Is anyone using Airview on XP x64?

[mmcginty]

I can't get the software to install, it says it needs SP2 but I have it. Just wondering if anyone has successfully installed on x64.

It was definitely tested on both XP and Vista x64 with latest SPs. Are you getting this error dialog at beginning of install time?

...Also, can you please confirm for me your JVM version? You should be able to open a command prompt and just type "java -version" and paste the output here.

Thanks,

Actually I am having the same problem on one machine - installer gives an error message about service pack 2 (which I also have).


C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>java -version
java version "1.6.0_18"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_18-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 16.0-b13, mixed mode)

Ok, thanks AG... It's been so long since I released these installers I really thought all was fine since no one complained. But ok, I'll re-run my installers here again to make sure I didn't miss anything. Will report back as soon as I can.

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>java -version
java version "1.6.0_18"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_18-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 16.0-b13, mixed mode)

Even though the install pkg is 64-bit, the native device access code is still 32-bit, which is all it needs to be. So you'll need to install the 32-bit JRE as well on your system for AirView to work. This is no issue since the 2 of them can co-exist on the same system.

I'll get back to you on the SP level issue shortly.

Can one of you folks try this installer on your Windows XP x64 installation and let me know if it still has the same installer dialog error issue?

Ok, that's great. An update of the Windows installer utility did the trick. I'll update the x64 pkg in the downloads area. Thanks for trying that out MM.

Hey AG... how about you? Did you give this a try?

Cheers,

For starters, something is borked with my system.

Installer will not continue without 64Bit Java installed. I removed both versions and re-installed the 32bit only and it complained that it didn't have the right version.

Re-installed 64bit and it installed, but wouldn't run.

Removed the 64 bit, reinstalled/repaired 32 bit and app won't start.

The "AirView Spectrum Analyzer.exe" file craps out with an error that it can't find the JRE, but if I double click on the "airview-o.jar" the app loads up.

NBFD, will just create a shortcut to the jar and deal with it.

We have detected you may be viewing this page in a 32-bit browser. If you use 32-bit and 64-bit browsers interchangeably, you will need to install both 32-bit and 64-bit Java in order to have the Java plug-in for both browsers.

Oh AG... my most humble apologies sir. I messed up in a not-so-well-known area of the installer config. I've corrected the problem and uploaded a new x64 installer (same link, same filename). Please try this one and let me know. Make sure you delete the old file you already downloaded so to make sure you fully download the new one.

Thanks,

Same error as before....


C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>java -version
java version "1.6.0_18"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_18-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 16.0-b13, mixed mode, sharing)


Edit: re-installing the 64bit java fixes it.

Hello,

Thanks for updating us.

Did you try the removal tool? I had to jack around with the JRE stuff for awhile to get it to install, I had to use the removal tool for both 32 bit and 64 bit, then I installed the latest JRE, 32 and 64 bit.

If you used the 32 bit browser to get to the AirView download page, using the Java links was confusing, I think the link tries to confirm the 64 bit version but the Java site takes you to the 32 bit setup?

A did some Jave development last year, had multiple versions of JDK, and multiple IDE/build environments as well. Who knows what got broken amongst them... I guess I'll find out next time I need any of that stuff. :-)
