Not able to activate web server in exe

Question

Hello,
I have a problem with starting a web server. I have Vi that feeds the address of the directory to publish and after that it makes the server enable. And in the directory there are a few html files and a few jpg files. And the jpg files are attached to the html files. And then there are a few vi that appends other Vi:s front panels to images. And as the program runs the the image files in the server directory are over written (updated). So the point is to access via Web browser to the site where is some hyper links and behind he links are the photos of the few front panels. And my applications automatically updates the images.
Problem is that the server won't go on when I built and run the application. In development environment this works perfect. I tried this on a different PC also but the exe won't connect the server on either of the computers.
Need help, thanks

Hi,
The instructions points out that some modification must be made to the .ini file. But that instruction page is made with labview 8.6 and I have version 8.2. There are a few differences like:
postScriptLevel2=False   <---- My configuration file misses that part
WebServer.Enabled=True   <----  That one is a bit different
This got me thinking though. Is the configuration file written in the stone? I mean that my application programmatically sets the server directory and then enables the server. This is because the directory changes when the application is installed in to another PC. And I checked that Both the server directory and server activation function work in stand alone application as quote
Remarks
The following table lists the characteristics of this property.
Remote access disallowed
Yes
Available in Run-Time Engine and Real-Time Operating System
Yes
Permissions
Read/Write 
So do I have to separately and programmatically overwrite the configuration file?
Here is the contents of the configuration file in text

By the way I'm adding my application to a larger softwaret that some one else has done. To avoid possible confusions.
