Im using the free java applet from the downloads page. I extracted the files from the zip to the php directory of Pacs. The viewer comes up fine but there is just a big black bocks and no image. The controls are on the right hand side that seem to work but there isnt an image. I checked the Apache error logs and there isnt anything there about this.
In the java console I get this:

Java Applet Black Image
Can you check which Dicom transfer syntax is used to encode the images you are viewing? You can do that by clicking on the URL link displayed underneath any of the images from the Thumbnail Images page, which will display a list of all raw Dicom data elements within that image, and the top few lines will show the transfer syntax used to encode that image.
The free/open-source Java applet viewer (AiViewer) only supports the Dicom default Implicit VR Little-Endian transfer syntax. So if your images are encoded in other transfer syntaxes, you should download and install one of the commercial viewers, e.g., RemotEye, Radscaper, MedDream, MedView, etc., which all supports more transfer syntaxes.
