Question:
Which ports are used by DocuWare Fulltext server?
Answer:
DocuWare Fulltext server uses Apache Tomcat Server. This server is using port 8005 by default. When running additional Tomcat servers it is not possible to use the same port. Docuware Fulltext server will not start successfully. The port of Docuware Fulltext Server can be changed easily. In the program folder of Docuware Fulltext Server (for example C:\Program Files\DocuWare\Full-Text Server (x64)) you can find the folder "conf". In this folder is the file server.xml.
This file can be edited with a text editor.
In line <Server port="8005" shutdown="SHUTDOWN"> just enter the port number of your choice. Fulltext server will start successfully afterwards.
Also the port for the Solr connection can be edited in the server.xml file. This is 9012 by default.
In line <Connector port="9012" protocol="HTTP/1.1" you just have to change the port number. DocuWare Fulltext Server has to be restarted afterwards. When changing this port an additional change in DocuWare administration is necessary. The Fulltext server connection has to be changed to the new port number.
Attached an example where Solr port number was changed to 14500.
