You can do this in several ways. The most reliable and correct way would be to create a new storage driver for Mayan that support CIFS.
On the other hand, the easiest way would be to mount the external folder as Mayan's /media folder by modifying the file /etc/fstab so that it is mounted on every boot. Reference: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently To use an external Postgres database refer to Django's instructions here: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/ref/settings/#databases In short you need to add something like this to your Mayan's settings/local.py file: DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.postgresql', 'NAME': 'mydatabase', 'USER': 'mydatabaseuser', 'PASSWORD': 'mypassword', 'HOST': '127.0.0.1', 'PORT': '5432', }} On Friday, March 24, 2017 at 4:11:07 PM UTC-4, C V wrote: > > I have installed mayan-edms in a virtual machine with ubuntu 16.04 server, I > would like to connect the document_storage folder and the database > postgresql to a Windows folder via cifs so all documents and the database > are saved in the Windows folder.
