SYMPTOMS
When you log off a computer that is running Windows NT Workstation or Server 4.0 and Lotus Notes 4.5.2, the Monitor service, which is installed from the Resource Kit as part of the Data Logging service, unexpectedly stops running but produces no error message. This occurs whether you start the Monitor service manually or by using the Schedule service.
You may also encounter the following application event log entries:
When you log on again, the Monitor service is no longer running, and you must manually restart it.
If Compaq Insight Agent is installed on the computer, you may also encounter the following application event log entry:
RESOLUTION
To resolve this behavior, remove Lotus Notes, delete the registry entry for the Lotus Notes Monitor Agent, and then reinstall Lotus Notes without choosing the Notes Monitor Agent installation option:
WARNING: If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
- Remove Lotus Notes.
- Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
- Locate and click the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\notestat
- On the Edit menu, click Delete.
- Quit Registry Editor.
- Reinstall Lotus Notes. During the installation, do not click the Notes Monitor Agent installation option.
These steps also resolve the Compaq Insight Agent "Dr. Watson" error message.
If this does not resolve events 1900 and 1999, make this additional change in the registry:
- Start Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe).
- Locate and click the following key in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Notestat\Performance
- Double-click Reg_sz to open the key.
- Change the value Nnotes.dll to xxnnotes.dll, and then click OK.
- Quit Registry Editor.
