FP1 for Notes 10.0.1 and fixing a start-up crash

A few days ago IBM announced FP1 for IBM Notes 10.0.1 to be ready for download at Fix Central

As it often happens, and because I was having some issues with my 10.0.1 client on Mac, I decided to download and install FP1 right away. Which ended with this nice message when starting the Notes client:

I tried the usual troubleshooting but it seemed to be a stubborn problem. In the end, this is the sequence that worked for me:

  • Reboot your Mac (yes I know.. do it anyway..)
  • Use the «uninstall» provided with the 10.0.1 client package and uninstall the IBM Notes client
  • Run the installer of the IBM Notes 10.0.1 client
  • Run the installer of FP1
  • Clean-up/Reset Eclipse

These steps have been confirmed by a few others to have solved their client start-up problem as well. Not all had to reboot their Mac though 😉

  1. Last week, on a customer MacBook using Notes 9.0.1, i see an issue almost the same.
    What i did:

    1 – Delete Notes APP
    2 – Reinstall Notes 9.0.1
    3 – Apply 9.0.1 FP10

    1. Sometimes deleting the app leaves files behind which can cause issues. That‘s why I use the uninstall when possible. But yes, these steps helped me as well other times.

  2. I’m unable to download the Notes_1001FP2_Standard_MAC64 from IBM website. Please help me to share the file. Appreciate your help.
