Lab Project: Documentum Webtop Viewer

In this lab project we will embedding AccelSee Viewer into Webtop (Documentum client), no scripting/programming was needed for this project.

Here is the list that you need to prepare (install these software) before doing this project.

1. Documentum Content Server 6.5 & Webtop 6.5(installed within same or different servers). Content Server can be installed in any operating system that Documentum supports (Linux, Solaris, or Windows), but in this lab we asume that Content server & Webtop (deployed on Apache Tomcat 6.0) was installed in Windows server 2008. We will call this server as “Documentum server“
2. AccelSee 0.1.20 or higher. We will call this server as “AccelSee server“

In this lab, we assuming that we have two servers and one client computer (yours) that connected into same Local Area Network. The detail about our server configuration can be seen in the following diagram:

Before we begin, here some checklist that you need to do

1. Connect using Remote desktop to Documentum server.
2. Go to Administrative Tools – Services
3. Make sure your Java Method Server is Running.
4. Go to Administrative Tools – Windows Firewall
5. Add new rule for Inbound connection for Port 9080/TCP. Name it Java Method Server.
6. Now open Internet Explorer on your computer (not the server), open http://192.168.1.100:9080/. You need to see JBoss default page if your firewall allows incoming traffic on port 9080.

After you follow above steps, now lets begin the real integration process, here is the steps to follow:

1. Connect using Remote desktop to Documentum server.
2. Open windows explorer, open the integration folder  in AccelSee server by typing the following UNC address \\192.168.1.101\c$\accelsee\integration
3. Browse to webtop folder, copy all files & folders in that folder.
4. Open another windows explorer, browse to Tomcat webapps folder (C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\webtop)
5. Locate webtop folder
6. Paste the integration files into webtop folder (replace all).
7. Open accelseeviewer_component.xml in (C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\webtop\accelsee\config)
8. Change centralservicesurl value to http://192.168.1.101/clientservices/
   



9. Restart your Tomcat.
10. Now we need to configure AccelSee server with your Documentum repository information,
11. Connect using Remote desktop to AccelSee server
12. Open your Internet Explorer, go to http://localhost:8777/console/
13. Go to Configuration - Repository
14. Click New Repository button
15. Choose Documentum
16. Type “DEMO” in name (this is AccelSee repository name, not Documentum name)
17. Type “DEMO” in Default repository name (this is Documentum repository name). This value will be used when you have multiple repositories configured in a DFS server.
18. Type “http://192.168.1.100:9080/services/“ in DFS Endpoint
19. Click Validate
20. Click Save

Now, we ready for first testing, follow this steps to validate your configuration:

1. Open the webtop from your computer
2. Import a file for document view testing.
3. Select the file, right click and choose Open(read only) or double click to open the document in popup window.
