indexOf is a String method. Document.path returns a File object. You need to convert the file object to a string with either decodeURI or one of the File properties like fsName, fullName, etc.

var f = app.activeDocument.path;
decodeURI(f).indexOf("Series");

// or 

var f = app.activeDocument.path.fsName;
f.indexOf("Series");
