Sample WebDocs iSeries Document Pointer Import Program

From Support

The following web link contains a library named RJSIMGSM01. The library code can be used to import document pointers into the WebDocs iSeries Tables: DOCS00 and DOCVER00. These two tables contain the document indexes and version info for WebDocs.

• Note: This sample assumes that your image TIF, PDF or other documents already exist on the IFS or on a NAS/SAN server that the IFS can see via NFS. You may need to install Windows Services for Unix if you SAN is accessed or front ended by a Windows Server. Most linux NFS Servers are also supported. Standard Windows Netbios via QNTC/NetServer does not work correctly because of security restictions in the OS/400 iSeries operating system. However NFS is a perfect way to access documents on a NAS/SAN device.

Image files must also have file extensions on them. Example: If your images are stored using Vanguard or Content Manager, the file names may look like this: 0A123456. This file should be named: 0A123456.TIF.

Instructions for using the program:

• Download and install the library to you iSeries system. Programs are compiled, but the source is in file: SOURCE in RJSIMGSM01.

IFOLDER2 - Folder level 2  Not Required unless you have a 2 level folder.
IFOLDER3 - Folder level 3  Not Required unless you have a 3 level folder.
IFOLDER4 - Folder level 4  Not Required unless you have a 4 level folder.
IFOLDER5 - Folder level 5  Not Required unless you have a 5 level folder.

No records are deleted from the table during processed. They are only marked as processed 
once imported to DOCS00/DOCVER00

• Run the document pointer import program:

ADDLIBLE RJSIMAGE
ADDLIBLE RJSIMGSM01
CALL DOCIMP02R   

• Use the following URL to log into the WebDocs software to see if you can access your imported documents:

http://1.1.1.1:8888/imageserver/doc100r?action=init

• Note: Where we used 1.1.1.1, use your iSeries IP address. We are also having you use TCP/IP port 8888 instead of port 80. Your web server may be configured differently so use the IP address and Port where WebDocs is configured.
