I have just installed FMS2. I bring up the management console, click view applications and then I click on new instance so that I can define my application, but it doesn't do anything. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    You normally create a subdirectory for every new application you develop since you are going to write some server-sided action-script (a file called main.asc).

    After that you don't have to create any subdirs anymore. FMS will create subdirs for each instance you if you are going to record streams, but you might have to create a "streams" subdir. It all depends a bit on the security-settings (user account, write permissions etc) in the 'applications' directory of your FMS.

    I don't use the FMS2 management console, because we are using Influxis so we are using their console, but to have an instance of an application you have to create an application first to make an instance of. Did you create an application?

    No, that is what I was trying to do. I guess I misunderstood the documentation. So if you don't mind, how do I define a new application? Thanks.

    Hey, I figured it out. I had to create a subdirectory in the application directory named after my application. But I didn't see that anywhere in the documentation.

    Thanks for your help
