HCL Domino Ideas Portal
Welcome to the #dominoforever Product Ideas Forum! The place where you can submit product ideas and enhancement request. We encourage you to participate by voting on, commenting on, and creating new ideas. All new ideas will be evaluated by HCL Product Management & Engineering teams, and the next steps will be communicated. While not all submitted ideas will be executed upon, community feedback will play a key role in influencing which ideas are and when they will be implemented.

There are multiple ways to run the setup. The pitfall you ran into is that the location of the notes.ini changed from program directory to data directory beginning with Domino 14 on Windows for a standard server (partitioned servers and Unix servers always had the notes.ini in the data directory).
The notes.ini needs to be found by the server process when starting.
A safe bet is always to specify the notes.ini via =c:\notesdata\notes.ini. This will always work.
The documentation would need to distinct between different versions.
Someone hitting the 14.0 documentation might configure a 12.0.x server and would run into the same challenge the other way round.
The documentation has a feedback button on every page.
AHA ideas are more for product features. The feedback on the documentation pages directly go into the right channel.
