After running doxygen it will only display the proejct name in the
browser and not the data structures or any other information

Heres my steps so far using the doxy wizard

1. Specify the working directory from which doxygen will fun: C:/xampp/
htdocs/i2c
2. Under the project tab I named the project Internet2Career and for
the source code directory i put :C:/xampp/htdocs/i2c Do i need a
destination directory?
3. Under Mode tab i cahnged the language to optimized to C or PHP
output
4. Under output tab i didnt change any settings
5. Under diagrams tab a checked use dot tool from the graph/viz
package
6. Then i ran doxygen, and clicked show in html

Under Project, the destination directory should be a 'docs' directory in c:/xampp/htdocs/i2c.

Have you installed GraphViz? This package has the tool called 'dot', which is used to render diagrams if 'HAVE_DOT' option is checked in the configuration file. Go to http://www.graphviz.org/Download..php to download a Windows install package.

For the destination directory I just need to create a folder named
"docs" in the i2c folder?

do you know if doxygen creates folders in your directory named latex,
and html? If so what are they for, are they needed?

I used the .exe file to install...I can get a page like the one in the
example, but I am stuck too as for it outputting actual documentation.
I see files are imported into the latex directory...

I think I got it to work...the easiest way is if you just download the
executable (i.e .exe for 32 bit Windows if your using Windows). It at
least gets you through to opening the GUI. Don't know if that is
helpful or not

I have had the same issues as Mike. I get the output page with the
error at the end. Doesn't seem to matter where the destination folder
is. Mine is on my desktop in a general CIS folder. "C:/Documents and
Settings/Cassella's/Desktop/CIS Files/Doxygen" and I get the exact
same error, but with my location:

Problems running dot: exit code=-1, command='dot', arguments='"C:/
Documents and Settings/Cassella's/Desktop/CIS Files/Doxygen/html/
graph_legend.dot" -Tpng -o "C:/Documents and Settings/Cassella's/
Desktop/CIS Files/Doxygen/html/graph_legend.png"'
*** Doxygen has finished

I also got the same HTML output page which has a tab for Main Page,
but not a tab for Data Structures as shown in the instructions.
I'm glad everyone is having the same problems that I have been having
for a few days, so I don't feel so incompetent.

Also, in the HTML output, I do get the page, but not with the data
structures tab at the top.

If I go to a specific file I can get documentation.
 
Like, I can't go to "xampp\htdocs\cis605" and get all the documentation, but I can go to "xampp\htdocs\cis605\model", and all the files in the "model" folder show up.

I also tried putting it in a xampp folder... and I also tried it the
way Rebecca did it, being more specific about the source, and it liked
that less. When I did that I got an additional error saying that my
input source didn't exist, as well as the exit code =-1 etc...error.

Can you get doxygen to display the data sources in the broswer?
