SPR # PJON6CGQSSFixed in 7.0.1; 6.5.5 release



Product Area: Server Technical Area: International Platform: Windows

SPR# PJON6CGQSS - Router non-delivery messages were not transladed with the language pack installed. This fix provides a workaround for customers who wish for certain English failure reasons returned in NDRs by the Router to be translated. These English strings currently are visible in the Subject field in the Inbox view. This fix copies 11 untranslated error messages from the router to strings. It also provides a notes.ini, RouterLanguageVisibleNDRStatus=1, which when enabled will generate these new error codes for NDRs. This does not in itself give a translated error. Translation of these new errors on the various language packs is required. The customer must then make a configuration change, to backup the original strings resource, and copy (not rename) the desired language pack version of strings_xx on top of strings. Note that this will also cause some server console messages to be in that language.

SPR# PJON6CGQSS - Router non-delivery messages were not translated with the
language pack installed. This fix provides a workaround for customers who wish
for certain English failure reasons returned in NDRs by the Router to be
translated. These English strings currently are visible in the Subject field in
the Inbox view. This fix copies 11 untranslated error messages from the router
to strings. It also provides a notes.ini, RouterLanguageVisibleNDRStatus=1,
which when enabled will generate these new error codes for NDRs. This does not
in itself give a translated error. Translation of these new errors on the
various language packs is required. The customer must then make a configuration
change, to backup the original strings resource, and copy (not rename) the
desired language pack version of strings_xx on top of strings. Note that this
will also cause some server console messages to be in that language.

Refer to the Upgrade Central site for details on upgrading Notes/Domino.

To enable the fix in Domino 6.5.5, 7.0.1 and later, do the following:
- Shut down the server.
- In the server's program directory, create a backup of the strings resource
file, and then overwrite/replace the file with a copy of the strings resource
file for the language of the server.
On W32, the file is nstrings.dll.
On Unix, the file is strings.res.
This language-specific strings file will have a name in the format
"strings_xx", where xx signifies the language. The original copy of the
language-specific strings must remain on the server as well.
On W32, the French strings resource file is named nstrings_fr.dll.
On Unix, the French strings resource file is named strings_fr.res.

Make a copy of this file and rename to nstrings.dll or strings.res. This file
will replace the existing nstrings.dll or strings.res.

For Unix, make sure the strings.res has proper permissions for the Unix user
that is running the Domino server.

- After updating the strings resource files, add
RouterLanguageVisibleNDRStatus=1 to notes.ini. Restarting either the server
or the Router task will enable this setting once notes.ini has been updated.
