Hi guys, I downloaded processing 3.1.1 on a windows 7 machine. I started the program and i wrote a simple sketch than I pressed the run button.. and nothing happened, no errors, no warnings, nothing. I've tried the same on several machines but the same problem occurred. I've also read the troubleshooting section on github but i didn't manage to solve the issue. Has anyone encountered the same problem? Is there a way to get some log info? Thanks.

  • I'm using a 64-bit Windows 7 here in my laptop.
    All Processing versions since 1.5.1 had worked here w/o any problems.
    I'm also using 64-bit P3.1.1 right now. ~O)

    The way you've explained your situation doesn't clarify whether you've used any older Processing versions before in your computer.

    Another important consideration is the Windows' firewall.
    When you 1st run your particular Processing version, have you authorized it to access your network? :-/

  • I've tried older versions and they all work. Only versions 3.X seem to not work, and i don't think its the firewall. Maybe a graphics card problem, I don't know. I'll keep using the older versions in that machine. Thanks. (ps: why the firewall should matter?)

  • B/c Processing's IDE (PDE) communicates w/ the running sketch.
    For example, the stop button which forces the sketch to close immediately.
