Users of the 1.03 release should now have a link on their System Overview page telling there is a new version available.

From the manual:

DAP supports an algorithm developed by Douglas Crockford that removes all comments and
unnecessary white space from JavaScripts or CSS files. This will reduce scripts and style sheets another 10-15% when combined with GZip. You can read more about the algorithm here:
http://www.crockford.com/javascript/jsmin.html

DAP uses a slightly modified algorithm that is a bit more conservative around the hash (#) char. This is to counter Internet Explorer’s parsing of CSS files that did not work otherwise.

To use JSMin set a HTTP-header:  js-min: true Example:

@SetHTTPHeader(“js-min”;”true”);

This will tell DAP to minify the JavaScript or CSS before GZip compression. Do not attempt to minify other content than JavaScript or CSS it will probably break the content.

Be aware that unlike GZip minifying is not lossless. The content will be changed. In some cases JavaScript or CSS files can behave different after minifying. You will have to test that your code works after you attempt to minify. Pay extra attention if you are using conditional comments in JavaScript. This will most probably not work as comments are removed.

Note: JS-Minifying is an option for some content, use only where you know no harm can be done it is not worth the space saved if it means introducing bugs in your code.

Domino Accelerator Pack is a DSAPI filter that GZip's and caches Domino content making your Web applications perform faster and transmit faster over the network.

DAP works as a DSAPI filter that sits between the HTTP stack and the Domino server engine. It will cache and compress content going out from the server - reducing server load and reducing bandwith usage. Standard HTTP/1.1 caching headers are used to set up the caching and compression rules.

Cached content will be delivered directly from memory without Domino having to render the content again. The GZip compression will reduce Domino web pages with 70-75% depending on content type.

DAP keeps a GZip-cache of recently compressed content saving CPU time when the compression engine does not have to work all the time.
DAP uses a "Smart Cache" that will try to cache content Domino see as un-cacheable. This avoids retransmissions of entire pages that has not changed.

I first saw this when trying to add 1.6 of prototype.js. The script wouldn't compile and after googling a bit I found that there's a limit in how much code between { } that Domino can handle... and this API has a lot ;)

So I had to move them to File Resources instead...

When we ported our application to "web 2.0" and removed old R5 Domino coding we used Team Studio configurator to search and replace. My experience was that those elements added as resources in HTTP Header and JS Header where not found and we had to convert manually.

Another reason to add all references manually to HTTP Header with a link or script tag instead of using Resources.

Anyone else with experience on this topic?

The new DAP is also 54% smaller than the last version!

Download link

Full change log- Smaller DLL file (54%) due to better compiler optimizations.
- Better support for hard reload for Internet Explorer.
- Added the host name to the links in Show Cache web admin. Admin links could go wrong when multiple hosts were cached.
- Admin interface shows latest available DAP version and features for download.
- Admin interface "Show Cache" page is now compressed if browser supports it.
- Admin interface can filter "Show Cache" on host and GZip cache.
- Admin interface can show GZip cache content.
- Admin interface "Show Cache" shows a footer with totals.
- Admin interface "Show Cache" gets zebra stripes for increased readability.

The server test shows a significant increase in ability to deliver pages 1761 pages/s versus 636 pages/s without DAP.

Even though DAP delivers nearly three times as many pages/second the CPU load is much lower using DAP.

The web client test shows how much compression does for page load time over different connections. This test is performed on a server without load. Differences would be higher for a server with load as DAP's caching would help keep CPU load down.

Hope it is better than the old one. I might have killed some functions, let me know how it works for you or if something is plain ugly.

Also try out the "Lotus Triple search". It searches dominoExperts + some Domino blogs and Domino R8 forum in one search.

I have added a feed for some of the blogs I read, let me know if you think I should add a blog.

Attached is a picture of the old site. 

I have so far made up my own but I guess I should move towards using one of the official ones.

Anyone know of a framework especially useful for Domino?

I do and with the plugin to Domino I really like it. Some glitches compared to Eclipse but, hey, it's free :)

Can't see a reason to buy the prof. version only to receive a JSON editor

When inspecting the event viewer in windows an entry states:

"Notes Single Logon will not function properly: No mapping between account names and security IDs was done."

