DocuShare Drive Version 1.5
INSTALLATION
You must be an administrator on the computer to install and remove DocuShare Drive. Creating a system restore point prior to running the installer is recommended. To run the installer, use DSDriveSetup.exe on a 32-bit machine, or DSDriveSetup64.exe on a 64-bit machine. The setup program ensures that the installer runs with an appropriately elevated administrator privilege.
The setup program is generated using the Microsoft IExpress self-extract technology. It supports the setup switches described in the article from below.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd346761.aspx
To perform the installation silently, use the /Q switch.
If you want to pre-select a DocuShare server for auto-mapping during the installation, you need to override the default MSI launch command. To do so, use the /C switch. Here is an example.
DSDriveSetup /C:"msiexec /i DSDrive.msi /lv DSDriveInstall.log DSURL=http://www.yourbusiness.com/docushare MAPFIRSTSERVER=1"
The above command pre-selects a DocuShare at http://www.yourbusiness.com/docushare for automatic mapping at the end of the installation process.
If you just want to extract the MSI file, use the /T switch (followed by specification of a destination directory).
If you have customized the MSI and must run the MSI directly, start a command prompt with administrator privileges, CD to the directory of DSDrive.msi, and issue the command, msiexec /i DSDrive.msi. If the installation is not run with an elevated privilege, the installer will not be able to correctly update your machine's netwok configuration. The installation itself may complete. But, the runtime will likely malfunction. The setup program now supports installer customization and setup program creation in one step. Refer to FAQ for instructions.
If you are installing DocuShare Drive on a machine with DocuShare Client installed, you must disconnect all servers prior to running the installation. Also, when running the DocuShare Drive installer, make sure that the 'DocuShare Client update' feature is selected in the Custom Setup screen.
The installation requires pre-installation of Microsoft Visual Studio C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable . DSDriveSetup does not include it. So, you must install it separately. If the target machine is 64-bit, make sure that both 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) editions of the redistributable are installed. If you have access to the DocuShare Client 6.5.x setup program, you can use that to download and install the right prerequisite library. As soon as the library finishes installing, quit the setup program, and come back to DSDriveSetup. The prerequisite is already met if the target machine has the DocuShare Client installed. The redistributables are available from these Microsoft sites.

WHAT'S NEW
- Web checkout. DocuShare Drive integrates with Microsoft Internet Explorer. A file checked out in IE retains connection with the DocuShare server. Changes you make are automatically saved back to the file on the server.
- Improved bulk upload. DocuShare Drive refreshes the file listing faster in Windows Explorer, thus, improving the overall upload speed. Drive also adds the High-Speed Copy menu command. It uploads up to four files simultaneously to speed up the upload.
Fixed issues in this build:
-System or security fixes
· A fast switching user may see DS drives of another.
· A script can execute an arbitrary command via DSClient RunCommand API.
· A script can cause a crash by passing an extremely long string-typed parameter the DSClient automation interface.
-NTLM fixes
· DSDrive may not connect to IIS that joins a non-default domain.
· NTLM logon dialog appears unexpectedly when it should not. NTLM should use default user credentials.
· A server switching from NTLM to Basic authentication causes BSOD (due to a header release bug introduced in 1.5.0 b13 and 1.0.3 b52).
· An empty NTLM password causes BSOD.
-SSL fixes
· A server that handshakes with an non-rooted certificate is refused. This blocks the establishing of a connection with a secure server that has just been mapped.
· DSDrive always defaults to SSL3 and does not handshake with a TLS server. This is a security problem.
· 1.5 can negotiate the SSL version. These are the negotiation paths:
o SSL3-->TLS1.0
o TLS1.2-->TLS1.1-->TLS1.0-->SSL3
-Network-related fixes
Cannot recover from a 401 unauthorized error caused by an empty-valued AmberUser HTTP cookie.
-Document check out & check in fixes
· An XLS file is checked in twice.
· A change made to a DOCX created by File Save As is lost. Closing MS Word does not trigger version check-in.
· Changes (e.g., comments) made to a PDF are lost. Safe Save of Acrobat works differently from that of MS Office.
· A PDF may not open due to a malformed content range header generated by some servers. These servers must use CR LF to terminate a header field.
· The setting, Defer the check-in until the app window closes, does not stick. It is lost if the system is restarted.
· A new version is not checked in and is lost if the Defer the check-in option is disabled.
· If File Save fails, an attempt to do File Save again does not bring up check-in dialog.
· The New Version check-in wizard runs when a user checks out an XLS file and closes Excel. Since no edits were made, no check-in should happen.
· The wrong octet content type is assigned to a file saved from MS Outlook. The file name has a .TMP extension.
· A Visual Studio project may not build if it's placed on a DS mount even with the writable volume option enabled.
· Visual Studio loses a source file if it's edited. This is caused by driver’s adoption of sequential upload for VS.
· HTML form ‘AddFile’ loses a source IItemObj object supplied by a DS Check-in API application.
· Ctrl-V does not work in an edit control in the check-in wizard.
-File management tasks fixes
· The shell extension does not stop write operations even if the server is in read-only maintenance mode.
· 'Check in documents' stores only one of multiple files selected for check-in.
· A search result for a file in an orphan collection does not work. The file does not open when it's double-clicked in the search folder.
· 'author' does not show the saved value in the DS properties tab of Windows Explorer.
· The DS property data types of Long and BigDecimal are not supported. The values are not shown, and cannot be edited.
· Multi-valued menu properties cannot be set.
· Explorer is prevented from deleting the file after the file upload is canceled or fails due to an error.
· The properties dialog does not enforce the maximum-length of String-typed properties
· XCOPY uses buffered upload. Uploaded files remain locked.
· A network timeout causes BSOD. Driver’s WSK socket recv fails to cancel the IRP.
· A file from a zip does not copy to a DS drive in Windows Explorer on Windows 8.1.
· DocuShare Search and Go to URL do not work in pr
