OmniBack II 3.1 WebReporting

[Dan Ryan]

I'm trying to implement OB2 WebReporting.
When I open file:/opt/omni/java/bin/webreporting.html
in Netscape Gavigator Gold 3.1, I get the following error:
applet can't start class webreporting not found.

According to OB2 doc the /opt/omni/java files have to be located to the Web Server. Is this the server I launch the netscape client on?

Hi,

You need to copy all the files in /opt/omni/java/bin/ to your DocumentRoot which is /usr/local/apache/htdocs if you have installed the apache web server. You will be able to access http://your.web.server/webreporting.html from any web browser on a remote client.

In your case, you are trying to launch your browser directly with webreporting.html locally on the web server. If you do so, you must remember to set your PATH to include /opt/omni/java/bin so that your browser knows where to search for the class (cab) file. Otherwise, you may wish to run the browser directly from the directory /opt/omni/java/bin since the current directory (.) is by default in your PATH.

Regards.

I also found that I had to use the latest browser to stop various problems from occuring

Steve,
Thank you for your help. I'm able to access the webreporting.html based on the info you've supplied.
