I've got VMWare Server 2 up and running, created a few VMs, been playing around with it. I'm trying VMWare out to see if I'd like to switch from Microsoft Virtual Server 2005. One thing I really liked about Virtual Server 2005 is the ability to use my virtual machine in an ActiveX control (I know...I know...I like being able to tab between VMs while I'm already IN the admin site). I've downloaded the CAB file, extracted the files, installed the plugin and registered the DLL as instructed in this KB article:
I've input my config in the sample IE HTML and when I open the HTML file I get a black box indicating the plugin is running but there's no connection. When I enable IE debugging I get an error that says:
Line: 7 Error: 'Querystring' is undefined
In the debugger window it shows the the line is failing to instantiate a qsp object. In the HTML there is a script reference to a file called "qsp.js" that contains the object it is trying to instantiate. Hmm, where is qsp.js? It's not in the cab file and I can't find it on my hard drive(s). I downloaded and installed the vSphere SDK and can't find it in any of those directories either? I looked in the IE temp files but it's not there either.
Any ideas on where I can get this little ole JavaScript file? Is that all I need to connect to my VM...?
