LEI Server.

 

Today we didn't find the problem, but found the solution.

 

After removing LEI from the server (and all *.nsf *.ntf) and reinstalling it, LEI seems to work.

Yesterday we fought a very strange problem in LEI 8.0.1.

We created a new replication activity from an MS SQL source to a Notes database. About 80'000 records.
 Every time we stop this activity, either by hand or by timeout,  the server will crash.

The server then reboots and crashes again with the same errormessage:




To start the server, we had to disable the LEI task in the notes.ini file, start the server, delete all the entries in LEILOG.nsf, enabel LEI in the notes.ini and restart the server again.

I found the following link today:
Lotus Support 6.0

Maybe the Notes.ini Setting EIUseOSMemory=1 will help.

We have to try this and look what happens.


Seems that the ini setting saved my day.

 

When I tried to install LEI 8.0.1 on our development server, i ran across some interesting errors.

Failed to get return value from CheckAndConvertIniPath
Failed to get return value from IsServerAvailable

Searching the LEI Forum didn't help much. Google discovered only 3 links.
Finally I discovered the following link in the Lotus Knowledgebase: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21255730

After reading this article I removed the entry for Teamstudio CIAO Server from the notes.ini.
Finally, LEI installed without errors.

After installing LEI, I'm able to easily push productive data into the test / development environment, without writing a line of code......
