Hello!

I have setup a new BES seperate from our normal domain to trial 4.1, it installed fine but I can't get any devices activated. The DAT file is sent to my inbox and the Domino server is accessing the mailfile but it just hangs on "Activating...."

After 10 minutes it says "The Server Is Not Responding". There is noting on the Domino console to say that activation has started, the State database is created but there is a message saying "PIM State data does not exist for user"

Any ideas, i'm doing my nut over this!

PS tried it with two different devices with two different OS's and two different users.

Ah the plot thinkens!

Just tried activating it via the cable and it works!

Do you have the proper port open on your firewall? Ie. 3101 TCP Outbound?

Without the port open your BES can't talk to RIM and vise versa. I want to see if I can use this key on BES 4.1 for Exchange would be cool if it works.

The SRP is showing as connected, and when I test connection to the srp.uk.blackberry.net it works fine.

Does this second domain allow external imcoming email? From Blackberry.net? Spam filters?

Sorry, same notes domain. By different Domain I mean Notes enviroment, ir not attached to the Main SQL Database

Too early in the morning, you already said the email arrives and domino processes it. So therefore it is a server issue. Check your permissions and all that good domino stuff.

Early? Its mid afternoon here!

All services running under the Local systems account, the Domino server is in the LocalDomainServer group in the Domino Directory which has manager access on the Mailfile.
