Homemade Cleaner for Dishwasher

I live in NZ. We don't have Wal-Mart, Lemi-Shine, or Jet Dry Dishwasher cleaner. What would I use in NZ? I've used white vinegar as a rinse aid, but the glasses and other dishes still have white film on them. Also, my dishwasher has slimy gunk on the rubber across the bottom of the door (inside). I do rinse off the worst of the food before putting the dishes in dishwasher. How do I prevent the build up?

My mother had the same problem with a new dishwasher in her apt. I asked the maintenance man to turn up the water heater for her. This took care of the problem, they'd turned it down after they changed out her water heater. Good luck.
