Install Components On a Windows File Server

Some components of the Publisher must be installed on the Windows file server from which documents will be published to the destination system.

For information about the security rights required for the Windows file system publishing service, see Security Requirements.

To install components on a Windows file server:

1. Copy the following files from the Meridian Enterprise Server computer to same location on the Windows file server:

   C:\Program Files\BC-Meridian\Enterprise Server\WinFSService.exe
   C:\Program Files\BC-Meridian\Enterprise Server\WinFSService.exe.config

2. Open a Command Prompt window in the folder where you copied the files.

3. Install the service assembly by executing the following command line:

   C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Installutil.exe WinFSService.exe

4. On 64-bit computers, also run the following command line:

   C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\Installutil.exe WinFSService.exe

5. Assign an account with permissions to the monitored folders and to the Meridian Enterprise Server destination folders to the Log On option of the service properties in Control Panel.

   Note:

   After installation, the service is not started automatically by default. To do so, change its Startup type in the Services control panel from Manual to Automatic and manually start the service, if necessary. If the service will not be used for an extended period, we recommend that you set it to Disabled.

6. Continue by configuring the service as described in Configure the Accruent File Publishing Service.
