# There's no "Show Java Debug Console" option in my Lotus Notes client

The Show Java Debug Console menu is considered an Advanced Menu in Notes 8 and higher and if enabled, it is available under the Tools menu. Click on the below image for a bigger display.

If you have Lotus Notes, Lotus Domino Designer® client and Domino Administrator client installed on your workstation, but the Show Java Debug Console menu does not appear in the Tools menu, then you need to enable the Advanced Menus by selecting View (1) -> Advanced Menus (2) in Notes (see below image). After that, the Show Java Debug Console menu will appear under the Tools menu as in the above image.

If you have a Notes-Only installation on your workstation then the Advanced Menus are **not available** by default. In this case, the following parameter can be supplied in your notes.ini file which will enable access to advanced menu actions: MenusAdvanced=1

In Lotus Notes 6 or 7, the Show Java Debug Console menu is found in File > Tools > Show Java Debug Console.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.swingsoftware.com/pdf-converter-for-notes/tips-miscellaneous/no-java-debug-console.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
