Unable to initialize Computer, and it can't be used at this time...

Posted on

After upgrading Notes Client on Linux to 8.5.3 (it is in fact related to update of embedded sametime to 8.5.1) I started to get an error message “Unable to initialize Computer, and it can’t be used at this time. Processed unsuccessful response: null for: REGISTER…” and then there were some details about the connection. Quick Goggle search helped: How to suppress SIP registration failures in the Sametime 8.5x client

Another variant of this error is on the picture. Both errors stopped appearing after adding the com.ibm.collaboration.realtime.telephony.softphone/suppress.failed.sip.registration=true line to /opt/ibm/lotus/notes/framework/rcp/plugin_customization.ini file.

It should work on Windows too, but I don’t know if this error happens there as well. Let me know if it does and whether this “fix” works there.
