Why Is the Last Line in the NOTES.INI Not Taking Effect?
debug_threadid=1
debug_outfile=path\debug.txt
Without a hard carriage return after the last line, the DEBUG.TXT file will never be created and as a result information will not be written to this file.
DSTLaw=
Without a hard carriage return after the last line, mail that is created and sent on the client is stamped as 1 hour early when in Daylight Savings Time (DST).

Any parameter that is added as the last line in the NOTES.INI file requires that there be a hard carriage return (the ENTER key) after the last line to ensure that it will take effect. Without a hard carriage return, the last line will not be recognized.

Why Is the Last Line in the NOTES.INI Not Taking Effect?

Problem
When adding parameters to the NOTES.INI
file on the Notes client or Domino server, you notice that the last line
is not taking effect. Why is this?
Some examples:
- The following debug parameters are added as the last lines of the NOTES.INI on the server:
debug_threadid=1
debug_outfile=path\debug.txt
Without a hard carriage return after the last line, the DEBUG.TXT file will never be created and as a result information will not be written to this file.
- The following parameter is added as the last line of the NOTES.INI on the workstation:
DSTLaw=
Without a hard carriage return after the last line, mail that is created and sent on the client is stamped as 1 hour early when in Daylight Savings Time (DST).
