Today I had to do some maintenance on a Lotus Notes Application. This is a software that I inherited not from a quick and dirty programmer but a more quick and more dirty programmer. This guy never ever tested his code. One function locks a section with the role „Excemption“. But the role in the ACL is „Exemption“ (for years). So you have to find all documents where this section is locked add the wrong role to the ACL unlock the section and lock the section with the right role. After all remove the wrong role in the ACL. So much effort because a simple function wasn’t tested.
Good night Germany wherever you are…
