The error message from the job log indicated a problem with lacobrts.dll. The actual problem was related to the local security policy. This error was resolved by reviewing the setup for the lawbatch id. The LSF system in this example had a secured ldapbind. The domain lawbatch id should be added to the Local Security Policy under User Rights Assignment for “Log on as a batch job” and “Allow log on locally.”

We just added a new productline to our environment. When I go into Employee Self-Service, I get an error message saying, “Error retrieving user profile information. Contact your system administrator for assistance.” How can we correct this?
This can happen when the services for the productline were not added to the system. The service can be added by going to %GENDIR%\install\agents. For example, D:\lawprod\gen\install\agents.
ssoconfig -l password PROD_Employee.xml
After the file has been loaded, the new service should appear in security administrator.
You can then add the appropriate company and employee number for the user that was getting the error.
Many of our clients would like to lock down their external websites to EMSS only, because it is a security risk to allow super users to access HR & Financials from the web. The official word is that this cannot be done in Lawson. However, Nogalis has devised a method to remove the search box and all but the desired bookmarks from the external Lawson website. (See a sample below.) If you would like to have this done at your organization, please contact us today!

When installing SharePoint Foundation 2013 for Ming.le, you may see an error saying, “This product requires Microsoft .Net Framework 4.5.” After reviewing the installation, you see that .Net 4.5 is already installed. So why does the error appear? This can happen because SharePoint does not recognize a later update to the .Net Framework. As a workaround, you can check to see if updates have been installed through Control Panel – Programs – Programs and Features – Installed Updates. The updates to .Net could be in KB’s 3102467, 3151800, 3102436, or 3045557. Select the KB and uninstall it through the control panel. After removing the update and restarting the server, the SharePoint installation can continue.
There are several ways to trigger an IPA process, including 4GL triggers and scheduling. One simple and low-overhead method is to use a HTTP(S) call.
HTTP(S) calls can be used to trigger a Process or a Service. To begin, you should have the process uploaded into IPA. Then you should create the Process or the Service Trigger. These can be created in Rich Client or in the IPA Admin web tool, but note that the following instructions use the verbiage & menus in Rich Client.
