DriveWire 4 Server Files

Please consult the documentation:

http://sourceforge.net/p/drivewireserver/wiki/Main_Page/


To start DriveWire 4 from a GUI, double click on the DW4UI file most likely to work on your system...

Windows users can double click on DW4UI.exe or DW4UI.jar

Mac OS X users can double click on DW4UI.command

Linux and *BSD users can double click DW4UI.sh  (You may need to edit the permissions to make this file executable)

There are many different factors that can determine whether any of these files will work for you.  

If you are unable to start DriveWire 4 using any of the above files, you can probably still start it
using the command line.

On all systems except Mac OSX, change to the directory where you unzipped the DW4 package, and enter:

java -jar DW4UI.jar

On Mac OS X, instead enter:

java -XstartOnFirstThread -jar DW4UI.jar

NOTE FOR LINUX USERS:

If you encounter an error message similar to the following:

#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
...snip...
# C  [libsoup-2.4.so.1+0x6c2a1]  soup_session_feature_detach+0x11

You may be able to use DriveWire by adding "-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla" to the command line, ie:

java -Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla -jar DW4UI.jar 


To start the (nongui) server only:

java -jar DW4UI.jar --noui

To start the GUI only:

java -jar DW4UI.jar --noserver

To start a lightweight UI (useful on Raspberry Pi or other machines with limited resources, or if other problems are preventing the full UI from starting):

java -jar DW4UI.jar --liteui

For additional debugging info that may be helpful, try:

java -jar DW4UI.jar --debug

or 

java -jar DW4UI.jar --logviewer

or

java -jar DW4UI.jar --help

for more options...
