Java
My java isn't working, therefore I cant get into accyweb chatroom. I've reinstalled it and its still not working, I just get an error. Any suggestions as to what the problem can be?

Re: Java
Two Q's here.
Where did you get java from? (Should be java.sun.com) What version is currently installed? (open a MS DOS Command prompt , type 'java -version' without the quotes obviously and let me know what it says.Just the top line something like "java version 1.5.0_05") Its either The plugin for your browser hasn't realised that its been updated and is still pointing to an old version that has now been removed Or... It could just be that the chatroom software was written to run on an old version of Java, by installing a new version it stops working as it depends on what we call class files that are no longer part of the java language. (Java is a living language and constantly improves, the standard says that classes can be marked as deprecated which means they will be removed in the next version. |

its 1.6.0_03 - the newest version that you download very easily off the java website. I have suspicions that its not just a problem with accyweb solely though, as I seemed to get error messages off the java website too :rolleyes: |

Re: Java
See here
Microsoft Corporation Pedant says Neil is technically correct, talk to any techie and he will still call it a dos command prompt. It even pumps out Microsoft DOS as its 'version'. Seeing as the original MS stood for Microsoft its a tenuous argument either way. Its a command interpreter that will interpret MSDOS as well as extended command set. so as teh command line java command is 32 bit its technically not MS DOS per say rather Microsoft DOS if you get my meaning. anyway, 1.6 has made quite a number of changes and anyting marked as deprecated in 1.5 would be removed in 1.6. As teh chatroom software was almost certainly written for 1.4.2 this is why it is likely to be failing. Roll back to 1.4.2 or 1.5 and it should be OK. |
Re: Java
mine is 1.6 etc as well

Re: Java
You need to uninstall it from add/remove programs then dopwnload a version 1.4.2 or 1.5
1.4.2 is here Archive: Download Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition, v 1.4.2_15 (J2SE) |
