Enable client tools in webconsole?

Does anyone know how to enable client tools in the webconsole? So far I've tried adding the following parameter to webconsole.properties file.

com.smarts.clientToolsInApplet=true

Then I restarted the webserver. I'm still not seeing client tools in the webconsole though.

    Did you specify com.smarts.webconsole.sitemod property? If you haven't then webconsole will look for the client tools in BROWSER_HOME/actions/client directory, and won't find any scripts .

    I've tried putting my script file in c:\program files\internet explorer\actions\client  but it's still not finding it. I've also used the com.smarts.webconsole.sitemod parameter but that didn't work either. I must missing something somewhere. After changing the webconsole.properties file I'm restarting the SMARTS Servlet Engine service. Is there anything else I need to restart to make this work?

    ok , I did a hands-on myself. And got stuck in similar situation.

    Probably its the way i installed global console, I realized that it did'nt pick up the server setting.

    For eg:

    in webconsole.properties

    i saw smarts.remote.broker= :426

    It did'nt pick up localhost (or servername) , just helps in auto populating the attach manager dialogue box with broker name.

    in globalConsoleApp.jnlp

    I found something similar on the first line

    < jnlp spec="1.0+" codebase=http://:8080 href="webconsole/globalConsoleApp.jnlp" >

    until i changed the codebase to http://localhost:8080 whatever properties i entered through webconsole.properties did'nt reflect.

    And i was not able to see client tool option as this file later loads up webconsole.properties.

    See if you have same problem and let me know.

    Regards,

    Thanks for looking into this for me. I checked my webconsole.properties and globalConsoleApp.jnlp and both have what they should -

    After re-reading through the documentation I learned that the default dir for the client tools in Windows is \desktop\actions\client

    I created actions\client folder on my desktop and stuck my .cmd file in there and now it works.
