I'm trying to set up the Mongoose server according to the directions
here but I'm having some trouble. The instructions posted do not match what I'm encountering.
Here are the steps I took in trying to install the server - I left no step out here. What you read is what I did. This is using Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
1. Downloaded mongoose-2.11.exe from the Mongoose website
2. Located downloaded file, right clicked, selected "Run as administrator"
3. A small "m" icon appeared in the taskbar tray
4. Created folder called www located at c:\www
5. Right-clicked Mongoose icon in taskbar tray and selected "Edit Config File" (Mongoose wasn't listed in All Programs as was stated in online manual)
6. In config file, I found a line # document_root .
7. I deleted the hash mark replaced the period with c:\www
8. I rebooted the computer
9. Upon rebooting, the small "m" icon was gone from the taskbar tray
10. I went to http://localhost and got the standard "Unable to connect" error message
11. I create a small index.html file and place it in the same directory and tried again but got same error (not sure if this would have worked anyway)
11. I opened msconfig and looked under Services but Mongoose was not listed
12. I initiated the program again from the downloaded .exe file
13. The small "m" appeared again in the taskbar tray
14. I tried opening localhost again but got the same results
Here's what I see when I right-click the "m" icon in the taskbar tray:

Here's the contents of the config file before I made any changes:

mongoose-2.11.exe is currently listed as an exception in my Firewall (Windows Firewall).
I've already ponied up the $10 to give this a fair shot so I'd like to be able to try it. I've already installed the channel into my lineup on the Roku box. Any help would be appreciated.
