You need to figure out why it's not finding and translating the
idl_catalog.xml file which is supposed to live in idl/help/
online_help.

Is this IDL 7? You didn't say. There's been some monkeying around
with the location of help files, and the entire help system which
IDLWAVE doesn't know about; see this tech tip:

http://www.ittvis.com/services/techtip.asp?ttid=4323

If you are using IDL 7, and don't want to go that whole route, you
could try creating a link or copy of idl_catalog.xml in help/
online_help (the moved it just to help/). I may release a version
which at least looks for the catalog file there.
