    Hi!

    I had created a couple of collections under my Root Collection.  All under the default repository DMX for my portal id 0.  Within these collections, I had done some mass imports of existing folder structures.

    But now, for security reasons and also to enable full text searching, according to the documentation, It is recommended that I store my repository oustide  the webroot.  Note, I will be unchecking the option to rename file extensions to .resources to accomodate the full text search.

    So, I created a directory DMX outside of my webroot...but how do I move all of my existing collections to this directory outside of the webroot?  Is it too late to do this?

    Thanks,

    Jen

    Jen,
    No it is not too late. You can move at any time provided you move ALL the content and you tell DMX where the new repository is located. What you must keep in mind is that the permissions need to be set correctly. The ASP.NET worker process identity needs access to this new location and all of it's contents. In IIS 5 that is the ASPNET account and in IIS 6 it is the NETWORK SERVICE account of your web server.
