Hello everyone,
I want to make you aware of a Notes/Domino 8.5.3 template regression that we've found and how to get past it.
Due to a fix for an SPR in the 8.53 codestream, we found a regression that would affect customer using policies with pre-8.01 clients. The effect of the regression is to have policy settings be in effect for pre-8.01 clients that should not be. 8.01 clients and later are not affected.
The backout steps have been verified in-house and also used at the customer site that raised the issue initially. The steps are simple and straightforward, if you have any questions please post a comment. We're working on getting a technote published.
Regards,
Mark
Here are the instructions:
- Open pubnames.ntf in the Domino Designer
- Open the PolicyManagement script library
- Click on the ComputeHAItemList subroutine
- Find the following lines of code:
' Set itemToDelete = hPolicy.GetFirstItem(pRefItemName)
' If Not itemToDelete Is Nothing Then
' itemToDelete.SaveToDisk = False
' End If
- Uncomment these lines of code (remove the ' character at the beginning of each line)
- Save the subroutine
- Exit the Domino Designer
- Replace the design of your names.nsf with this version of pubnames.ntf
- Edit and resave any Policy Settings documents that have the issue
