Cool, thanks for the info.

That link that opens up the registration page will be changing to something else put together by Darin and Melissa. For now it is just a place holder until I get the real URL.

A change that was talked about today with Bill was to show a "New User/Getting started with Designer" URL in the browser the first time a user starts up Designer. This would be done instead of the dialog asking if we can do the ping back and asking if they want to register. Let's discuss if anyone has any problems with this or questions.

Hi Tim,

Below are some of observations on latest build 5.1.0.366:

1. In latest builds, JRE folder is missing. Due to this Designer is not opening after successful installation. If i copy old build JRE folder in to current installation folder, Designer is opening successfully.

2. I have downloaded latest XAware build in my system and extracted all files. I have clicked on exe file and dialog is displayed saying we need jre1.5 with Download and locate buttons.

On clicking Download button, following error message is displayed:

Error downloading the Java(TM) Runtime Environment.
Please check your internet connection and start setup again.
Log: C:\Documents and Settings\ravindra\Local Settings\Temp\i4j_nlog_2

And also above said log file does not exists in the specified path.
Note: Same issue if higher version of JRE 1.5 is installed.

3. To overcome the above issue i have downloaded
jdk-1_5_0_15-windows-i586-p.exe and installed required JRE.
And installed XA-Designer All-in- one installation along with Jboss successfully.


When i opened the designer form startup, following error is displayed:

" A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK)
must be available in order to run XA-Designer. No Java virtual machine
was found after searching the following locations:
..\jre\bin\javaw.exe"

Then i set JAVA_HOME with current Jdk150 path , still same issue.

Now i opened the XA-Designer.in file and set the
vm ..\jre\bin\javaw.exe path with current JRE installation path, xa-designer opened successfully.

I think if we are not shipping JRE with build, it would be good if we remove
vm ..\jre\bin\javaw.exe line in XA-designer. in file.
So that users can set Java_Home path

4. I have already logged into xaware forum, while installation Xaware forum page is displayed with the following message:

" You are not authorized to view this resource.
Certain pages such as Registration are only viewable by Community Members which are not already logged"

I think it will be good if we replace "which" with "who" in the message.

Thanks,
Ravindra.Ch

Hi Virginia,

The dynamic help is working with the new installer. I did notice that the resources folder is not in the new installer. This ia causing the following severe log message:

Hi Tim,

Below are a couple of noted issues with TOMCAT.

1. Executing start-tomcat.cmd does not start the server. I used startup.bat.
2. I believe $XAWARE_HOME$ should be %XAWARE_HOME% in catalina.bat
3. When selecting the TOMCAT all-in-one, the JDK is not installed
4. Executing HotDeploy.bat returns the following error:
The system cannot find the path specified.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/xaware/ide/xadev/tools/gui/packagetool/DeployXar
