Move the Personality.zip file inside this folder, right-click it, and choose "Extract Here". I just created a "NotesInstall" folder on my Desktop.
#Ibm notes client configuration install
This will extract 3 files: Personality.zip, readme.pdf, and setuplinux.bin.Ĭreate a temporary folder to extract the install files, which are all in the Personality.zip file.
#Ibm notes client configuration zip file
I renamed it to Notes7Linux.zip so I'd know what it was later.Īnyway, just right-click the ZIP file and choose "Extract Here". I think it was originally C93D1NA.zip or something. You'll start with a ZIP file that contains all the installation files for the client. I ran up2date before starting the Notes client install process.Īlso note that I was logged in as a non-root user during the install. My CentOS install was the default workstation install, with no customizations. You'll also need about 2 GB of free space to handle the install files, the temp files, and all the new program files. It worked, but a larger RAM allotment would have been much more comfortable. This is probably obvious, but the first thing you have to do is download the Notes client install package and set up your Linux workstation.įor my testing, I installed CentOS-4 on a VMWare virtual machine with 384 MB of RAM. And read the readme.pdf file that gets extracted when you unzip the install files - there are a lot of known issues (and a few workarounds) in there. There's also a Technote with known limitations of the Linux client. If you have problems, a good place to start looking for answers is the IBM Knowledge Collection Technote: IBM Lotus Notes client for Linux. If you want to use an older version of the Notes client on Linux, you can always try running it with Wine. If you want to install on another distro, you might want to take a look at this wiki page that talks about installing the client on Debian for some pointers.Īlso, the Linux client install files are currently only available to Passport customers, so you won't be able to find a trial version for download on the public Lotus site. I used CentOS-4, which is built from the RHEL sources and aims to be 100% binary compatible with Red Hat, and I had no problems.

One general caveat: the current client install (at the time of this writing, August 2006) is only supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux v4 update 3 (RHEL4), so there may be other things you have to do if you are on another distro (or if you have a non-standard RHEL setup).
For the most part you just need to read the readme.pdf file that comes with the installation files and follow the instructions, but I know that screenshots are nice sometimes too (click on any of the screenshots below to get 800圆00 images). These are some screenshots outlining my install of the Lotus Notes 7.0.1 Linux Client. NOTE: If you're going to print this out, it would be wise to print Landscape instead of Portrait.