I found nothing of value at notes.net but I did find a blog entry with a tip that works.

Just run regedit and modify:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\NetworkProvider\Order

Move "npnotes" in front of "WebClient".

Thanks to Glen over at thesalmonfarm.org for this helpful tip. 

IE has none. But in IE7 you can create a shortcut that does the job.

1. Right-click your desktop, Create shortcut

2. Paste in this string as program: RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 8

3. Name it something nice. I have dragged into my quick launch bar for fast access.

To keep posted to what happens at dominoExperts in real time add the bot as your friend in either MSN or Google Talk or your favourite Jabber client:

bot(at)dominoExperts.com for MSN (the "(at)" should be replaced with @)
dominoExperts.com(at)gmail.com for Google Talk/Jabber

The commands you can type to the BOT are:

help/? - Shows the help page
sh ta  - Shows how dominoExperts server is doing
start - Starts a subscription to dominoExperts
stop  - Stops the subscription
tip   - Gives you advice in choosing e-mail system

Let me know if you have any suggestions for what more you would like the BOT to help you out with!

Please be adviced: This is beta code! The MSN part of the BOT sometimes loses contact with the evil empire.

More details to follow. 

I tried it and it works just fine.

C:\Lotus8\Notes\nlnotes.exe

in my install. Can come in handy sometimes.

I have found no way to do this for just one e-mail. Do I have to hack the Domino Directory every time?

I am sure someone has an answer.

But it has been said that IE6 with service pack 2 should be fine to GZip. This is true for most cases but today I found one (more?) exception.

When a HTML-page is cached AND using GZip the second time the page is loaded (from cache) it has lost its content encoding. So all special characters like åäö (or others) look like crazy.

If I do "View source" they appear fine but the rendering of the web page is wrong.

Removing either caching or GZip solves the problem.

So I guess you either do not GZip the HTML-page and GZip everything else or you load your content using JSon and hope to work around it all.

I have worked a lot with optimization lately and I stumbled on one of the more complete articles I have seen so far by Aaron Hopkins. Judging by the dates in his example it is about two years old but the principles for Ajax calls and HTTP and TCP/IP has not changed that much in the last 10 years.

Happy reading!

If you want to discuss this matter it is really one of my favorite topics.

Feel free to post a question.

I am using the following blacklists at the moment:

cbl.abuseat.org
taiwan.blackholes.us
opm.blitzed.org
dnsbl.njabl.org
dynablock.njabl.org

If you have any better ones feel free to share. My settings are listed in the picture below. 

Also if you have any experience with other filters I would like to know about it.

Is there a way to determine that? Maybe to do a restricted thing like trying to open a pop-up window and see if it is successful? Or trying to manipulate the content of an IFrame?

All suggestions are welcome!

Sun has reached end of life for that version of java. Has anyone got an idea about where to get the install file?

http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=463&uid=swg21087009

It has recently been revised and although it says it works for version 7 I have tried it with 8.0.1 without problems.
I am still amazed how easy it is to move a server! It is also nice to do a clean install to make sure no old files clutter up your file system.

I have some small things to add to the list:

- Move all your files from the html directory
- Servlet directory if you use it
- Java security configurations if you use it.

First thing was to install the 8.5 pre beta client over my old client and I am now actually using it for everyday work even though it is early in the design process. And yesterday I participated in a phone conference discussing new features.

The experience gives you the warm feeling that IBM is back on track again with Domino!

There are a few new features (which I can not speak of) that are truly brilliant!

Anyone else has this?

Dean Edwards did som early work on it but has anything happened after that?

So I was thinking what kind of gadgets are out there?

Ctrl-M	To toggle focus/maximize on the window you are working in.
Shift-Ctrl-P	Standing on the end curly brace takes you to the corresponding start curly brace and vice versa.
Ctrl-O	To open the outline and quickly move around methods.
Shift-Ctrl-O	To Organize imports.
Ctrl-/	Toggle comment for the marked section.
Ctrl-S	Of course to build and save.

Marking a selection and holding down Alt while moving the block around with the up and down arrows.

