loading java applet failed

[Marcellinus]

Hello,

I have a big problem since I have to do a prestation tomorrow and I can't get things working because I'm a site devolper and there is no server admin available.................)-:

I build a site in a sub-dir of a working site, tested it and it works fine. Now there comes in a URL pointing to an new IIS-website on the same server. I copy my work into the rooth folder of the new site and my java-applet won't start.
I checked the cf-server under mappings and saw a logical mapping /CFIDE pointing to D:/websites/CFIDE.
When I check the source of the browser page I find at the point where the applet comes in: <param name="archive" value="/CFIDE/classes/cfapplets.jar"> and similar /CFIDE/-mappings for javascript source earlier in the page.
These thing look OK to me but what do I know ................ There is no other CF-server setting I can relate to the problem, I checked if I could find different settings on the IIS-server for this site and the site where things do work but couldn. find any
I looked for solutions on the web without luck.........
And now I am stucked!

Can someone PLEASE help me?
(Als you have most likely found out by now I don't know much of server-stuff so be gentle on me with 'supposed knowledge')

Marcel,

In IIS for the site that is not loading the applet, create a virtual directory called CFIDE and point it to the physical location on the server where the CFIDE folder is.

Try that.

If that doesnt do it, create a folder on the site called CFIDE and copy the files to that folder. Reset IIS and/or Cf and see if it works

Abinidi,

Thank you so much.
A virtual directory and a reset of CF-server did the job.

you guarded me from a sleeples night.
