#11 Software doesn't start with JRE 1.5
I'm now trying to get d2 working on 3 computers:
- One with WinXP: Doesn't start
- One with Win7: Doesn't start
- One with WinVista: Starts, gets to the 'Connection Parameters' window, but then it doesn't access database
The ones which don't start do show the yellow+white+gray logo but then, nothing.
I'll now send you the logs for them (the Vista one doesn't log, I send a printscreen).
Thanks
Hi,
As you can see, your log files say: "java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file". Which seems to indicate that they require a JRE more recent than the one you use. Apparently you use 1.5, which should work, I will have to check what happened.
In the meantime, could you please try running the software with a 1.6 JRE?
About the "can't access database": please open an other bug report for this one. (One bug per problem.) Also check that the database you're trying to access ("test") does exist (e.g. by typing the mysql query "show databases;" with the SQL client you prefer.) And post the relevant log file to the new bug report...
Thanks.
Good news! d2 is running on my pc, the XP one, with jre-6u20-windows-i586-s.exe installed. And a new advance: GRIP showed up! But now I'm asked for a new login and password I don't have, what now?
I modify the bug subject, the software as documented should start with JRE 1.5.
Can you please confirm that installing 1.6 solves the problem on your second computer that was showing the same behavior?
As for the rest, please follow the instructions on the decision-deck.org website, and ask questions in the help forum if needed.
As you asked, I installed the same version of JRE in the pc with Windows 7 and it started running! And I found the login data in the website, so I finally have GRIP working! Merci beaucoup, Olivier :)