There is a set of tools called NotesHound (http://www.noteshound.com) which are aimed for usage by Notes/Domino developers.

Compared to similar tools (Team Studio and Ytria) they may not (yet) be quite as powerful, fast and fancy. But they compete well on another matter - namely price.

For USD 495 you get thirteen tools that really helps in your Notes/Domino development.
That price is actually a one-off. You get updates for free - forever.

Check it out.

There will be a completely new servlet engine embedded within domino that will process the XPages and JSF components of the page, that engine will be of a newer flavor than the existing servlet engine. The obvious benefits are of course that you do not have to deploy jars, wars or class files directly to your file system. Everything can be replicated and copied in normal domino-style fashion.

My next concern was of speed. Domino's servlet engine is fast but not that fast, When they take a new, modern servlet engine and embed it inside of Domino and add all the 
new features how would that handle on the road?
Apparently this should not be a problem since they are going to take away some of the layers sitting in between the browser-request and the server core. I could not get any 
specifics about this but certainly sounds promising!

My impression from the discussions is that the plumbing is not completely decided yet and might change but I do really love the direction this is taking.

At one of the sessions they hinted at the possibilities for a session object. I have waited long for this; I even posted it on Bob Balabans wish list for the next domino 
release (I am not saying I am the only one). The session did however not answer that many questions about the session object.

So the next investigations went into how/what/in what context can I use the session object?

There will be four different session objects:
- A server session that can be used to store global information in between requests.
- An application session. This is of course a per database session object.
- A user session. This is the really interesting part.
- A request session. This is a per-request session object.

The session objects will only be available within the XPage scope. There are no plans to support it in LotuScript or Java agents.
This is a bit unfortunate but maybe there can be a workaround or maybe we will all leave the old design elements behind and die!

The future for Domino sure looks bright!

We are 5 people from Strand Interconnect (publ) this year. I am certain we will have a good time!

Maybe I will have time to drop a line here in between sessions.

Who's going? I'd love to have a beer with some Domino dudez over there!

Using Ajax to add document preview functionality to IBM Lotus Domino

Please post any questions or suggestions in this thread.

It is bundled in an e-kit which can be found at the top under "Top story" here:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/lotus

There is even an interview with my old idol Tim Berners-Lee in the e-kit!

I would like to compare creation dates without having to use the Notes classes.

But I guess I will have to build my own.

There is a project over at source forge (http://domino-javadoc.sourceforge.net/) that has put together a java doc for the domino java classes.

To get it to work follow this order:

- Download this
- Extract the two files and place them somewhere (I use C:\data\NotesJavaDoc)
- Open eclipse and open your java project to the "Properties" / "Java Build Path" like the image below.
- Expand the "Notes.jar" file (you will have to add it if you have not done so already)
- Double click "Source" and add the source file.
- Double click "Javadoc" and an add the doc file.

Done!

Eclipse environment once fitted with java doc:

We have quite big database, ca 10 GB (most of them are attachments). The FT index has 2 GB, quite big as well.

Is it normal, that the ftsearch query needs ca 1-2 minutes for each to find the result?

Sometime in 30s, or 9s, but the 5 minutes searching time is quite too big.

Im using an agent and view.FTSearch ( in 38 000 documents ).

Is the time ok? How to improve the search speed?

Thanx

It is really easy and gives some helpful hints of where and what takes time in your code.

In your agent, simply check the Profile check box (security tab):

The run the agent and turn to the agent in the designer, right click and choose:

The resulting report will look like this: 

resizeImage Profile

2007-10-21 10:31:13 CEDT
Elapsed time: 361 msec
Methods profiled: 10

Session	UserName	Get	1	0
EmbeddedObject	ExtractFile		1	0
AgentContext	CurrentDatabase	Get	1	0
AgentContext	DocumentContext	Get	1	0
Session	AgentContext	Get	1	0

Each time i edit the form it asks me from what server the database with the view is. After I tell which server I can edit the form. But if I as much as clicks on the embedded view the notes client hangs with 100% CPU utilization.

The form works fine on the web but I have this bad feeling about the whole thing.

