Editing default file paths in related applications for two computers and a dedicated Hypertext Transfer Protocol server

Once you modify the location of the doclinks directory, you can edit the specified file paths in the system. To edit default file paths, complete the following steps in any application that uses the Attached Documents action. These steps are for systems running WebSphere® Application Server or WebLogic Server.

Before you begin

You must have authorization to edit file paths in the Attached Documents action.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the system and open an application that has the Attached Documents action.
  2. Select the Attachment Library/Folders action and then select Manage Folders.
  3. In the Manage All Document folders window, click the Details icon next to the document folder whose file path you want to change.
  4. In the Default File Path field, edit the path to specify the new location of the associated directory. Type the full path using the mapped drive letter.

    The drive letter, path, and folder names are case-sensitive and must be under the same path and folder names that you created earlier.

    Change the file paths for the Attachments, CAD, Diagrams, and Images folders to:

    Operating system File paths
    Windows

    H:\doclinks\attachments

    H:\doclinks\cad

    H:\doclinks\diagrams

    H:\doclinks\images

    UNIX

    /d01/doclinks/attachments

    /d01/doclinks/cad

    /d01/doclinks/diagrams

    /d01/doclinks/images

    If you create additional attached document folders, you also edit their file paths.

  5. Click OK.
  6. Restart the application server.
