Solution
1. Run Command Prompt as Administrator.
Note: Even if you are logged in as a user that is part of the Domain Administrator group.
a. Click Start | All Programs | Accessories.
b. Right-click Command Prompt and select Run as Administrator.
2. Check the DocuShare Home variable in setup_docushare.bat file
To check the DocuShare Home variable:
a. Open the setup_docushare.bat in a text editor such as Notepad.
b. Verify the DOCUSHARE_HOME setting is correct for your installation environment.
Example of the correct path without a trailing slash:
SET DOCUSHARE_HOME=C:\Xerox\Docushare
Example of an incorrect path with a trailing slash:
SET DOCUSHARE_HOME=C:\Xerox\Docushare\
Note: There should not be a \ at the end of the path.
c. Save the file.
d. If the SET DOCUSHARE_HOME setting has been modified, double-click the setup_docushare.bat file to run the batch file.
3. Check the Path variable
To check the path variable:
a. Open a command prompt window.
b. Change into the <dshome>\bin directory.
Where <dshome> is replaced with the installation path for DocuShare. The default installation path is C:\Xerox\Docushare. Depending on your installation environment the path may vary.
c. Type path and press Enter.
The path should be listed correctly (only one trailing slash)
Example of a path that is not set properly and has two trailing slashes.
C:\Xerox\DS_661\bin>path
PATH=C:\Xerox\DS_661\\lib\verity\Verity_Export_SDK\bin;C:\Xerox\DS_661\\lib\verity\Filter_SDK\bin;C:\Xerox\DS_661\\IDOLServer\DiSH;C:\Xerox\DS_661\\IDOLServer\FileSystemFetch;C:\Xerox\DS_661\\IDOLServer\IDOL;C:\Xerox\DS_661\\IDOLServer\IDOL\langfiles;C:\Xerox\DS_661\\IDOLServer\content0;C:\Xerox\DS_

Note: If the PATH still contains double slashes, then review step one of this solution again.