I have tried removing the form and inserting it again - same result.

Anyone got a clue?

2007-10-20 16:08:23 Full Text message: Rename error. From: K:\Lotus\Domino\data\de\forum.ft\ftgi\Fullsupp To: K:\Lotus\Domino\data\de\forum.ft\ftgi\%ullsupp errcode = 1806 errno = 13 (Permission denied)

I have an agent that acts on selected documents in a view (got this
from a colleague who found it in some forum).
For each document it shall print the document and its attachments. The agent works fine if the attachments are of type word (.doc). I would like it to work for pdf, txt, rtf and possible other formats as well. However I can't get a grip on the OLE classes.

I try to use them as they are stated in Domino Designer (I have looked in the windows registry as well) and it only generates the error "Cannot create automation object" whenever I use the CreateObject method. No such error is raised when I am creating an object for the OLE class "Word.Application". "Excel.Application" also works fine.

I have tried several different suggestions that I've found on developerworks and here is the latest try. I also tried the OLE class "AcroExch.Document" which is commonly suggested in the forums. When I try to use "AcroPDF.PDF" Notes crashes/dies.

The attached file contains the agent content. The problem occurs on the first line in "case pdf:", that is when the "CreateObject" is called.

There should be some logic in this and I'm sure there this. Can someone explain it to me. Any suggestion and help is appreciated!

Kind regards / Niklas

If you have set your agent with a to low security setting it will not have access to those property files and you will get a message looking like this:

2007-10-15 13:48:58   AMgr: Agent ('importData' in 'imp\DbImport.nsf') error message: java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find resource for bundle java.util.PropertyResourceBundle, key connect_not_allowed

The error you receive is not the root problem but a consequence of your agent not having access to its JAR files properties.

The solution to the above error message is to set a security setting of 2. Allow restricted operations.

Could be tricky to spot sometimes.  

is there anyone out there who's had hands-on experience with both platforms for unified messaging? How do they really compare, what are the pros and cons, both from a technical (installation, implementation, administration) point of view as well as cost/benefit?

I've read the hand-outs from both Microsoft and IBM, and although I'm partial to Domino - duh - it's hard to see the real differences apart from the obvious.

-Louie

It was kind of hard to figure out. Maybe someone can benefit from this.

It turns out that Internet Explorer considers an iframe without a "src" attribute insecure. The trick is to add a dummy src attribute pointing to a picture or something (/icons/ecblank.gif).

A qualified guess is that this will probably be the case with all objects that can have a src attribute. Firefox seems not to be affected.

For a customer we had a project that had to send SOAP messages over the internet so we had to look into HTTPS or SSL. Having done this back in the Java 1.1.8 (R5) days where you had to mess with the internals of Domino's JAR files I was a little worried.

But some googleing did show that some progress has been made(!). The Jakarta commons HTTP Client project comes to the rescue. http://jakarta.apache.org/httpcomponents/httpclient-3.x/index.html
It has been around for some time but that is usually a good thing. The latest stable version is 3.1.
It does all the things you could ask. Well it did not do proxying with the SOCKS protocol. But that is available in the 4 version - which is not stable yet.

Here is a very simple example just to show how simple it is to get started.
You need to put the files:
commons-codec-1.3.jar, commons-httpclient-3.1.jar, commons-logging-1.1.jar in your "\jvm\lib\ext" directory on your client and server.

Simple Agent example:
-------- cut here --------




import lotus.domino.AgentBase;
import lotus.domino.AgentContext;
import lotus.domino.Session;

import org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpClient;
import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.*;

public class JavaAgent extends AgentBase {
 public void NotesMain() { 
  try { 
   Session session = getSession();
   AgentContext agentContext = session.getAgentContext(); 
   HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
   GetMethod method = new GetMethod("https://www.verisign.com/");

   try {
    int status = client.executeMethod( method );
    System.out.println(status + "\n" + method.getResponseBodyAsString());
   } finally {
    // release any connection resources used by the method
    method.releaseConnection();
   }
                 
  } catch(Exception e) { 
   e.printStackTrace(); 
  } 
 }
}

Imagine you have a CMS and want to give the author a picture of what they are typing, instantly by making a capture of the text in tinyMCE and present it in a div-tag somwhere on the page?

