Notes Module Error

[Pedro84]

Has anybody seen this error before? I am using NW7.3 sp3 and 3.1 of the Notes module

* collinsukmail01:NOTES: The LoadLibrary() call failed. (load_notes_api|0|0|126)

Please check the Notes_ExecDirectory variable in your nsrnml config file.
Typically your notes.ini is in this directory.

I have got this problem too but i have in my nsrnml_config this parameter:
Notes_ExecDirectory = "C:\Lotus\Domino" and notes.ini and nnotes.dll is in that directory.

What else can it be? do i need to stop all domino services?

thanks.

It sounds to me like you have incompatible versions of Networker/Domino. Is it NML version 2.2 or NML version 3.0?

 

[Robert800]

Did a direct recover to another notes server with the same NML version 3.0.0. Very odd error this as its the same versions of Networker.

Could it be something in notes that its different version, service packs etc?

There are two possible reasons :
First your Notes need a reboot.

Second some paths in your nsrnml_config file are wrong.

Post your config file and the configuration of your notes server otherwise we might guess but not help.

I have tried to reboot the notesserver but that didn't help

here is my config file

Is your other nsrnml the same on the server that is working?

Try this:


LOTUS
{
NSR_BACKUP_LOTUS_DIR=TRUE
NSR_SKIPDBERRORS=TRUE
NSR_PARALLELISM=4
Notes_ExecDirectory="C:\Lotus\Domino"
PATH="C:\Lotus\Domino;C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin"
}

 

[Robert800]

Yes its the same config file on both servers, will try that later thanks for the answer.

 

[Robert800]

Hello again,
yes it worked to do that expect NSR_BACKUP_LOTUS_DIR=TRUE which it didnt like.

So this workes for me now:

LOTUS
{
#NSR_BACKUP_LOTUS_DIR=TRUE
NSR_CLIENT = notes1
NSR_SERVER = backup2
NSR_SKIPDBERRORS=TRUE
NSR_PARALLELISM=4
Notes_ExecDirectory="C:\Lotus\Domino"
PATH="C:\Lotus\Domino;C:\Program Files\Legato\nsr\bin"
}

I've a feeling that 'works' but doesn't back up any data - no notes data anyway.

You may want to look into NSR_BACKUP_PATHS if this is not backing up Notes data.
