Known Issues

- The default date shown in the Create Appointment window is the current date, not the date selected by the user in the Calendar. (Issue #10198-1)
- High and low priority flags are not displayed for messages in Sent and Drafts folders. Messages can be sent with high and low priority indicators, but priority indicators only appear for messages in the Inbox folder. This is similar to the behavior of the Notes client. (Issue #11783-1)
- Uploaded files that include Asian characters in the filename are renamed to "File.doc" when uploaded from a Remote Server that does not run the matching Asian language operating system. The filename of uploaded attachments that include Asian characters in the filename will be renamed to "File.doc", when the Lotus Notes Portlet Suite is running an operating system language that does not match the language of the Asian characters included in the filename. This issue is a limitation of Java 1.3x; the Asian characters included in the filename are encoded resulting in a FileNotFoundException, and the upload function in the Lotus Notes Portlets renames the file to "File.doc". In this scenario only one file can be attached to the document since the attachment filenames need to be unique. The content of the "File.doc" file can be viewed successfully. (Issue #17758-1)
- The Lotus Notes Portlets do not allow specification of username and password authentication for Lotus Domino servers configured to use proxy server. The Lotus Notes Portlets provide functionality to specify a proxy server name and port for the Lotus Domino servers on the "Server List" page of the Administrative Preferences. The current Server List configuration does not allow specification of username and password for the proxy server. The Lotus Notes Portlets have not been certified against an environment where communication to the Lotus Domino server is through a proxy server. (Issue #18383-1)
- An appointment in the Lotus Notes Calendar portlet is displayed separately under "All Day Events" tab when the "Show Time As" field is changed from "Busy" to "Tentative". (Issue #38973)
- The Lotus Notes Portlets do not support contact search for groups. The current implementation supports contact search by First or Last Name only. (Issue #39190)
- The Lotus Notes Portlets do not support attachment functionality in an environment where different versions of Lotus Domino Server are used. (Issue #39448)
- Appointments that span multiple days will automatically be marked as all day appointments by Notes. (Issue #39585)
- The Lotus Notes Mail portlet does not mark the system folder "Trash" as unavailable when copying messages. Users cannot copy e-mail messages to the system folder "Trash". (Issue #39687)
- The Lotus Notes Contacts portlet gives a non-descriptive error message when a user tries to save an empty contact within the low bandwidth portal UI or when using Netscape. (Issue #39854)
- When executing the ptnotesd.sh to start or stop the Plumtree Notes daemon, a message indicating that the "Plumtree Test Service" is being started or stopped will appear. Only the message is erroneous; the Plumtree Notes service is actually being started or stopped. (Issue #44355)
- Mail attachments that contain Asian characters in the filename can only be opened if the Remote (Portlet) Server runs on an operating system of the same language. When the filename of an email attachment includes Asian characters (Japanese, Chinese, or Korean), the attachment can only be opened if the Remote (Portlet) Server is running on an operating system of the same language. For example, if the mail attachment includes Japanese characters in the filename, the attachment can only be opened if the Remote (Portlet) Server is running on a Japanese operating system. (Issue #17758)
- The Image Server path to the Lotus Notes Portlets JavaScripts uses the wrong case in the directory named "strings" on Unix operating systems. (Issue #48523)
  Workaround: Navigate to the Image Service @IMAGESERVER/imageserver/RemoteGadgets/groupwareui/scripts/ and rename the folder "strings" to "Strings".
- When upgrading to Lotus Notes Portlets 3.4 from version 3.2, the installer wizard page that prompts for the installation folder shows the default installation directory as C:\Program Files\plumtree instead of the correct default directory, which is C:\bea\alui. (Issue #56092)
