I downloaded com47swiki12-win.exe and followed these directions from
http://minnow.cc.gatech.edu/swiki/10:

1. Download the file you prefer (just one!)
2. Extract it to the directory (a.k.a. folder) of your choice (for
example, C:\Program Files\ComSwiki\)
3. Drag-n-drop the squeak.image file onto the squeak.exe (or just
double-click squeak.exe)
4. Wait until the server starts (the start server button will change its
label to stop server)
5. Go to http://localhost/admin/help#getStarted to read-up on setting up
the site
6. When prompted for username:password, use admin as user and password
as password (You should change this as soon as possible to avoid
security problems)
7. Set up the site to your liking
8. Once the server is set up to your liking, stop the server (by
pressing the stop server button) and quit the server application (by
pressing Alt-F4 or by clicking "x" in the top right corner of the
window).

Steps 1-4 go fine. When I try to get to the help page in step 5, I get
the message from my browser saying the page doesn't exist. Therefore, I
cannot setup the swiki. I tried installing the software on Windows 2000
(both Server and Professional gave the same results) and Windows NT 4.0
Workstation. I can connect to http://localhost. That URL gives me the
"Swikis on this Site" page. Am I missing something here?

Thank you.
