Two Domino 7 Beta 4 issues I encountered
Tags :Domino 7
The first issue was during the server upgrade
from Beta 3, the Windows service vanished. Just poof, gone. Of
course I went into a command prompt window and did ntsvinst -c to
get it back. After some reading on the beta forum, it was noted that...
... it was expected
to be fixed in Beta4 but unfortunately it didn't get into this build. It
has been categorised as a 7.0 ship stopper so it should be fixed prior
to GA.
The second issue was after upgrading the
client form beta 3 to beta 4. I was getting an error on the Welcome
Page. The client would still open, you just had to get past the error.
It then gave a gray area on the Welcome Page but rendered the rest
of the information correctly.

I heard back directly from some of the
wonderful folks at Lotus stating that they thought this had been fixed.
So they gave a fix that involved either replacing bookmark.nsf with
the new one they put in the forum, or following a set of instructions they
provided. Here it is for anyone that needs it. Thanks to Debbie
for getting it to me so quick.
Open bookmark.nsf in
designer
Go to the Views
Click on the view called (Downloads) and
click Design - Preview In Notes
You will most likely see two $branding
documents there.
If you do, go to the "multiple $branding
documents" section below.
If instead you see two documents with the
exact title of $branding4AA10721D4DE2AFF85256D4F003B84B4
go to "multiple $branding+UNID documents" section below.
