Connecting to STP Documents

Connecting to LEXolution.DMS

All documents created by Lexolution are stored in LEXolution.DMS.
Only system templates are stored in the document directory.

Connecting to LEXolution.DMS is optional.
To use the connection to LEXolution.DMS, LEXolution.DMS must be installed.
The installation and configuration of LEXolution.DMS is not part of this installation guide.

If LEXolution.DMS is already in use, please contact Support@stp.one.

Configure connection to LEXolution.DMS
Here's how you can configure the connection to LEXolution.DMS. Please follow these steps:

Step 1
Open the configuration file for the Lexolution server with administrator rights.
If you installed the Lexolution server in the default installation directory, the configuration file STP.Kms.Server.exe.config is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\STP AG\LEXolution.KMS-Server\.

Under DmsType, specify that LEXolution.DMS should be used instead of Filesystem.
For LEXolution.DMS up to version 6.5, enter the following value:

<add key="DmsType" value="LEXolutionDMS"></add>

For LEXolution.DMS version 7 and above, enter the following value:

<add key="DmsType" value="LEXolutionDMS7"></add>

Starting with Lexolution version 6.1.132 / 6.1.1003 and LEXolution.DMS 7.5.112, the full functionality of the DMS controls is also available in the DMS integration in Lexolution.
If you are using LEXolution.DMS version 7.5.112 or later, we strongly recommend using the new interface for Lexolution 9.3.66.
As of LEXolution.DMS version 7.6.323, KMS can no longer be used via the DMS7 interface, as DMS Controls 7.0 are no longer compatible with LEXolution.DMS 7.6.323.

For LEXolution.DMS version 7.5.112 and above, enter the following value:

<add key="DmsType" value="LEXolutionDMS73"></add>.

Under LexDmsCommunicationFolder, specify where the communication path is stored

 <add key="LexDmsCommunicationFolder" value="\\<Servername>\<CommunicationPath>"></add>

Step 2
Save your changes and close the configuration file.
Stop the STP Lexolution Server service and restart it. >> The updated settings have been applied.
The STP Lexolution Server service is running. The Lexolution server is installed and configured.

After the connection to LEXolution.DMS has been configured, the LEXolution.DMS migration tool must be run.
The configuration and description of the LEXolution.DMS migration tool is not part of this installation guide and can only be performed by an STP Informationstechnologie GmbH employee.

Once the LEXolution.DMS migration tool has been run, the connection should not be reverted, as this can lead to data inconsistencies.
