I got a copy of the DEV package. I was told to try it out and see if it does
what I need before we buy the full blown thing. I have been beating my head
against the wall all day trying to get this thing to work. We have installed it
every way from sunday and still, we try to connect to the server that we can
SEE is running via ps -e.. no luck.

We go to the fms2_console.swf (I think that is the name...) and we type in
the localhost as the server name (since we simply installed it into the httpd
directory and took the defaults)

It asked to install into /opt/macromedia... we let it

It asked for the ports, we put those in, not much of a big thing there.

It asked for nobody for a name and group, we said okay.
It asked to be run as a Daemon.. we said sure.

It asked for 2 weeks paid vacation, we told it to hit the road...
not really, just seeing if you were paying attention.
We approved the vacation.

We let it finish the install (after we gave it a username and a password.

We then loaded fms2_console and it came to a very nice blue background login
screen. We typed in :

localhost
username
password

No matter what we do, it refuses to log in/connect. All it does is kick us
back to the same login prompt.

The firewall ports are open

The mozilla patch is installed (rpm)

We simply cannot figure out what in the world we are doing wrong here. We
called Adobe, they said get the trial version as it has a 30-day key. We tried
downloading that.. it was the dev version.

We are not in front of the server. We are trying to access it via a web
screen. Perhaps that is the issue?

Please, any help. We co-locate servers (5 of them) so we want to test this
remotely before we lock in 4500 bucks.

I figured out what is going on. In the install, the install is not writing
anything to the XML files...i.e. admin is not defined in the xml files.

So, need to figure out WHY as I am installing as "su"

Any ideas on why?

Thanks!

Hello, I am having a huge problem and customer service will not write me back.
I even added them to my address book. E-mail them all the time. Yeah.
Anyways, I like to look on the news on the net. Well, in order to look at
the week in pictures I must have micromedia flash player. It installs itself
for free , with a Yahoo tool bar if you don't unchekc the box. Well it is
supposed to but everytime I try to install it , it says that I must access the
option from a computer administrators account. I am the computer admin. I
went bakc and unclicked it and reclicked it shut the computer down just to make
sure and still it says I'm not. Also, I have checked all of my firewalls,even
let the pop -ups in to download it. What is going on? Does anyone know why it
seems to think that I am not the administrator on my own computer. It is a
laptop, if that makes any difference but there are not other users on it and I
have turned the guest account off. Just in case.
