Lotus Notes Overflow Error
Awards Events CONTACT Blog 4 Common IBM Notes Errors and Solutions from 2014 Tweet January 9, 2015 There are a few errors that caused IBM Notes developers and users pain last year. In this post we’ll take a look back at some of the most common IBM Notes errors and their solutions. One of the most common issues is caused by an Adobe update. Another bug is a classic permissions issue caused by a migration. 1. POODLE Attack SSLv3 contains a vulnerability that has been referred to as the Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption (POODLE) attack, which is a man-in-the-middle attack affecting Web browsers. Browsers connecting via SSLv3 to Domino servers running HTTP are exposed to the POODLE attack. As browsers turn off SSLv3 and disable downgrading from TLS, they will be unable to connect to Domino over HTTP, as Domino servers currently support only SSLv3. IBM has released Domino server Interim Fixes that implement TLS 1.0 with TLS_FALLBACK_SCSVfor HTTP to protect against the POODLE attack. Implementing TLS 1.0 for Domino will protect against the POODLE attack and will allow browsers to still connect to Domino after they have been changed to address the POODLE attack. IBM has provided Interim Fixes for the following Domino releases: 9.0.1 Fix Pack 2 - http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21657963 9.0 - http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21653364 8.5.3 Fix Pack 6 - http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21663874 8.5.2 Fix Pack 4 - http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21589583 8.5.1 Fix Pack 5 - http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21595265 2. Creating a new calendar entry or opening mail generates an overflow error This particular bug has been popping up across an almost random number of IBM Notes systems beginning in March 2014. It seems an update applied by Adobe Reader XI causes a change to the NOTES.INI. The percentage of users with IBM Notes and Adobe Reader installed is very high, especially in workplaces with BYOD policies. Adobe corr
that is below limit Technote (FAQ) Question When compiling or executing particular LotusScript code an Overflow error occurs relative to a variable whose value is below the limit for the relative Type of either Long, Single or Double. For example, the following code will return a Overflow error on the second line when compiled: Dim number As Double number = 1000 * 33 This example also returns a Overflow error on the second line when compiled: Dim number As Double number = 32767 + 1 The below example compiles but returns an Overflow error when triggering the MessageBox call: Dim number As Single Dim a As Integer Dim b https://www.teamstudio.com/blog/bid/402065/4-Common-IBM-Notes-Errors-and-Solutions-from-2014 As Integer a=1000 b= 33 number =a * b Messagebox number Answer These issues occur because the code is incorrectly treating the result as a variable of the Type Integer in certain cases: For cases where the formula is performing addition the issue only occurs if all fo the values being added are Integers and the total sum is greater than 32,767 or less than -32,768. (Integers have a range of -32,768 to 32,767) For http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21171565 cases where the formula is performing multiplicatin the issue only occurs if the first two values being multiplied are Integer values and the result of the operation is greater than 32,767 or less than -32,768. This issue has been reported to Quality Engineering as SPR# PCOY5ZJBNH; currently there are no plans to address the issue. Workaround: Make the operands non-Integers by one of the following: Add .0 on to the value. With addition this only needs to be applied to at least one value. For example: Dim number As Double number = 32767 + 1.0 For multiplication this must be done for at least the first operand: For example: Dim number As Double number = 33.0 * 1000 Declare at least one of the operand variables as the Type Long: Note: When working with variables and the multiplication case it doesn't matter if it's the first operand that is declared as a Long). Addition example: Dim number As Single Dim a As Long Dim b As Integer a=32767 b= 1 number =a + b Messagebox number Multiplication example: Dim number As Single Dim a As Integer Dim b As Long 'Use Long rather than Integer a=1000 b= 33 number =a * b Messagebox number Document information More support for: IBM Domino Designer Software version: 6.0, 6.5, 7.0, 8.0, 8.5, 9.0 Operati
