Using RJSDOMCHK API to test Domino Server Connectivity issues

The following API can be loaded to the AS/400 to determine what might be causing errors with the Domino Report Server such as:

NTSERR: Error opening database AS400RPT.NSF

Run the following steps to run the Domino check API:

1. Download the RJSDOMCHK library from the following web link, run the EXE and upload the library to the AS/400 using the library installation utility.

2. Sign on to the AS/400 and add the RJSDOMCHK to your library list using the following command:

ADDLIBLE RJSDOMCHK

3. Run the NTSSVRCHK command using your Domino Server name. If you're not sure what your Domino Server name is, run the WRKDOMSVR command to display a list of the Domino Servers on your AS/400 system.

Example call using Domino server RJS400:

NTSSVRCHK SVRNAME(RJS400)

4. After the NTSSVRCHK command completes, a log will be displayed on screen showing whether the command was successful or if it failed. The error messages will hopefully provide an indication of what type of problem may be occurring.

5. If you received no response from the PING in the previous step, you need to create a host table entry for your Domino Server. Use GO CFGTCP, Opt 10 "Work with TCP/IP host table entries" to create a host entry for your Domino Server.

6. Repeat steps 4 & 5 until you can PING your Domino Server.

7. Run the NTSSVRCHK command using your Domino Server name. Our example will attempt to open the ADMIN4.NSF file which is usually present on all Domino Servers.

Example: NTSSVRCHK SVRNAME(RJS400) DBFILXNAME(ADMIN4.NSF)

8. After the command runs, the error log will be displayed. Go to the bottom of the error log and work backwards to see if the command ran successfully. If it did, you should see the following message: "** Program Test completed successfully **"

9. Listed below is a secondary example you can try if NTSSVRCHK doesn't work on the first try.

Example: NTSSVRCHK SVRNAME(RJS400) DBFILXNAME(ADMIN4.NSF) PORTOVR(TCPIP)

    • Note: If the command is run multiple times, it continues to add to the log, so always page to the bottom of the log before viewing the messages.
