GaryK4 Posted January 18 Posted January 18 (edited) Some time ago, the console would not load. I had to install IcedTea.web on windows 11. That kind of worked. It went directly into the console without using the Finder. The finder did not work with IcedTea. Now when I try to load the console an error message appears (XML Parse Error http://isy:80/desc. I did upgrade my java from 8 to OpenLogic-OpenJDK Build jdk17u). I don't go to the console often, but that may be the problem. After upgrading Java, I did not do anything with IcedTea. I tried manually loading the IoX finder and selecting the pull down menu Admin Console (LAN), but that did nothing (wheel spun, then closed). There must be a better way to run the console. Need third part software like IcedTea, every java update seems to break something. I don't make many changes, so it is always a pain to figure out how to get it running again. Side notes: I use Home assistant with ISY and many other devices and love it. I have Debian Linux running on a VM within Proxmox. Is it better to run ISY from there? It has OpenJDK 17.0.9 installed. IcedTea web is NOT installed and I don't know hot to install it yet or if it will work with OpenJDK and ISY. When I bring up the web app on Linux and select Admin Console, Java 2+ Required is diplayed. Will the new EISY have the same console startup issues? Edited January 18 by GaryK4 More info
Michel Kohanim Posted January 18 Posted January 18 @GaryK4, Why would you need Icedtea-Web for Windows???? If you have problems with the IoX Launcher, please submit a ticket. With kind regards, Michel
GaryK4 Posted January 18 Author Posted January 18 From what i understand newer versions of java does not include javaws.exe. IcedTeaWeb added it back. What am I missing.
Solution Michel Kohanim Posted January 18 Solution Posted January 18 @GaryK4, What you need to install is this: https://www.java.com/en/download/ With kind regards, Michel
GaryK4 Posted January 18 Author Posted January 18 That is Java 8! Java is up to version 18. I do some software development and some features require the later versions. I don't know if I can have the old and new on the same computer.
GaryK4 Posted January 18 Author Posted January 18 OK, I got that to work. Had to tweak the environment variables a little. Thank, I am good to go.
