FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1x
Windows
SYMPTOM(s):
CLASSPATH is not taken into account when running ActiveX Open Client from Lotus Notes
Getting the error below:
Cannot supply requested class
The CLASSPATH system environment variable contains the o4glrt.zip file
The ActiveX Open Client works fine from any other application.
CAUSE:
For an unknown reason, Lotus Notes does not take into account the CLASSPATH environment variable.
Instead, it uses the default CLASSPATH from the Microsoft Java Virtual Machine (JVM) which only contains a reference to C:\WINDOWS\java\classes (depending on the Windows version and assuming Windows is installed in C:\).
FIX:
Add the o4glrt.zip file (with the complete path) in the default CLASSPATH of the Microsoft JVM
This information is stored in the Windows registry in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Java VM\Classpath
Follow the steps below to update the registry:
1- Open the Windows registry with regedit for example
2- Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Java VM
3- On the right side, the Classpath entry contains the information: C:\WINDOWS\java\classes;.
Update it as follows: C:\WINDOWS\java\classes;<Path>\o4glrt.zip;.
<Path> represents the directory where the o4glrt.zip file is located.
