I am trying to setup TieCal to sync with my Lotus Notes 8.5 running
under Windows 7 x64. It fails with the following error message;
"Failed to communicate with calendar applications. This usually means
that Outlook and/or Lotus Notes isn't installed.
Tested versions are: Lotus Notes 7.0.2 and Outlook 2007
TieCal will now exit"

Lotus Notes and Outlook 2007 are installed and working.
How can I get this to work ? Am I doing something wrong ?

It's probably the fact that you're on 64bit windows.. I recently got a
x64 win7 machine and had to rebuild TieCal with 32-bit support to make
it work.. I'll upload a 0.5.1 release that fixes that. In the
meantime, if you want to (and have the tools) you can open the source
code in visual studio 2008 and change platform to be 32bit and
recompile. This should fix it for you.

But as mentioned, I'll upload a fixed version in the next few days.

0.5.1 is released with a few bug fixes and it should run fine on Win7
x64.

This is also tested with Notes 8.5

Isak,

Thank you for the new version. Unfortunately it crashed when trying
to change the Lotus Notes DB.
Error Message;
Unhandled Exception:
Type: System.AccessViolationException
Message: Attempt to read or write protected memory. This is often an
indication that other memory is corrupt.
..and then it goes on to list a Stack Trace of many lines.
Looks like it is failing when trying to CreateNotesSession() in line
34.

It is possible that TieCal expects files to be in a certain place. My
Lotus Notes load has been copied from another
Thinkpad. The files are probably not exaclty where they are supposed
to be.
