Download and install problem
« on: Oct 14th, 2003, 12:24am »

I had to reload Processing on my Win2000 machine and now the examples won't run! My suspicion in that there's some problem with the correct path to Java. Is there a way to check that? Thanks.

you don't need to install java if you're using the "standard" version instead of the expert version. so if you're having java problems, use the 'standard' version, since the 'expert' is only intended for people who are familiar with fighting w/ these java annoyances. the price for both products is the same, as are the features.
 
other problems that make things not run:
 
1) versions older than 63 may have trouble with weird CLASSPATH settings. 63 and later will ignore them. to fix: download a newer release.
 
2) you might be trying to use 'java' mode with the standard release, which is not yet working. (should be noted in bugs.txt) to fix: download the newest jre from java.com, and install it.
 
3) something else that might be a bug.. ?
