In the end, I went with: -
- Install Lotus Domino 8.0.1
- Start the server to perform the initial configuration, allocate an administrative user ( domadmin ), load the HTTP task etc.
- Stop the server
- Install Lotus Quickr Services for Lotus Domino 8.1 ( I opted to use the same user ID - domadmin - and password for the Quickr installation, even though my first act would be to configure it to use Domino Directory )
- Start the server
- Open a browser to the default Quickr home page: -
http://hostname.domain.com/LotusQuickr/lotusquickr/main.nsf - Log in using the domadmin user ID and password
- Configure Quickr to use Domino Directory
- Log out
- Stop the server
- Copy 8.1-Quickr-Domino-HF19-ENGLISH.jar to C:\Lotus\Domino\jvm\lib\ext
- Add C:\Lotus\Domino to the Windows system path
- Execute the JAR file and point it at the notes.ini file in C:\Lotus\Domino
- Once installed, start the server
- Unlock and upgrade the Quickr databases: -
load qptool unlock –a
load qptool upgrade -f –server
load qptool upgrade -f –a - Job done
as well as in the page source: -

It's great to see other people's upgrade scripts like this. Thanks for sharing.
I noticed you used an admin account from the Domino directory for the Quickr administrater. If you read Rob Novak's post here http://www.lotusrockstar.com/blog/robblog.nsf/d6plinks/RNOK-7J58J4
...you will see that #10 recommends that you NOT used an admin account from the directory.
FWIW
Hi Chris, thanks for your input - you're quite right; I would be following Rob's advice if this wasn't purely a desvelopment/test environment. Thanks for the feedback; much appreciated, regards, Dave
It seems like all fixes to Quickr 8.1 currently are available for English only. I was trying to apply HF19 to my German installation, it worked fine until I found out that all templates were english after install... Does anyone know if there is a solution?
