Oxygen quit when lauched .

[denis77]

I downloaded the new version and when I lauched it : the application quit.
My Os is 10.2.8 on a Beige G3 (upgraded 50 Mhz G4)
Is there a workaround ?

Thanks.

Hello,

First you can check that you have all the software updates installed. (See System Preferences/Software Update).

Next, open a Terminal (Applications/Utilities) and change directory to the Oxygen install folder. For examlple:

cd /Applications/Oxygen4.0/

Check the java version, it should be above 1.4:

java -version

And then list the contents of the oxygen.app:

ls -l oxygen.app/Contents/Resources/java

The listing should contain the line:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dan staff 27280 18 Sep 2003 JavaApplicationStub

If the x's are missing from the left part of the line, you should fix the file permissions by using:

chmod +x oxygen.app/Contents/MacOS/JavaApplicationStub

Let me know if you succeeded.

I have the folloving messages :

[radon:/Applications/Oxygen] den% java -version
Error occurred during initialization of VM
java/lang/NoClassDefFoundError: java/lang/Object
Trace/BPT trap

I understand "Nothing" !

For the file permissions :
-rwxr-xr-x 1 den admin 27280 May 13 21:03 JavaApplicationStub
(admin instead of staff !)

About the software updates installed , I have all of them excepted one about security and another about Ipod.

Can you help me ? It seems that I have some problem with Java.

I'm going to see on Apple web site if there is any indication.

This is a Java problem.
You can try to reinstall it. See:

This link http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/javaupdate.html is for Panther. As I can run without problem the application I need today without problem, I'm afraid to run an update for Panther as I am sticked with Jaguar on G3?

If anybody can run Oxygen on Jaguar, could you indicate me wich java version you have ?

Thanks

I have searched Google and apple.com, but I could not find any reference about reinstalling the Java 1.4.1 on Jaguar. (This should be the last java update on Mac OS X 10.2).

However, you can make Oxygen to use Java 1.3.1 by changing into the Info.plist file (Click on Show package contents - with oxygen.app selected) the required java version from 1.3+ to 1.3.1
