TechLesson of the day - Language Pack installer does not find Domino server- 7 November 2012 - (2) Comments

A small lesson learned today:

When applying a language pack to a Domino server, the following error message will appear
Image:TechLesson of the day - Language Pack installer does not find Domino server
Could not find any indications of a Domino server in your selected paths, either path(s) are incorrect, or you do not have a Domino server at the location. please confirm selected path(s) are correct. [OK]

Root cause: The Domino data directory did not contain a the file "pubnames.ntf", some admin thought it would be a good idea to delete all *.ntf files from the server.
So of course a Language Pack could not be installed.

In case of further problems, check this technote for troubleshooting language pack installation issues.
