Issue Troubleshooting

Process:
Installed Mac 64-bit 9.0.1 IF16, also IBM Notes Hotfix 901SHF993.
Upgraded to OSX 10.13 High Sierra to 10.14 OSX Mojave.


Issue:
Notes Client started successfully. However, 5 to 10 seconds later, the Notes client displays a message saying "NSD is running".
After NSD runs, and the client closes, the Apple reporting starts. A secondary terminal window with senddiag error reporting locating the "X86_64" java.


Troubleshooting:
Upgraded Java to latest 1.81 production build available, and restarted OSX and started Notes. Still crashed.

Removed Expeditor workspace folder. Restarted Notes. Still crashed 3 to 10 seconds later.

NSD folder console logs shows that IF15 (HF833) might still be installed?
Opened IBM Notes Hotfix 901shf993 (IF 16) again, installed IBM Notes Hotfix.pkg. Crash still occurred.


Solution:
1. Removed the Expeditor/workspace folder.
2. Uninstalled IBM Notes using original 9.0.1 64-bit install package, "Uninstaller.app" (within the pkg: Notes_V9.0.1_MAC_64B_EN.dmg).
3. Installed IBM Notes using the "IBM Notes Installer.pkg" (within the same package).
< don't run Notes>
4. Installed IBM Notes Hotfix 901SHF993, via "IBM Notes Hotfix.pkg"
5. Started Notes.

I left the IBM Notes Data folder intact except for the aforementioned Expeditor/workspace folder and contents.
