what errors? Is it from the same machine as with the vncviewer?

If it's trough a firewall, the webviewer needs both 5800 and 5900 range
portnumbers (add the display number for the real port)

You did not specify the error message. For your debuggin: compare this html
output with the file <vnc_install>/classes/index.vnc. Then you can see what
happens. The file vncviwer.jar needs to be in the same directory. All files
in there must be readable by the world.
