The DocuShare Welcome screen displays.

4. When the installer completes the DocuShare installation, click Finish to close the installer.

5. Reboot the system. DocuShare initial startup automatically updates the search indexes; allow ﬁve minutes before accessing the site via a browser.

Connect to your DocuShare server

At the completion of the DocuShare installation, try connecting to your new DocuShare server using a web browser. The default URL is:

http://<localhost>:8080/docushare

For users connecting to DocuShare from their systems, the URL is:

http://<server hostname>:8080/docushare

Note: 8080 is the default port for the Tomcat web servlet. If another

application is using 8080, DocuShare will check and assign another port number to its URL.

If the installation was successful, you should be viewing the default home page of your new DocuShare server. The home page has links to many useful features and to several pre-installed collections. User and Administrator tutorials are available via the Help link.
