1.2 Requirements, files and folders

Before installing, ensure the user that is installing has modify access to the following folders and files in the Sitecore web root:

  • Sitecore 8.x
  • \App_Config\include
  • \App_Data\
  • \bin\
  • \sitecore\shell\client
  • \Sitecore modules\shell\

1.3 Requirements

OBS.

If your DC is older than 4.7.0 (not including 4.7.0) you need to stop the installation, and get in touch with your contact person at Digizuite.

You also need to verify the following before running the module:

  • Digizuite™ DAM for Sitecore (DFS) stores a cached version of all image assets locally. In order to do this, DFS needs  write access to the \App_Data\ folder. Sitecore installations have write access to this folder by default.
  • The configuration file named Sitecore.ContentSearch.Lucene.DefaultIndexConfiguration.config located in Sitecore Website folder \App_Config\include needs to be enabled. You can verify that it is enabled by looking at the file's extension. If it is .example or .disabled. it is disabled, and therefore needs to be enabled. This is done by simply deleting the .example or .disabled. from the file. This has to be done, even though the Sitecore installation running Solr as default search engine
