Hi Joe! Just had to do this same thing myself. There's another gotcha if you install SLM. SLM actually has two documentation trees - User and Config - and the Help File Path URL knows about neither one of them. I wound up putting the User files where Help File Path thinks the docs ought to be, since I expect to be the only person who uses the configuration stuff.
Most of the time language variations are handled with a system of links or shortcuts. For example "en" is more or less identical to what you would find under "C," or "en_US," if those directories were there. My hunch is that the people who wrote helpinstall.sh didn't include the soft links.... Doug ___ Doug Blair Remedy Skilled Professional doug<at>blairing<dot>com +1-224-558-5462 ......

Though the URL expects that additional 'en' folder, the actual help files are installed on the root of the Application Help Folder, without creating a language subfolder 'en'. So the URL that is built is in the format: >http://<IIS_ServerName>:80/<ARServerName>/<ApplicationName/en/<ApplicationHelpFiles> >The files get installed on >\Inetpub\wwwroot\<ApplicationName>\<ApplicationHelpFiles> >whereas it ought to be in >\Inetpub\wwwroot\<ApplicationName>\en\<ApplicationHelpFiles> > >I just thought I'd tip you guys that you might require to do these changes I >had to do to get these help files working at this new engagement that I am at. > >Cheers > >Joe _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org ARSlist:"Where the Answers Are"
