step of the installation process and can be used to help troubleshoot problems.

successfully, ddsetup.log is stored in the root directory of the hard drive.

Installing the Document Manager controls
The Document Manager controls provide faster access to documents for Notes
client users. If the majority of your users rely on the Notes client to access
Document Manager, you should enable the use of the Document Manager controls
during library setup. Doing so, however, requires all users of that library to install
the controls.
There are two ways you can install the Document Manager controls:
v You can let the users install the control for themselves as they access a
Control-enabled library for the first time.
v Alternatively, you can install the controls in advance using functions in Library
Administration.
Automated Installation procedure for end users
If the user enters a library that was set up to use the controls, and the workstation
has not had the controls previously installed, Document Manager displays a
messaging asking whether to install the files associated with the controls. If the
user agrees to install the controls, the Document Manager banner and InstallShield
dialog box appear briefly. When the hourglass pointer reverts to an arrow, the
installation is complete.
