While initiating a chat session in the embedded Sametime client of Lotus Notes 8.0.1 I got the message “A Runtime Error has occured. Do you wish to debug? Line: 0 Error: Object expected”.
This also happened when another person started a chat with me.
The solution was to check the following options in Internet Explorer (Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced):
Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer)
Disable Script Debugging (Other)
I also unchecked the option “Display a notification about every script error”.
After that the embedded Sametime client worked as expected again.
Embedded Sametime client in Notes 8.0.1 generates “Runtime Error” message
Try disabling JavaScript debugging in IE. That should fix it.
Hi Bruce,
I think that “Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer) /
Disable Script Debugging (Other)” was the option you meant?
That was what I did and it worked for me.
Unfortunately this is a block to rollout for us. We simply cant turn off disable script debugging for a large group of java/html developers… Its essential to their job.
I have escalated to IBM L2 and they say it wont be fixed until 8.0.2. This is ridiculous.
Anyone have other ideas for a workaround?
Andy
