Problems running DHIS 2 Live on Windows 7

Hi,

I have tried running DHIS 2 Live on a Windows 7 computer here. After double clicking the executable file it runs for 2 seconds before starting up the browser which displays a message saying the resource cannot be accessed. When looking in the log it only says the following:

  • INFO 13:44:51,022 Environment variable DHIS2_HOME: null (TrayApp.java [main])

  • INFO 13:44:51,147 Setting DHIS 2 web app context to: /C:/Dhis2/webapps/dhis (WebAppServer.java [main])

  • INFO 13:44:51,147 Lifecycle: server starting (TrayApp.java [main])

  • INFO 13:44:51,209 Lifecycle: server started (TrayApp.java [main])

Anyone with similar experiences? Anyone sitting on a Windows 7 computer who want to test this out and see if it can be reproduced?

Lars

Runs perfectly here. Windows 7 Professional 64.

Hi Lars,

The JRE release notes reads that Windows 7 support was added to 1.6.0_u16, so probably you need that one or newer… but I suspect 1.6.0_u14 also had added some Windows 7 support.

You should try the 1.6.0_16 and higher JRE and probably the batch scripts need to run as administrator… rest it does work fine on Windows 7 32-bit as well.

Thanks for the tip… That computer is running update 17 so it shouldn’t be that… Will try to build a new executable.

The problem was unrelated to Win7, rather a weird port-already-in-use error.
