Getting RoboEngine to Talk to IIS

Anyone using RoboEngine? If so, thanks in advance for any advice you
can give.

I've got RoboEngine installed on my Windows 2000 Professional machine.
I know this is not as stable as other OSs, but I need to use this
machine as a test environment. I have SP 4 installed also.

Anyway, I've got IIS installed and it seems to be running fine. I
also installed RoboEngine without fanfare. And I created a sample
project and "published" it to my default web space (which is
IIS\<name>\Default Web Site). I can bring the sample up in my browser
by entering http://name, but it doesn't include the natural language
search when I bring it up.

Here's what's happening on the RoboEngine side. I open my Default Web
Site engine. It shows as C:\Program
Files\RoboEngine\Servers\1\projects\publications
release\publications_release.ppf (The latter names reflect the
name of my sample.) I've tried deleting and adding the engine back.
And I've recompiled and published numerous times. When I click on
View Project, I get this:
http://localhost/RoboAPI.asp?project=Publications%20Release and "The
Page Cannot Be Found." I get the same deal when I try to launch from
the webserver when I'm in RoboHelp.

It seems to me that RoboEngine and IIS are not talking properly. Can
anyone tell me what I need to look at to get the project working with
natural language search?

Thanks again,

If no-one here can help, you may want to try the RoboHelp forums at:

There's an area specifically for RoboEngine queries.
