Help RMIR and RM are no longer working

Post by **vickyg2003** » Mon Jan 20, 2014 8:27 am

Hi all,
After java updates this week, I can't get RM or RMIR to start.

Anyone else having issues?

Shoot. That's not good. I haven't tried it yet, but I will. Can you tell what java version is the culprit?

Java 7 build 51
IRMaster still works, but RM can't be started from icons or by clicking on the jar, it just goes into nah,nah land. I can't find any remnants in the task manager either.

Java 1.7 51 (the latest, I believe) works for me on XP systems. I also have a Windows 7 64 bit system which has both 32 bit and 64 bit Java installed. The 32 bit version (located in Program Files (x86) is 1.7 version 51, installed on Jan 19, and it works with RMIR. I do use Anthony Patrick's setup.vbs script.

Almost understandable...

Having said that, it is not nice of the program to go bellyup for a missing file.

Thanks Barf, I located a copy of the missing file, and all is well. I wonder what caused it to go missing in the first place, and have it happen with all the updates.
