    How to customize "autodeskdmhelp:ID_Landing_Page.htm"

    I would like to customize the default page in Vault Pro 2012. This looks like a good spot for a company wiki style page where I could point to standards and work instructions. I clicked on the "Customize This Page" link and received an error "The webpage cannot be displayed".

     

    Where can I edit this?

     

    If there is something better in the 2013 release, I can hold out for whatever that is when we do the upgrade.

    Hello Gary,

     

    I believe the link you're talking about tries to open a browser to this help page describing how to customize the landing page. http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/Vault/enu/Help/Help/0097-Administ97/0127-Client_A127/0187-Customiz187. Hopefully this has the information you're looking for.

    Yes, thank you! That is what I needed.

     

    In a replicated environment, can each server have a different index.htm?

    I've performed some basic modifications, and cleared the IE history, but the vault client still loads the original index. How do I get this to refresh?

    I'm running Vault at Windows Server 2008 R2, and landing page is placed at:

     

    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Autodesk\ADMS Professional 2012\Server\Web\Services\VaultHTML\index.html"

     

    The code is: 

    <HEAD>
    <meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://srv1/pwa/tasks.aspx">
    </HEAD>

     

     So try to correct file on server using that path, and try use redirection, instead editing landing page file.

     

    Good luck!

    Have you achieved the desired?

     

    I've changed landing page url in C:\Program Files\Autodesk\ADMS Professional 2013\Server\Web\Services\VaultHTML\index.html:

     

    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
    <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    <title>Autodesk Vault</title>
    <script type="">
        function doConnectFunction() {
            //I'm fired if I'm connected to the internet
            redirURL = "http://go.tavrida.com/";
            self.setTimeout("self.location.href = redirURL;", 0000);
        }
        function doNoConnectFunction() {
            //I'm fired if I'm not connected to the internet
            redirURL = "#";
            self.setTimeout("self.location.href = redirURL;", 0000);
        }
    </script>
    <script type="">
        var i = new Image();
        i.onload = doConnectFunction;
        i.onerror = doNoConnectFunction;
        i.src='http://www.autodesk.com/images/logo.gif?d=' + escape(Date());
        //escape(Date()) necessary to override possibility of image coming from cache
    </script>
    </html>

     and also has original page in client.

     

    What I'm doing wrong?

    Try to open index.html right from it's location.

     

    If it's working as conceived, try to restart IIS: launch command prompt and type "iisreset".

    Backup index.html and replace it with next code:

    <HEAD>
    <meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=http://google.com">
    </HEAD>

     Is it works fine?

    Index with google opens itself correctly but even after iisreset the original page shows inside client.

    (btw my index posted above doesn't open even itself).
