GetDatabase error: "file does not exist"

I have this simple action in LotusScript

Sub Click(Source As Button)
    On error goto ErrorHandler

    Dim session as New NotesSession
    Dim DbLog As NotesDatabase
    Set DbLog = session.Getdatabase( "SERVER01", "NAMES.NSF", False )
    Print "Ok"

    Exit Sub
ErrorHandler:
    Print "Error " + Cstr(Err) + ": " + Error
    Exit Sub
End Sub

This works fine in Lotus Notes 8.5.3, but does not work in Lotus Notes 9.

I debugged and, in Lotus Notes 9, when it try to execute the line "session.GetDatabase", it returns "Error 4000: Notes error: file does not exist".

Before you ask, the ACL is ok, the database is not corrupted, etc. because it works with a Lotus Notes 8.5 client. The server is 8.5.2 FP3.

Please, I need your help.

TIA,

 

Update 2013.10.15: I update Lotus Notes to Release 9.0 SHF316, but the error still...

Update 2013.10.15 - 2:  I try to report as an incident, but the link is broken. Damn.

The same occurs with other databases...

I think the problem is using Notes 9 with Domino 8.5

Resolved: local names.nsf no created

When I tried to modify location configuration, I got this message: "local names.nsf does not exist". I created it manually and Lotus Notes start to function again.

Maybe, as I made a clean install, EXCEPT that I used the desktop8.ndk file from my previous installation, the installer didn't check the names.nsf existence. I don't know. However, the problem was resolved.