My efforts last night wasn't as good as I'd hoped for :-) so I'm kinda stuck right now.
I can't get the text from the editor. None of the functions provided by tinyMCE is useful, as I see it. I use tinyMCE.getContent() and I get the text but it is not correct. The last rows are not formatted, only plain...

Also I was having issues with prototypejs, MSIE 7 and tinyMCE last night. Everything worked as designed in FF but when running in IE, NOTHING worked Usually its the other way around...

Any experiences on that?

One thing I haven't tested is to do my design in clean database, from scratch. This one is codestore.net example database...

I am really looking forward to this!

Myself and another developer do most of our coding in Lotusscript,Javascript We have no experience in plain ole Java.  We are debating the idea of going to some type of Java training to expand our coding skills.  For this I ask you is there any type of Java training you recommend?  Would it be beneficial to go to a Java Boot Camp to get up to speed on Java?  Would the added benefit of Java programming really expand our Development abilities? Or is there not much added benefit to having the Java training?

Thanks in advance.

In a project we used the Oracles jdbc driver, ojdbc14.zip, attached in an agent. After a few re-saves we had to reboot the machine due to massive memory leaks.

Putting the file in "\Lotus\notes\jvm\lib\ext" seemed like the way to go and it is - If you rename the file to ojdbc14.jar !

Now the agent compiles in less than a second (20 seconds before) and we do not need to reboot windows all the time!

I am not the one running the server so I have limited access. But as always seeing a Domino server in pain I want to give a helping hand.

I have spotted a few things so far. Could you guys help me out with pointing out if it is normal?

- 4 agent managers running.
- A scheduled program that runs: nServer -c "dbCache flush" every 30 minutes(!)
- Compact is run each morning and evening
- 3 scheduled programs that run updall on 3 different database every 30 min
- >1000 agents that are scheduled on the server
- Lots of Notes client users
- Lots of web traffic

Also if you could give some pointers to what quick fixes can be applied - short term - to get the machine into better shape.

A servlet that uses the web-users credentials to accesses information in several databases. Fortunately the problem was quickly resolved but it could have been a major show stopper.

The problem is that the user has web access to the server but do not have access to "Access the server". Apparently the servlet accesses the databases as a "Notes" user.

The solution is to add the users under Server document -> Security -> "Access server" .

Enabled in notes.ini with:
JavaEnableJIT=1

When you read the docs to turn it on they mention that it might cause problems to turn it on.

I have been running it for a time at som unimportant servers that run a lt of java and have had no problems at all.

So I will go ahead and enable it on some more servers.

Anyone had any troubles with that setting?

I think Joachim Dagerot and Fredrik Stöckel had a PMR with IBM about some XSL transforming taking 4 minutes when it should take 4 seconds and that setting solved it. Has it had any side effects?

Here are my questions:

1. Has anyone created any code or made any template modifications to highlight folders or change font of folders when it contains new unread message?
2. Do you think IBM will implement this in a future release? If so how soon?

Thanks,

Bryan Kuhn

Per many top IBM bloggers this year is going to sell out so you should book early(i.e today)

It's still up in the air whether I will go or not.

2007-08-08 14:11:10 HTTP JVM: JVMDG315: JVM Requesting Heap dump file
2007-08-08 14:11:10 HTTP JVM: // Version: J2RE 1.4.2 IBM Windows 32 build cn1420-20040626

2007-08-08 14:11:10 HTTP JVM: byte[]

And goes on forever.
After some searhing it turns out the default MaxHeapSize on Domino 7 is only 64MB.

The fix to increase it is:

JavaMaxHeapSize=128MB

In notes.ini. For my application I even had to go to 512MB to be on the safe side.

Anyone else who has had these side effects? Maybe someone can be helped by this.

So I am researching the XMLfo Apache project to see if it could solve the problem. Has anyone used it with Domino? Or know of someone who has?

I just got my robotic lawn mower an here is a movie clip where it mows the front lawn. It works excellent! I can't wait for the grass to grow back up so I can use it again.

