How to Use the dsemailService Command Line Utility
Note: This applies to DocuShare 6.6.1 R2, 6.6.1 Update 2, and DocuShare 7.
Note: This information can
also be found in the Xerox DocuShare Command Line Utilities Guide
released July 2016.
Syntax:
dsemailService [option]
The dsemailService command
allows you to configure an SMTP email server. When finished, the command
creates an emailService.properties file. DocuShare then uses the SMTP email
server account information in this new properties file when sending all system
email; bypassing the original email server settings for subscription, workflow,
and Lifecycle Manager.
Option for
dsemailService
Disable This
option copies the emailService.properties file to emailService.bak, and then
deletes the emailService.properties file. After running the command with this
option, DocuShare uses the SMTP email server account information in the
original email server file to send system email.
Using dsemailService
1. Run stop_docushare.
2. Run
either dsemailService.bat in Windows or dsemailService.sh in
Linux/Solaris.
3. At
the prompt, reply Yes that you want to configure an SMTP email server.
