Did this and restarted the server with:
./startserver -webpage /usr/local/dx/java/htmlpages/Status.html -dxroot
/usr/local/dx -debug -foreground
No change in status when I try to execute something..

This was always writable, but no files are showing up here.
As I understand it, JavaDX provides an interface to the DX engine which
generates GIFs that are presented via the applet as pseudo-animations.
There are no new images being generated in either the 'output' directory nor
the 'htmlpages' directory. Neither are there are error messages from the
server indicating that there is a problem with
saving them to a directory.
Any other suggestions?
