Question:
How do I find out the currently installed/used DocuWare version?
Answer:
There are four ways to obtain this information;
- Navigate to the DocuWare Web Client. From the dropdown underneath your user name, select Help & Info > About DocuWare
A window is shown that contains the DocuWare version number under the Version section.
- Starting from DocuWare Version 7.0, you can find the version information in the file path of the specific module in the file VersionFile.xml.
Path: ...\DocuWare\module name\VersionFile.xml
Example path: ...\DocuWare\Authentication Server\VersionFile.xml
Example of VersionFile.xml:
<DocuWareVersion>
<VersionStrings>
<VersionString Key="ReleaseName" Value="Version 7.9" />
<VersionString Key="BuildName" Value="Tucan Stable_20230915.1" />
<VersionString Key="FileVersion" Value="7.9.0.4598" />
</VersionStrings>
</DocuWareVersion> - You can get the version with the .NET API with the following code.
ServiceConnection serviceConnection = Service.Create(new Uri(PlatformURL), Username, password);
Console.WriteLine(serviceConnection.ServiceDescription.Version); - On DocuWare versions older than 7.3, open the "Details" tab of the file ...\DocuWare\Authentication Server\DocuWare.Common.dll.
