Oxygen XML Forum

Hi,

downloaded and installed the 8.2 release (tar on Linux, Sun JRE 1.6),
Then ran the oxygen.sh Startup Script. This invariably
made the program run into an exception at around
60% of views loaded. The trace says, roughly, that there is no method
setDisableInteractions(Z) in ....JSVGCanvas.

After some searching, I found two jars in the lib subdirectory,
batik-all-1.6.jar, and batik.jar. Renaming batik.jar using some
non-jar name removed the problem, and oxygen starts as expected.

Is this correct, and maybe worth a notice for users of recent
JVMs, or have I just been lucky?

Hello,

You instaled version 8.2 in the same folder as a previous version and there is a conflict between the two versions of the Batik library. Please install a new version of oXygen in a different folder as we recommend in the User Manual.

OK, thanks, reinstalling following the different
installation instructions has made it work. (The directory
of a previous 8.1 installation did not exist any more, and
I tried after removing ${HOME}/.com.oxygenxml/ completely,
but still...)

Could you consider adapting or linking the installation
instructions on the download page to the instructions
in the manual?

regards,
Georg

We will add a note on the Download page about installing different versions of oXygen in different folders.


Thanks,
Sorin

Excellent. Thanks.
