Creating attached documents directories for two computers and a local Hypertext Transfer Protocol server

The first step in configuring your system for attached documents is to create directories to store files.

Procedure

  1. Stop the WebSphere® Application Server.
  2. Create the following subdirectories under doclinks:
    • attachments
    • default
    • diagrams
    • images
  3. Verify the directory structure, and complete the following steps:
    1. Create another directory named WEB-INF.
    2. Go to the doclinks directory created in Step 1.
    3. Copy the web.xml file from the deployment folder into the WEB-INF directory that you created.

      The system contains several additional web.xml files. Be sure to copy the correct one.

      • For Windows, the web.xml file is: c:install_home\deployment
      • For UNIX, the web.xml file is: install_home/deployment

      The file contains mime-mapping information that you can customize.

    4. Verify the directory structure.

Example

The directories are found in the following locations:
Operating system Doclinks directory
Windows D:\doclinks
UNIX /home/doclinks
