Ess and Sonia V2.9 on Mac OSX

This seems to be a unique problem because I haven't anyone else with this problem in the threads.  Basically when I use Sonia V2.9 or Ess they have to be the only library of their kind in the library folder in processing.  To elaborate I tried running a couple of example ESS codes when Sonia V2.9 was also in the library and no dice.  When I erased everything and reinstalled Processing 1.0 and then downloaded ESS and put it in the library folder, everything worked fine.  When I put Sonia in, Sonia codes wouldn't work.  Same is true if Sonia is installed first.  

I always get this message in the bottom error console:

/tmp/build6616.tmp/Temporary_144_596.java:58:3:58:5 Semantic error no field named "ESS" was found in Temporary_58:3:58:5

with different numbers of course for "temporary" and "Sonia" or "Minim" substituted for "ESS"

is this a temporary folder that processing is reading from or what?

if you have any clue what this error message means please enlighten me

A Million Thanks

just checking:

inside processing's folder is a folder called "libraries"

inside that folder you put a folder called "Ess"

inside *that* folder is a folder called "Library"

and inside *that* folder is a file called Ess.jar

is that the way you are doing it? because it should be. the general form for installing libraries is

Processing > Libraries > MyLibraryName > Library > MyLibrary.jar

that way all the different libraries can coexist.

i have no problem with having all the various sound libraries at the same time.

Yes, unfortunately, that's the same setup that I have, it seems like it's always one sound library or another though.  ???  thanks though

Seems to be working just fine now after quitting processing and logging in it just magically works the way it's supposed to.  It is Mac OS Leopard and it isn't the first time it's pulled this stunt...
