Processing 3.0 and 3.0.1 start problem - in windows domain environment

klsc

hello, I would test the new processing 3.0 on my workplace in a windows domain. I download the package (tested 32bit and 64bit), extract them and start the processing.exe . The splash screen shows just in time, but it takes about 10 minutes or more to show the IDE. If I load a sample and press run, the icon looks green but nothing runs. no errors in the log area.

in windows firewall java.exe from processing folder is allowed incoming and outgoing connections.

I tested on my personal computer at home, there is no problem.

(3.0b6 have the same behavior like the 3.0)

Can anyone give me a hint what could be the problem?

many thanks KS

Hello there klsc, i cant help im afraid but i am having exactly the same issue.

Would love to know the solution so i can crack on with my project.

I'm just passing to see if I can help in something. Try updating Java. Use 32bit. Maybe you can run it from a USB since processing is on a folder.

I think there is a complete java runtime in the processing zip package. I tested 32bit and 64 bit both have the same behavior.

klsc

first I have not installed oracle java. processing needs over 4 minutes to start the ide. I dare not even to test start a sketch. It wont be successful. then I install oracle java runtime, reboot the windows 7 and test again. -> still 5 minutes to start the IDE.

hint: If I click the "run" button, it changes the color , but within 5 minutes nothing is starting. no errors in the log area, nothing. console and errors are empty.

I tested processing 3.0.1 64bit and 32bit, same issue :(

klsc

should be the domain wide installed kaspersky antivirus? I can't deaktivate it :( I allow if Windows firewall asked.

I downloaded Processing 3.0.1-Windows64.zip on my PC (Windows 8.1). When I launch "processing.exe", the "Processing 3 An open project ..." window appears for 1 second then ... disappears. A different window, but the same problem, if I launch "processing-java-exe". This is probably a very trivial question ... any suggestion? (I had no problem with Processing 2.2.1)

ok i get the same error on my domain, solution for me is to go in preference file: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Roaming\Processing\preferences.txt (when app not launched) then change proxy settings... " proxy.http.host=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx proxy.http.port=xxxxx proxy.https.host=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx proxy.https.port=xxxxx proxy.socks.host=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx proxy.socks.port=xxxx " and evrything goes faster. regards.

I had exactly the same issue with 3.0 as @klsc in the first post. I've just uninstalled java from my computer and 3.0 is able to start normally :).

The idea came from the best answer by @didili in this thread: https://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/12578/#Comment_56862

I didn't have Eclipse, though.

klsc

as I start with the problem I had not installed any java package and no eclipse too.

I want to test it next week.

klsc

For your Information: I deinstall java runtime in windows system settings (like the beginning) but the behavior is the same. IDE start is more than 4 minutes, Sketch running does not work, no error message, no output nothing. I test to configure a proxy in the preferences but no improvement. The condition is the same as a few months ago. I can not use processing on my workplace within the windows domain and installed kaspersky av. :(

klsc

I have it run! I don't know why, but if I start processing with a local windows user account, it works perfectly. start as domain user -> problems describe above. The local user must not be an admin!

hint for domain users: you can start the program from your domain login enviroment with the command tool "runas /user:localusername". of course, the local user must be exist before.

The same issue as "klsc" posted was seen on my work place but it was solved by setting proxy servers and ports in preferences that "lardonfou" suggested. Thank you.

Thanks lardonfou, this worked great for me - P3 wouldn't load or took ab-sol-ute-ly ages to do so. I have yet to solve this for domain users with their roaming profiles, but it's a start!

Hi. I'm brand new to Processing and have had this exact problem. I can run Processing at home no problem but not on either of my work computers which are on a domain. We do run a proxy server but it's not enforced so I can by-pass it. In my preferences file I change this line "proxy.system=true" to "proxy.system=false" and now Processing runs normally. Just wanted to share on this old thread in case it helps anyone else.

Thanks

klsc

The option "proxy.system=false" works. But in processing 3.0.1 it was not available.

Adding the proxy configuration fixed the problem for me. So changing "proxy.http.host=" to "proxy.http.host=myproxyserver" and so on for https and socks. On the way I uninstalled java on the machine, but that didn't fix the problem
