today i installation new the DSS Lite on a new usb stick.
the same problem! there is no way!
i tested on different usb disk and usb stick, on different host plattforms: desktop pc, laptops and server hardware IBM and HP.
also tested with diffent clients like XP, linux and windows 2000 and different browsers IE, mozilla and firefox.
on the other hand the software is running, reading this forum there are enough other problems.
i think it is better to test a other software before i lose more time again.
I had this problem too.. and I had a DSS lite running since FEB already, and when I tried to make a second machine with DSS lite, it didn't work.
Here's what my problem was = I tried to use DSS Lite on a P3.
I took the DOM I was using and put it in a working machine that was a e4500, came right up and everything worked perfectly.
So I hunted up a different server here, one with a dual core Xeon (which is P4 type era if you will) and that came up first time.
Oddly enough, the machine I purchased back in FEB was also a dual core xeon.
The requirements too say P4... so I'm not sure what you're using, but the P3 was my problem.
