I have just installed the latest alpha release, but when I try to connect to the application from the Windows Start menu, e.g. Start -> All Programs -> Dimdim -> Schedule Dimdim Conference, I get an http 404 File Not Found error. The URL of my site is http://conference.online-projects.net:8080. When typing the URL into the browser address field directly, I can connect to the index.php page without a problem, so I don't understand why connecting from the Start menu doesn't work.
I am using IE7. Could this possibly be a problem?
Do you have any ideas as to why I am having troubles connecting?
Thanks for your help.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
2) Does all the short cuts under the Start -> All Programs -> Dimdim doesnt work for you. i.e. Meet Now, Join Dimdim Conference etc.
3) Please send me the below files found under "$DimdimInstallationFolder\Conference Server\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\dimdim\html" i.e. C:\Program Files\Dimdim\Conference Server\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\dimdim\html at rohit@dimdim.com
I note that each of these files make reference to a dimdim directory in http://conference.online-projects.net:8080/ and an .action file in the dimdim directory. None of these files or directories exist on my server, so this is obviously why I get the File Not Found error
So the question now is why aren't the files and directories being installed on the server, or if they are being installed, where are they?
Is this a permission problem?
Thanks for your help.

Roger,
Thanks for using Dimdim.
Please let me know the below details
1) Did you used the URL http://conference.online-projects.net:8080 while installing the Dimdim Conference Server.
2) Does all the short cuts under the Start -> All Programs -> Dimdim doesnt work for you. i.e. Meet Now, Join Dimdim Conference etc.
3) Please send me the below files found under "$DimdimInstallationFolder\Conference Server\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\dimdim\html" i.e. C:\Program Files\Dimdim\Conference Server\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\dimdim\html at rohit@dimdim.com
createConf.html
joinConf.html
meetNow.html
startConf.html
Meanwhile we are trying to reproduce this problem in our lab.

Rohit
Rohit,
Thank you for your response. In answer to your questions:
Yes, I used the URL http://conference.online-projects.net:8080 as the designated URL while installing the Dimdim Conference Server.
You are right. None of the shortcuts in Start -> All Programs -> Dimdim work.
Here are the files you requested:

I note that each of these files make reference to a dimdim directory in http://conference.online-projects.net:8080/ and an .action file in the dimdim directory. None of these files or directories exist on my server, so this is obviously why I get the File Not Found error
So the question now is why aren't the files and directories being installed on the server, or if they are being installed, where are they?
Is this a permission problem?
Thanks for your help.
