[LON-CAPA-admin] No math rendering from access machines?

Hi Todd,

Looks like this is being caused because the jsMath fonts failed to
install.

Viewing 

http://lc2.mines.edu/res/adm/pages/math_example.tex?inhibitmenu=yes&texengine=jsMath

Looking at the javascript console shows 

Error: uncaught exception: jsMath can't load the file
'http://lc2.mines.edu/adm/jsMath/fonts/cm-fonts/alpha/def.js'
Error status: 404


The fonts are supposed to be installed 
during the install bu running the file

loncapa-2.4.1/loncom/html/adm/jsMath/commands 
with an argument of /home/httpd/html/adm/jsMath

Which should unzip the file
loncapa-2.4.1/loncom/html/adm/jsMath/jsMath-fonts-1.3.zip

into 
/home/httpd/html/adm/jsMath


Can you check the output of running UPDATE and see if any errors got
thrown shorting the install out in some way?

Can you give me an url that this is failing on?  My test resources
seem to be rendering fine in tth mode on lc2.mines.edu.
