Question:

How to change temporary folder for Content and Workflow Server.


Answer:

Since version 6.11 the temp folder for Content and Workflow Server is not defined in DocuWare Administration anymore.

The folder that the temp files are located in is defined by file dwmachine.config in folder %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\DocuWare\ServerConfig.
Best practice is to use a little commandline tool which is existing in every DocuWare installation to adapt the path to the path which is best for you.
How to:
- open new command line with administrative rights (Windows key, cmd -->right mouse click -->Run as administrator)
- switch to folder C:\Program Files (x86)\DocuWare\Setup Components
- execute following command then:
DocuWare.ServerSetupCmd.exe configurePath --tempPath="%TEMP%\DocuWare"
(The path between "" can be defined as you want but it should be a local folder which is existing already)

The tool is also checking if the given path is existing. If it shouldn`t an according error message is displayed.
Automatically sub folders for Content and Workflow Server are being created.
