• Lotus Domino server 8.0.1 (it MUST be this version, not 8.0.0)
• Lotus Quickr 8.1 (either from Passport Advantage, Partnerworld, or the trial version)

• STEP 1: Install Domino 8.0.1. You should just have to double-click the install package and follow the prompts. You can use the default settings.
  
  
• STEP 2: Double-click the "Lotus Domino Server" icon to launch the Server Setup routine. You can use the default settings except for the "Internet Services" page in the setup wizard, where you should make sure that HTTP and LDAP are both checked.
  
  
• STEP 3: After setup is complete, double-click the "Lotus Domino Server" icon again to start the server. Allow the server to run for at least 5 minutes so it can build all the necessary databases and indexes. If there is firewall software on your server, make sure that (at a minimum) port 80 and 1352 are open, and nserver.exe and nhttp.exe are allowed to listen for connections.
  
  
• STEP 4: Using a Lotus Notes client or Domino Administrator, open your server document in the Domino Directory and go to the "Internet Protocols", "Domino Web Engine" tab. Make sure your server is using the Domino servlet engine, and also that session-based authentication is NOT enabled (we can re-enable it after Quickr is set up, if desired).
  
  
• STEP 5: Shut down the Domino server.
  
  
• STEP 6: Install Quickr 8.1. When you double-click the eAssembly package it will unzip all the install files to a directory of your choice (your temp directory by default). After the files have been unzipped, you'll need to browse to the directory they were unzipped to and look for a "server" subdirectory. Double-click the "setup.exe" file in that subdirectory to launch the Quickr Setup routine. You can use the default settings, and you will be prompted to create the Quickr Admin user during setup -- NOTE: the Quickr Admin user MUST be a name that is unique to Quickr and is not already in the Domino directory (for example, "quickradmin" or something similar).
  
  
• STEP 7: Restart the Domino server.
  
  
• STEP 8: Open Internet Explorer or Firefox and browse to http://your.server.dns/LotusQuickr . Use the "Log In" link at the top right of the welcome page to log in as the Quickr Admin user you specified in Step 6. After logging in, you will see a "Site Administration" link at the bottom left of the page.
  
  
• STEP 9: Go to "Site Administration" and choose the "User Directory" link. In the "directory type" field choose "LDAP Server", and in the "name" field enter the DNS name of your Domino server (for testing on the local server you can use 127.0.0.1 as the name, although in a production environment you will need to use a valid DNS host name).
  
  

• Visit IBM Fix Central and grab the latest Quickr HotFix, and apply it using the instructions supplied.
  
  
• You should also enable session-based authentication on your server. If you do this, you MUST use "multi-server" session-based authentication (not single server) and follow the directions for customizing the domcfg.nsf login form, found in the Quickr Admin Guide.
