General Installation Notes

This information applies to all installations of Kofax Document Exchange Server.

Supported Upgrades for JBoss Configurations (JBoss Only)

Table 1 shows direct upgrades to Kofax Document Exchange Server version 2.0. Notice that you

may need to upgrade an older version of Kofax Document Exchange Server to version 1.2 before

upgrading to version 2.0.

Important

After upgrading from 1.1 to 1.2 to 2.0, change the PostgreSQL password in

login_config.xml to the password you originally assigned in 1.1. The database administrator

password remains unchanged during the upgrade, but login_config.xml needs to be changed

from the password that is assigned for installations after 1.1. After changing the password, secure

the password by encrypting it manually as shown in the Kofax Document Exchange Server

Administrator's Guide.

Network Configuration Requirements

Destination types and Kofax Document Scan Server devices need to be on the same network as

Kofax Document Exchange Server with routable addresses from the server.

Kofax Document Exchange Server uses the IP address of the first network connection listed in the

connection order. If there are multiple network cards in the server, you may need to change the

order of network connections so that the connection used by MFPs and destination types is first.

Refer to the Microsoft Windows Server 2003 documentation for instructions on changing the

connection order.

recommended as an initial amount of free hard drive space for the database. Additional space will

records. Kofax Documentation Exchange Server can also block database requests if the free drive
