Using the Editor

  1. Install the DocLink database.
  2. Install the DocLink Application Components.
  3. If you want to change the password for the default SQL login, open the SQL Server Enterprise Manager and change the password for the doclink20 user.
    1. Open the Security folder and select Logins.
    2. Right-click on the doclink20 user and select Properties.
    3. Enter the new Password.
  4. Right-click and run the DBPwdTool.exe, as Administrator, on the DocLink application server. The default location is %Program Files (x86)%\Altec\doc-link3x.
  5. Make the necessary changes to the connection string.  If you are simply changing the password for the default SQL login, change the password in the connection string to match the password created for the doclink20 user.
  6. Click Test.... You should get a message in the status bar that the DocLink database was found.
  7. Click OK to exit the editor and update the database setting.
  8. Restart all DocLink services.

    If any changes are made to the doclink20 SQL account you must restart all DocLink Services.

    The default password for the doclink20 SQL user is DL499ezy.

    SQL Server Express Edition is NOT supported with DocLink.

If you connect to multiple databases from the same DocLink application server, the connection string must be compatible with each database. This can be accomplished by ensuring that the same UserID and Password is utilized in each of the databases.
