Hey folks,
Trying to learn DF Script and am having problems just getting started. I've decided to try the scripting tutorials that come with the software (C:\Program Files\Digital Fusion\Help\Script
Help\index.html), unfortunately I have been rather unsuccessful in getting a DF connection to even begin scripting! According to the tutorial, I follow the basic instructions:
Step1:
C:\Fusion\Script>dfscript -i

>
Step2:
df = DF("localhost")
Step 3:
> print(df)
What I am supposed to get is a connection like the userdata one below:
> df = DF("localhost")
> print(df)
userdata: 0043C6B0
>
What I *ACTUALLY* get is :
> df=DF("localhost")
> print(df)
nil
I can't seem to obtain a connection. I have tried adding Digital Fusion to my enviromental variables but that doesn't seem to help either. Can anyone give me some ideas on ways of troubleshooting this? Hopefully it's not something simple I am overlooking. Thanks in advance for reading this!
