Hello,

I followed the descriptions to set up Notes 8 to be used as IM
application. I did edit the plugin_customization.ini and copy the three
plugins from sametime 7.5.1 (com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.brokerbridge,
com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.brokerbridge.constants,
com.ibm.micro)

But, there is one difference in my setup compared to the instructions:
the instructions states that the plugins should be copied to
NOTES_HOME\framework\rcp\plugins
where in my installation the right place seems to be
NOTES_HOME\framework\rcp\eclipse\plugins or
NOTES_HOME\framework\shared\eclipse\plugins (where the Sametime features
reside)

do I have a wrong notes installation?

Anyway, where ever I put the plugins, they just don't get loaded.

Any ideas how I could solve this?
Thanks in advance,

Michael

Hi Michael,

The path is wrong in the setup instructions. It should be
NOTES_HOME\Data\workspace\applications\eclipse\plugins.

I've updated the RTC setup guide.

Cheers,

Hi Tobias,

thanks for looking into this. Unfortunately, the plug-ins still don't
get loaded, no matter where I put them, and, even worse, I don't know
how to make Notes more verbose about what it doesn't like.

Maybe you have an idea?

Regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,

Could you check under File > Application > Application Management
whether the the NOTES_HOME\Data\workspace\applications\eclipse
directory is listed as product extension? If not, does adding the
attached file to this directory help after restart?

Hi Tobias,

yes I do have this install location listed and the same
.eclipseextension file. I even tried the following:
Copied the
com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.brokerbridge.feature_7.5.1.20070416
feature from my samtime installation into
NOTES_HOME\Data\workspace\applications\eclipse\features, copied the
plugin mentioned therein
(com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.jsthelper_7.5.1.20070416.jar) to the
plugins and edited manually
NOTES_HOME\data\workspace\.config\org.eclipse.update\platform.xml to
include the feature. After restarting Notes I see in Application
Management dialog that the Sametime Broker Bridge feature has an error
and the reason that is being shown is:


No plug-in: "com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.brokerbridge" included at
runtime.

No plug-in: "com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.brokerbridge.constants"
included at runtime.

No plug-in: "com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.jsthelper" included at runtime.


Is there a way to obtain a .log file and passing -clean and -debug
options like in eclipse?

Thanks again,
Michael
