Subject: How do I load the Documentation CD (UniverseCD) on Windows 2000?
Answer by: "Alberto Colmenero" <san@mobilix.dk>
Doc CD Content appears garbled:
The Doc CD content is compressed - it requires Verity to decompress it. This
is why Verity is used on the Doc CD. What has happened is you've tried to
directly open up index.html off the CD into your browser, and this is not
possible todo. The CD must be accessed through the Verity Web Publisher
through:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/home/home.htm
This is the startup address that is launched when you click on "Launch CD."
Windows 2000 and Doc CD:
Pre-July 2000 Documentation CDs do not work on Windows 2000 out of the box.
They will cause "Search.exe" to crash when run under Win2k.
There is a fix that sometimes works for these CDs at:
http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/620/ioscd.html.
This fix MUST be done BEFORE you install the CD. If the
CD has already been installed, then uninstall it, delete c:\cisco,
make this registry change, then re-install the Doc CD.(both the Browser
Software Installer and The Documentation CD
(I have tried this on My labtop which is running windows 2000 and it worked
fine but I had to delete c:\Cisco first and Lunch the Browers software
Installer CD (1) first then the Document CD(2) (my version of CD was Nov
1999)
(I have already sent this one to you did you delete c:\Cisco and lunch both
CDs)
Other fixs are shown
The Doc CD starts up to about:blank
There are two alternate fixes for this:
1. After launching the Doc CD, put in http://127.0.0.1:8080/home/home.htm
for the address, and then add it to your favorites.
-
or
-
2. This is a 4-step fix:
A. Ensure that search.exe is not running.
B. Edit the installed search.ini (c:\CISCO\search.ini).
C. Change the line 'Browser=c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe'
to 'Browser=msie'
D. Launch the CD.
Nothing happens when I click Launch CD
The usual cause for this is that you've installed a post-July 2000
Documentation CD over the top of a previous Doc CD.
The fix for this is to:
1. Uninstall the Doc CD from the control panel->add/remove programs.
2. Delete c:\cisco
3. Reinstall the Doc CD.
Finally to reorder a CD
The Cisco Documentation CD is also available online at:
