Hi peeps,
I have installed processing on my Windows 7, 64 machine, and nothing is being drawn when I press run. I tried official examples as well as code that i had made work on a Mac. i suspect the code is not the issue, as there's no error or console log that smth might be bad and I also tried the simplest java code possible.
When i first opened it, Windows Firewall tried to not let java run, but I allowed it. I also made an exception for it, to make sure.
I followed the instructions on here: https://github.com/processing/processing/wiki/troubleshooting
And this is my log file:

Not sure what's wrong. I am aware that it should work on any machine...but just doesn't on mine :(
Please help!

Just a guess: Perhaps you shouldn't have installed it in "C:\Program Files\".
Choose some place away from drive "C:\". L-)
Unfortunately no, it didn't help. I deleted it from C:\, restarted, extracted the archive again in another drive, and same thing happens.
First Windows Firewall alert, I allow access, and then nothing. :( Also, the alert only appears the first time.
Seems not to be happy with the java.exe within the processing folder, however, i specifically gave access to it both in the Alert window and then manually inside the firewall. :(
Any other ideas?
Just maybe re-download it? :-??
Ok, did that. Almost nothing changed, besides no more Windows Alert, but the first time i got this message:
Setting Run Sketches on Display' preference to display 1
in the console. Then, the following times I run, nothing happens, no messages, no errors. And I can't see any preference with that title...So now, i figured, my problem is very similar to this one, that was never solved: https://forum.processing.org/two/discussion/12578/sketches-not-running
Also, when i press debug, everything freezes.
Anyone knows what this is? Or where i could find help with this? It's a bit urgent ;) Thanks a bunch!
Not sure if this helps, but when i had it freezed, i got this log
I wonder, is Processing not working when Eclipse is installed?
I'm in a 64-bit Win7 w/o Eclipse and 64-bit Processing 3.0.0 installed and running @:
"E:\Portables\processing-3.0\processing.exe"
I've also got P 2.2.1: "E:\Portables\processing-2.2.1\processing.exe"
And P 1.5.1 relying on system's JDK and using a diff. sketchbook folder: "E:\Portables\Processing\processing.exe"
Ok, I uninstalled Eclipse and it worked :)
How were you able to uninstall Eclipse? I am on the 64bit version of windows 10 running processing 3.3
