Just Purchased for MAC - Won't launch?

[faganwilcox]

Hi there,

I only just purchased this Editor version and have been trying to launch it. It just won't launch. I have all the latest updates - including the latest java update for mac. Am I missing something?

Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Does it display an error when you double click on the Oxygen icon? Does it start if you run the following command in a command line?

Code: Select all

sh oxygenMac.sh

oxygenMac.sh is located in the install folder. If it does not start please post the output of the command displayed at command line.

Hi There... it just says

PlanetX:~ lisaconstantine$ sh oxygenMac.sh
sh: oxygenMac.sh: No such file or directory

I'm not sure I'm doing that right. I just launch terminal and then input the code. F

Update.. I dragged the oxygenMac.sh onto terminal then ran it. Still no luck. I just read another post below - seems like a few people are having this problem.

Hello,

Please check that the file oxygen.tar.gz was downloaded correctly. The MD5 sum of the downloaded file must be: 3d77c28cbc0bfac07c5e0f80d979884a.

When you run the command you have to be in the folder that contains oxygenMac.sh, that is the Oxygen install folder. Please change the directory to Oxygen install folder and run the command

Code: Select all

sh oxygenMac.sh

What is the output of the command?

ok thanks.. the SH thing worked for me. I have no idea what the problem was though - it has not occurred with any other app I have installed. Sorry I can't help any further. Cheers. F

Hello,

It should start also by double click on the Oxygen icon created by unzipping the oxygen.tar.gz archive. We can try to investigate this problem if you want. What is the current Java version installed on your Mac system? That should be displayed by the command:

Code: Select all

java -version

That is strange because I tested with the same Java version and it works. Is your Mac system running OS X 10.5.7? Does the Oxygen icon start the application after you replace the file JavaApplicationStub from Oxygen.app/Contents/MacOS (Cmd-click on Oxygen icon, select Show Package Contents, go into Contents folder) with the following file?

Code: Select all

/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub
