"Error in Agent" or "Error loading USE or USELSX" running Out-of-Office agent after upgrading to Domino 6.x

Question After upgrading from one Lotus® Domino® server version to another (for example, 5.0.11 to 6.x), you find that the Out of Office agent does not work and produces errors written to the console and the log (if enabled). The error message in the Domino console is as follows: "Error in Agent ´OutOfOffice OutOfOffice´ calling script library ´Common´: Script library signer ´CN=ServerA/O=Widgets´ does not have proper rights Agent ´OutOfOffice OutOfOffice´ error: Error loading USE or USELSX module: Common AMgr: Agent ´outofoffice´ in ´mail\jdoe.nsf´ completed execution" Maintenance on the database did not resolve the problem, nor did replacing the design or running fixup, updall -r, or compact.

Lotusscript to establish ODBC connection:

The script, when executed from a button, will create a new record in a specified ODBC data source, attempt to save the new record and display a message indicating whether the operation was completed successfully. If the operation is not completed sucessfully, it is likely that either your data source is read-only or your ODBC driver does not permit updates to the data source. Important: Complete each of the four steps below before running the script. 1. Create a new agent and add the following UseLSX command to the Options event: UseLSX "*LSXODBC" 2. Add the following script to the Initialize event of the agent. NOTE: Do not add the 'Sub' and 'End Sub' lines. Dim ui As New NotesUIWorkspace     Dim uidoc As NotesUIDocument     Dim doc As NotesDocument     Dim connection As ODBCConnection     Dim query As ODBCQuery     Dim result As ODBCResultSet         Set uidoc=ui.CurrentDocument ...
