Windows OS

Operating System: Windows Server 2008+; Windows 7+
Nuxeo version: 5.9.5
Java: 1.7+

  1. Download Nuxeo 5.9.5 Platform Windows Installer (.exe) available from nuxeo downloads page
  2. Double click the exe file to start to install
  3. This will open an installation wizard. Nuxeo Setup Installation Wizard will ask for the installation location.  The path should be C:\Nuxeo to avoid any rights issues,limitations on paths length. This path value "C:\Nuxeo" comes as default, if not set it to C:\Nuxeo (See nuxeo_installation_location_select.jpg.) Then click next.

When using this solution it is important that Nuxeo installation path contains no space (typically NOT C:\Program Files\nuxeo). Otherwise the service wrapper will truncate the path after the space and the service will not start. It is recommended that Nuxeo is installed at the root of the volume (C:\nuxeo\ for instance).


5. After few minutes the setup would be complete. And a desktop icon will be created. You can also access it from Windows Home Menu.
All Programs -> Nuxeo ->Nuxeo)


To ensure the installation is successful, click the Nuxeo desktop icon (or from Programs menu). Nuxeo/control panel will open and click start.


The control panel will display the Nuxeo Server URL. (See nuxeo_control_panel.jpg)

Complete the Nuxeo Startup Wizard

  • Double click the "Nuxeo" shortcut located on Desktop, NuxeoCtl will be started. Click "Open in browser" button to open the following URL in web browser: http://localhost:8080/nuxeo/
  • Follow the configuration questions on the initial nuxeo startup wizard web page. Please keep the default setting when choosing Nuxeo modules (the document management module is required).


After the setup wizard has completed,
a) install nuxeo drive via the admin center:

    • Connect to the Nuxeo server with Administrator user
    • Go to `Admin Center` > `Update Center` > `Package from Nuxeo Marketplace`
    • `Download` and `Install` nuxeo-drive-1.x.x
    • Restart Nuxeo server

    • Give workspace the title: Patricia     ; and press create

Configure/Install ImageMagicK

Stop Nuxeo server.


Prepend the following path to `PATH` environment variable:

          C:\Nuxeo\3rdparty\ImageMagick
C:\Nuxeo\3rdparty\gs\bin

Close all opened command prompt windows and reopen one, input

          convert -version

command to test if ImageMagicK appears in PATH. If the following message shows:

          Version: ImageMagick 6.8.6-8 2013-08-04 
Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org
Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2013 ImageMagick Studio LLC
Features: DPC OpenMP
Delegates: bzlib djvu fftw fontconfig freetype jng jp2 jpeg lcms lzma openexr pango png ps tiff webp x xml zlib

It indicates the ImageMagicK is configured correctly.
Then we can test converting PDF to PNG file.

          cmd /C convert -density "150" "C:\SharedFiles\test.pdf" "C:\SharedFiles\test.png"

Configure Nuxeo to Point to your Patricia Database

Create a configuration file pi-nuxeo.xml containing:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE properties SYSTEM "http://java.sun.com/dtd/properties.dtd">
<properties version="1.0">
<!-- Patricia JDBC settings -->
<entry key="patricia.jdbc.driver">com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver</entry>
<entry key="patricia.jdbc.url">jdbc:sqlserver://yourMsSqlServer.company.com:1433;databaseName=patriciaDbName;integratedSecurity=false</entry>
<entry key="patricia.jdbc.username">yourUsername</entry>
<entry key="patricia.jdbc.password">yourPassword</entry>
<entry key="nuxeo.server">yourNuxeoserver.company.com:8080</entry>
<!-- installation ID was moved to Patricia DB. It should be retrieved by query select string_value from pat_configuration where configuration_id=313 -->
<!-- <entry key="patricia.installation.id">12345</entry> -->
</properties>


If using Linux or MacOS X, copy the configuration file to:


/etc/nuxeo/pi-nuxeo.xml
