Subject: Mail Template Update

Feedback Type: Problem

Product Area: Domino Server

Technical Area: Error Message

Platform: Linux

Release: 8.0.1

Reproducible: Always

Hi Folks,

we have a Domino 8.0.1 and a Domino 6.5.2 Server running. They both work fine, and we are slowly migrating the users from the 6 to the 8 (that also works fine). But, when we upgrade the mailfile templates from 6 to 8 we get the problem that some (not all !!!) users experience error Messages with the new Template of the Mailfile. All upgraded users only live on the Domino 8.0.1 machine.

The immediate error message is:
Type Mismatch on external name: UIMEMODOCUMENT

follow by a second one that reads:
Variant does not contain an object

Whenever anything is clicked in the Database these error messages occur. A downgrade to the Template o version 6 fixes the problem, but is not desired. The webaccess does not work right for mailfiles that use the template of the domino 6 when hosted by a domino 8 server.

So, does anybody have any idea why this error message occurs, or even better - does anybody have a solution to the problem ? Or maybe a hint why this only happens to some users and not all of them ?

Any help is appreciated.
