Hi All,
I want to configure attach document in mx7.5 , If any one have document for that please send.........
I heared there is a problem with attachdocument and its fixed in patch 1 , is it true?
Please help...........
Thank in advance
Regards
I am running attached documents in 7.5 with no problem that I know of...
On Windows Server 2008 r2 and WAS 7 with a seperate SQL Server 2008 r2:
We went for the simple setup, and are using the local c:\doclinks for storage of the files. If you are doing files off a file store then the drive just needs to be mapped. There is really good documentation directly from IBM. it is at:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tivihelp/v49r1/topic/com.ibm.mbs.doc/fm_sag/attacheddocs/t_attached_doc_config_admin.html
The only gotcha is the settings. I had to open a PMR to get the correct ones. I have put them below so you don't have to.
In system properties these are the values (case is important!):
Property Name Value
mxe.doclink.defaultPrintDocWithReport true
mxe.doclink.doctypes.allowedFileExtensions pdf,zip,txt,doc,docx,dwg,gif,jpg,csv,xls,xlsx,,ppt,xml,xsl,bmp,html
mxe.doclink.doctypes.defpath C:\DOCLINKS\default
mxe.doclink.doctypes.topLevelPaths C:\DOCLINKS
mxe.doclink.maxfilesize 10
mxe.doclink.multilang.aix.websphere false
mxe.doclink.multilang.hpux.websphere false
mxe.doclink.multilang.linux.websphere false
mxe.doclink.multilang.solaris.websphere false
mxe.doclink.multilang.windows.websphere true
mxe.doclink.path01 C<PATH>\DOCLINKS = https://<<SERVER>>
mxe.doclink.securedAttachment false
mxe.doclink.securedAttachmentDebug false

Instead of doing that, I strongly recommend giving Support a call and asking
them to help. There's a guy who knows all about this, and it can be VERY
complicated to get working correctly. I talked to him about getting a
client set up, and that was one of my better decisions.

I appreciate your information here, and I have followed all the settings that you mentioned, as well as the ones for the httpd.conf file described in the IBM link. Issue I am having is that the files are attaching to the proper folder structure, but when a user clicks on the link to view the attachment it takes them directly to the START CENTER. I look at the URL of the newly opened window and all the pieces are there, plus the /maximo/ui, so that the link looks like http://<server>/maximo/ui/DOCLINKSATTACHMENTfilename
If I remove the /maximo/ui/DOCLINKS and add a / after ATTACHMENT then the file opens properly. Any suggestions or thoughts.
Thanks in advance,

You need to modify the mxe.doclink.path01 parameter to point to your http
server correctly, including a "/" at the end of the mapping, i.e.
C:\doclinks = http:// <http://%3chttpserver%3e/> <httpserver>/
Note that the <httpserver> may have to be an FQDN.
This may not be totally correct (apparently it can vary depending on the
other setup stuff you did), but you get the idea . keep in mind that some of
this stuff is case-sensitive too (just to complicate things!).

It's been a quite a while since I set this up, and I do remember it being sort of tricky. The only differences I have in my configuration from what you have stated:
mxe.doclink.doctypes.topLevelPaths = \DOCLINKS
mxe.doclink.multilang.* = false (I have these all set to false, can't remember why now, but it works)
I assume you have an actual value for the URL in your path01 property?

Thank You for your reply.
I managed to get it working. I had to goto manage folders, and put in the D: in front of the listed paths..