It works by setting up a perimeter wire - you might see the black cable in the clip - and the robot will keep within that area. There are two programmes. One where it follows the perimeter wire and cut the outer boundaries and one where it runs around in between the wire setup.

It uses the multiclip method where it cuts the grass into a fine dust.

One of the reasons is that often changes doesn't take(!). Like now: I've done a change in the JS Header but Domino totally ignores the change.

I've:

• dbcache flush
• quit/load the HTTP-task.

Same problem....

JS Header is the most frequent abuser, or maybe it's because that's the place I usually do changes... A quick test reveals that changes in "HTML Head Content" & "HTML Body Attributes" is honored, but NOT changes in the JS Header....

Am I missing something obvious? Surely hope so because this behaviour is consistent among many different environments I've worked on.

I use the PeriodicalExecuter in the Prototype framework. I use it to monitor different things on the site.

The thing is that I have discovered that if I hibernate my laptop while having dominoExperts online in FireFox - when I start my laptop again Firefox fires off the periodicalExecuter like crazy for a couple of minutes.

Has anyone encountered this?

Example:
xc_messageP = new PeriodicalExecuter(xc_checkMessages, 30);

When trying to download attachments from the web mail I get the message: Error unable to download file "some filename.doc" from whaterver.com.

Some attachments work, others do not.

This is probably a silly question but I need a solution.

This strange feature/behavior was at leaste new to me.

If you:

1. open a document in categorized view with a Notes client
2. change the category,
3. save the document and put it in read mode (ctrl + e)

Result: Notes will open the next document in the view and not the document you were editing. This is also true for script "uidoc.EditMode = false". Some how the uidoc is associated with the nbr in view, but the parentView of the document is nothing.

In my case the workaround is to put the action code in an agent that after changing category saves and closes the ui document and then reopens the doc with the workspace.EditDocument method.

I'm currently working on a R6.5 client. Is this true for R7 and R8?

I have had this a couple of times on the site and a total restart of the server usually resolves it (http restart does not).

Maybe this is a beta 2 issue. I should upgrade soon anyway.

That would mean retriving the view for each, get a coll.count, and return it. Not a very good idea...

Maybe a profiledocument that get's updated each time a user creates a document? Hmmm... But then there's chance of save/replication conflicts.

Servlet maybe? Haven't strayed much in to this area yet.

Ideas?

The syntax is to open a view using:

?ReadViewEntries&OutputFormat=JSON

See an example of the news view for this site in JSON format below:

http://www.dominoexperts.com/de/main.nsf/articles?readViewentries&outputformat=json

I guess this can be useful, I will try to think of an excuse to use it.

The "same" WS is used in a lot of databases, the only difference is the data it returns. What I mean to say is: It's the same functions that are used: hasErrands, getList, getDetails.

The different databases have different data of course, but the only thing that changes is the way the views are setup to display the contents. I could easily enough construct the views so that I could retrive the fieldnames to be used in the Class. But I can't construct the public variables in the class based on this information, they have to be hardcoded. Or do they?

I was thinking maybe something with "Execute"?

The benefit would be that any, less skilled, developer could easily update the WS just by updating the corresponding view. Also meaning that you could have one central repository for storing the WS and then have the different databases inherit the design from there.

Any Thoughts?

/J

When I tried a search today I found that they have at least found my example agent:

Cheers

IRC: Woonjas on EFNet's #notes

Added the originating databases ReplicaID(with and without ":") to the ACL, as Manager, of the db that contains the SubForm.

Works in the Notes client, but nothing turns up on the web.

Is it possible at all?

/Jocke

Code:
var errorHandler = function(msg, url, linenumber) {
 alert("Error: " + msg + " for " + url + " at " + linenumber);
};
window.onerror = errorHandler;

Not so much new about that. You can use try catch too to get at the info.

But I was thinking more in the direction of:
What if you took that error message and sent it back to the server in an Ajax request?

You could get a nice JavaScriptErrorLog.nsf of what JavaScript errors your users would encounter and where in your site it would occur. You could add in the name of the user and what roles he has, cookies and browserversion also if needed.

