Widget Woes

Tags: Lotus Notes Widgets 8.0.1 Bug

Initially I had setup the client with a local widget store called toolbox.nsf.
When I configured a widget catalog on the server and changed the config to use the catalog from the server (toolbox.nsf) it came up with a prompt telling me that the toolbox.nsf was already present and that  a new replica could not be created. So I closed out of the client, and removed the toolbox.nsf from my client's data directory, and restarted the client, only to find the following error popping up again, eventhough there was no local toolbox.nsf anymore as you can see in the following screen shot:
A picture named M2

Changing the name to toolbox2.nsf in the widget prefs resulted in creating a local replica of the toolbox.nsf on the server with the name toolbox2.nsf and all is well now.

What leaves me to wonder where does he client store the information about the local widget store that caused the above error message eventhough there really was NO local toolbox.nsf
