Help needed in getting the Java viewer to work

kirkzeus · Post by **kirkzeus** » 2006-02-07 06:25

Hi all

I have sucessfully got UltraVNC (v1.0.1) to work using the viewer supplied, but when I try to access the VNC server using my web browser I can't access the server.

My client is a Windows 98SE pc running Internet Explorer v5.5 with Java installed (I have previously tried another VNC software called TightVNC and using their server I was able to connect using my web browser - TightVNC has now been uninstalled). The server is a Windows XP SP2 pc. The client and server are connected via a LAN.

The ip address of the server is 192.168.0.1. I put into the web browser the address htttp://192.168.0.1:5800/ I then get displayed in the top left hand corner of the browser's window a small square and then after about 60 seconds all I get is a blank window displayed - i.e. it failed to connect to the server - no error mesage though.

Any ideas appreciated as I'm determined to use UltraVNC as my VNC server/viewer of choice.

Many thanks

Are you sure java is properly installed ?
Have you tried with another browser ?

Is Httpconnect selected in the Admin properties on the server ?

Thanks for the information.

I reinstalled Java and it works now. I'm a little confused though on why it previously worked fine with TightVNC but not with UltraVNC.

Thanks again.

kirkzeus,

Tight VNC, Real VNC or any other vny flavor are similiar but are not quite the same maybe right vnc has a different java requirement..