Anyone who wants to join in and code the log application? I think I have a good outline of what would be needed.

So post your missing Notes.ini settings here!

The "complete" list can be found at:

What I would like to do is to detect if a class is set and if not load a stylesheet to set it.

Anyone got any tips and how-tos for http-clustering a Domino wihout using the ICM? ICM redirection is not very friendly, nor is it actually working that well, so I want to find out more if someone got a tip for this.

Anyway - Domino and Beer - and they insist on paying me money to do this!

Domino developers are truly blessed!

Ray Ozzie would have been proud - may his soul rest in peace now that he has gone to the dark side. 

This is an old trick but I think people might still have use for it. It is possible to issue console commands from a LotusScript agent using the below code.

I have made an example that shows the number of seconds the server has been up.
Make sure you set the agent to "2. Allow restricted operations" and that the user signing the agent has console access.

Code:
Declare Sub OSMemFree Lib "nnotes.dll" (Byval hBuffer As Long)
Declare Function OSLockObject Lib "nnotes.dll" (Byval hBuffer As Long) As String
Declare Sub OSUnlockObject Lib "nnotes.dll" (Byval hBuffer As Long)
Declare Function NSFRemoteConsole Lib "nnotes.dll" (Byval ServerName As String, Byval ConsoleCommand As String, rethBuffer As Long) As Long

Sub Initialize
 Dim hBuf As Long
 Dim pBuf As String
 Dim result As Long

 Dim session As New NotesSession
 Dim db As NotesDatabase
 Set db = session.currentDatabase
 
 result = NSFRemoteConsole(db.server,"show heartbeat", hBuf)
 pBuf = OSLockObject(hBuf)
 Dim s As String
 s = Mid(pbuf, Instr(pbuf,"time: ")+6, Instr(pbuf," seconds")-Instr(pbuf,"time: ")-6) ' Extract seconds part
 Print "Server uptime: " + s + " seconds."
 Call OSUnlockObject(hBuf)
 Call OSMemFree(hBuf)
End Sub

You can test the output here for my server:

Setting cookies from a LS OpenAgent:

Code:
Sub Initialize
   Print "Status: 200"
   Print |Set-Cookie: user=Tomas Nielsen; expires=Wed, 9 Dec 2009 21:00:02 GMT; path=/|
   Print "Content-type:text/html; charset=UTF-8" ' Format a nice header telling the content type.
   Print |Cache-control: no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate| ' Not a good idea to cache this.
   Print ""
   Print |<html><head>|
   Print |<SCRIPT Language="JavaScript">|
   Print |<!--|
   Print |document.location.href = "/";| ' Send the user to the start page
   Print |//-->|
   Print |</script>|
   Print |</head></html>|
End Sub

You would probably want to change the content part of the cookie but you get the idea. Leave out the expires part if you want the cookie to die when the user closes the browser.
The "path" part is best left at pointing at the root. In domino situations you will most probably get into trouble if you set this one to point to a database. It is really hard to try to debug why your cookie is not available if you set the path wrong.

Here is an example of how to read out the cookie once the cookie is set:

Code:
Sub Initialize
 Dim session As New notessession
 Dim doc As notesDocument

 Set doc = session.documentContext
 dim user as variant
 user = Evaluate(|@Middle(HTTP_Cookie; "user="; ";");|, doc)
 print "Welcome back " + user(0) + "!"














End Sub

Anyone who has any recommendations for what you must see?

This code shows how easy it is to create a diagram/chart and to save it as a file.
The code asks explorer.exe to display the image. (windows only)
Its just an example, feel free to do what ever you want with it.
Great for web applications

Example image,  http://www.ekakan.com/www/web.nsf/JavaCharts.png

1. Go to JFree.Org
2. Download the latest version of JFreeChart
3. Extract the files to a temp directory
4. Create a new notes java agent.
5. Set Runtime target to "none"
6. Click Edit Project and add the jar files found in the temp directory where you extacted JFreeChart to your agent.
7. Paste the code showed in Example 1

import lotus.domino.*;
import org.jfree.chart.*;
import org.jfree.data.*;
import org.jfree.data.general.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
