DocuWare on-premises. 7.8–7.14.

What to check

A Java startup timeout can occur when Fulltext cannot reach its OpenJDK installation. The vendor's checks focus on service-account permissions and the javaPath value, rather than simply extending a timeout.

Practical steps

  • Check that the Fulltext service account can read and write the installation location required by the source.
  • Back up DWSolrService.exe.settings and compare javaPath with the actual bundled OpenJDK directory.
  • Have the administrator correct an invalid path or missing access and restart the Fulltext service.

Confirm the result

Confirm the service starts, inspect its new log entries and test a known full-text search. Do not substitute an arbitrary Java installation without checking the DocuWare release requirements.
