No luck! The server does not use network drives, and the only regular task runs every 60 mins. All program docs are correct and do not specify any drive parameters. The error occurs every 30 secs or so. Anybody else help? or any more suggestions? Getting desperate now.............. Return to top Server Error 'Drive is not ready' (David Wingrave 24.Aug.05) . .

12:06Hello, Currently I am trying to add on another Lotus Notes driver to 2 existing Lotus Notes working production drivers. I am using IDM3.5 https://forums.netiq.com/archive/index.php/t-8688.html and I have created an additional remote loader, which is on top of the existing 2 remote loaders being used by the existing Lotus Notes working production drivers. The new driver I added is exactly the same as one of the current Lotus Notes driver (export current driver config, and import the config as the new driver), except for the various settings needed lotus notes such as the port number of the new remote loader, the input and output nsf files. The steps I took was to create the Remote Loader, start the Remote Loader, create the driver (by importing the config file), start the driver, execute the ndsrep command to create an instance. I will get the Publisher Not Ready error whenever I start the 3rd Remote lotus notes server Loader after the first 2 production Remote Loaders are running. However, when I stopped the first 2 production Remote Loaders, and start only the 3rd new Remote Loader, the driver will be able to start and run properly without experiencing the Publisher Not Ready error, and able to sync data properly. I have attached my trace file below. Any idea why I will experience the error only when all 3 remote loaders are running? Is there any maximum number of sessions in Lotus Notes to access the dsrepcfg.nsf file or the admin.id file being used by all 3 of them? Or is there something I missed out? Thanks in advance. Do let me know if more information is needed to be furnished. =) Regards, Jason DirXML: [12/19/08 17:58:36.40]: TRACE: ExternalSplit: NotesDriverShim publisher Channel: Initializing Notes Session DirXML: [12/19/08 17:58:36.43]: TRACE: ExternalSplit: NotesDriverShim publisher Channel: Accessing lotus.domino.Registration DirXML: [12/19/08 17:58:36.43]: TRACE: ExternalSplit: prepSwitchToID: id file: c:\IDs\geab_admin.id DirXML: [12/19/08 17:58:36.43]: TRACE: ExternalSplit: prepSwitchToID: id file path: c:\IDs DirXML: [12/19/08 17:58:36.43]: TRACE: ExternalSplit: Error prepping switchToID method: error ID = 4300.
