Receiver Failure to read Configuration File

If the Receiver failed to read the configuration file, the following error message is
displayed:
Unable to update the Receiver Config file java.io.IOException: A file
or directory in the path name does not exist.
This error occurs when the WebSphere Partner Gateway Receiver is starting and it
does not have a connection to the database and it is attempting to read the
configuration information from the BCGReceiverConfiguration.xml file. The
BCGReceiverConfiguration.xml file is located in a folder specified by the attribute
bcg.receiver.configpath on the System Administration Page of the console.
Ensure that the path specified by bcg.receiver.configpath is correct.

Configuring Users to receiving Alerts Notification

If the SMTP configuration has not been provided in the System Administration
page of the WebSphere Partner Gateway console, the configured alerts are not sent
to the Users because document manager fails to locate the necessary SMTP
configuration.
To configure the alerts, update the values of the following two attributes:
v On the System Administration > DocMgr Administration > Alert Engine page,
v On the System Administration > DocMgr Administration > Delivery Manager
