PowerHouse Web Setup????

I have found that Most of the time, working through the configuration
step-by-step resolves the problem. If you're getting a 404, then I don't
know that you've even gotten to PH Web. The first thing to check is that you
can bring up a basic page on your web server. Next, bring up a basic page
with a link to the PH Web page. Check the configuration information in the
Administrator to ensure that the locations for the dictionary, the screen
files, and the HTML Templates files are correct. They should be MPE/iX
paths. Note that the PH_QKC and PH_HTML names should be MPE/iX file names
and should not have extensions.

As you work through this, watch the messages that you get. They will often
indicate exactly how far along in the process you've gotten and what the
problem is likely (but not always) to be. Turn logging on for the PHCGI,
Dispatcher, and PH Web Server using the Administrator. That will help trace
the process as well.

Hi All :)
   Ok... Dumb Question time.... I am trying to bring up PowerHouse Web Demo
on a HP e3000 s928 using IIS on a NT server and have the Dispatcher and PH
WebServer running on the HP 3k 928.... IIS is running on the NT box....  I
have created a test HTML Quick Screen via QDesign 8.29 D3...

   The page is not being found (the infamous error 404 ...) so... I checked
the NT server has proper entries in DNS for the 928 and can ping the 928....
the 928 has proper entries in the hosts.net.sys file for the NT server and
can ping the NT server by IP address...

 I am new to most of this ... so be nice to me :) but hey... if you got the
answer a little friendly abuse would, of course, not be out of line :) hehe
