I have only just found this absolutely superb program that you have written. many thanks for making it available to all on TMC. I have a question that I hope you can help with.
I am running a MacPro 2 x 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon with 4 GB of Ram the OS is 10.5.5.
The problem is that when I double click on CoffeeRoastDB.jar it shows the launch window, which says "Loading please wait" and then it just crashes.
Do you, or any of the other Mac users on TMC have any idea as to what may be wrong?
All the Best
Eric
Hi Eric, As far as I know you are the first person to try this program on OSX. As Apple have only issued the required version of Java SE 6 for 64 bit intel based Mac’s I have been unable to do any testing on OSX. Given this it is not surprising that you are having a problem.
Steve does not have the required 64 bit Intel Mac so uses Windows for this program.
I took the trouble to write and include a very simple troubleshooter program to try to identify any problems. The troubleshooter will work with Java SE 5 and above and provides information on your operating system, Java version etc. The troubleshooter will also try to run the program if you have the required version of Java and will report on messages issued as the program attempts to start.
I would be grateful if you would navigate to the installation folder and run Troubleshoot.jar. If the troubleshooter detects the required version of Java it will enable a button to allow you to attempt to run the program. Click the button and wait for the program to start or to fail. Please then copy and paste the contents of the two windows (top window system data, bottom window program output/error messages) into a PM and send to me. I will then try to identify what the problem is.
