QUESTION

What does this warning mean?: Can't call method "close"/package or object reference/Outlook2Notes.pl line 241//line 164.

ANSWER

The application that generated this warning was writen in the Perl programming language.

The warning is the Perl interpreter saying that it cannot close the OLE variable that represents a Lotus database connection. For whatever reason, the machine won't release the memory. The processing is complete at this point, so the data is not affected. Perl is chatty... Warnings could have been completely supressed, however, they were left on in this instance so that true issues would not be masked (i.e., if they were completely masked, there would be no warning to send to for support).

Before you run Outlook2Notes again, press ctl-alt-delete and verify that process nlnotes.exe is not running. If it is, stop the process. The Perl command at line 241 was trying close the nlnotes process...
