Better way to remove people from type-ahead/recent contacts

From Notes Tips

We've had plenty of tips surrounding 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:
Image:Notes 8.5.3: Better way to remove people from type-ahead/recent contacts

But one problem with this method is that if you delete a contact from type-ahead in this way, they could be added back in automatically, if you send or receive more emails from them.

But in Notes 8.5.3, the new method avoids that :) Now, if you see an address that you do not want to appear in the Recent Contacts list, you can hide it by selecting the contact in the Recent Contacts view, and clicking the Hide in Typeahead button.

Hide in Typeahead button

Then, the address won't appear in type-ahead again, unless you click Show in Typeahead

Test Database Connection on WebSphere Admin console is not a "full" test connection

A developer got this error


Error = Invalid Oracle URL specified DSRA0010E: SQL State = 99999, Error Code = 17,067

 when use the code bellow:

private void connectLookup() throws Exception {
        try {
                InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
                DataSource ds = (DataSource) ctx.lookup("jdbc/abcd1234");
                connection = ds.getConnection();

                if (connection == null) {
                        throw new Exception("Connection error....bla...bla..bla.");
                }
        } catch (Exception e) {
                e.printStackTrace();
                throw e;
        }
}

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

The problem was i forgot to set the field Authentication Alias for XA recovery.

"Internal Server Error" you connect to IBM WeBsphere Portal

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

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.

You need to start using REST

With the launch of Domino Upgrade Pack 1 Domino Designers need to know how to use REST and JSON.

I found a good tutorial about REST. It is a starting point.
