LO85986: INCORRECT SERVER INFORMATION IS ADDED TO CONNECTION DOCUMENT IN NOTES 9 WHEN PERFORMING A CUSTOM NOTES INSTALL

APAR status

• Closed as unreproducible.

Error description

• Customer is attempting to perform a custom Notes install using
  a ConfigFile and notes.ini file
  
  In the configuration file, they specify information for the
  user's mail server:
  Domino.Name=servername/Acme
  Domino.Address=servername.acme.com
  Domino.Port=TCPIP
  
  When the install is completed the user launches Notes for the
  first time. They are prompted for their password but the setup
  wizard is unable to find the user's mail server that was
  specified in the configuration file.
  
  If we then take a look at the connection document that was
  created during setup, we see that the "Destination server
  address" is written in canonical format (i.e.
  CN=SERVERNAME/O=ACME) and not "servername.acme.com"
  
  In the notes.ini, MailServer=CN=SERVERNAME/O=ACME was added
  during the install.
  
  If MailServer=servername.acme.com is set in the notes.ini
  before in the install then it works correctly.
  
  This issue only occurs in Notes 9. Using the same ConfigFile
  and Notes.ini when installing on Notes 8.5.3 works with no
  issues.
  

Local fix

• Add MailServer=servername.acme.com to notes.ini before install
