Downloading the Breeze Meeting add-in from a local server

Issue

For networks that prevent users from downloading executable files from HTTP, you can edit the login.xsl file and add a hyperlink that gives users the ability to download the executable from the local server.

Solution

Before modifying any configuration files, the following steps should be taken:

  1. Open the Windows Services control panel.
  2. Stop Macromedia Breeze Application Service.
  3. Stop Flash Communication Admin Service.
  4. Stop Flash Communication Server.

Once the Breeze services are stopped, proceed to editing the file:

  1. Open the file c:\{breeze_server_name}\appserv\apps\system\login.xsl.
  2. Add the highlighted code below to your file. This code starts on line 162.

    <br/><a href="{/results/nav/link[@id='reset-password']/@path}" tar><xsl:call-template name="get-message"><xsl:with-param name="id" select="'forgot-password'"/></xsl:call-template></a><br/><a href="/common/addin/setup.exe">Download Meeting add-in</a><br/></div></div>

  3. Restart the Breeze services for the change to take effect.
