The self-deleting stcore.jar file

This is an odd one.   Support call
today for a recent Sametime 7 installation.  The customer had not
touched the server since I set it up, and only rebooted it.  After
reboot, Sametime won’t work and this error appears in the log file:

Well, after a bit of digging, I found
a blog
post with a similar error.  It
seems the stcore.jar disappeared from the \lotus\domino directory.  Get
another copy of the file, pop it in, and all is well.

One for the strange basket!
