Exception trying to open file

Post by RafPe »

Hi!

First of all - great program and really happy for having chance using it. I was using till now the newest version without any problems on my windows VM. Strangely enough suddenly it refused to open new files ( the browse for file window would not pop up ). So I installed on my mac Os hoping it would work - but I get exactly the same behaviour

Code: Select all

C:\Windows\system32>java -jar "C:\Users\RafPe\Downloads\AutolevellerAE-0.7.8 (1).jar"

Altough coding is not something abstract for me - seems like I cannot do much here :O . I have tried running it with admin permissions on Windows and then on MacOs. Neither worked.

I have tried update of Java - did not help.

I have tried reinstalling Java - no help :/


Would appreciate some input how we could tackle this one here!

Thanks

OK so what is happening is at the point you try to open a file, it searches the registry to see if theres a default directory saved previously (which if you have ever opened a gcode file before, there should be such a registry entry), if not, it just defaults to your user home folder. It seems it not working correctly in your case. I shall look into it.

Would you be able to provide more info where exactly it looks in registry for such entries ?

Sure, In my Windows 10 PC there is a registry entry in:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com\cncsoftwaretools\autoleveller\ui\controllers

The entry has the name "default/Dir" and my current value is "/D:///Google /Drive///Autoleveller//autoleveller debug file//john"

Hi!
I have the same problem like RafPe :"suddenly it refused to open new files ( the browse for file window would not pop up )" on PC with win XP sp3 32bit and a same thing happened on PC with win 7 32bit,no matter if I started AutolevellerAE-0.7.6 or 0.7.8.
For now AutolevellerAE-0.7.8 working on a machine with win 8.1 64bit ,but on that PC not working paralell port for MACH3. :(

Ok - So I have resolved the problem on MacOs - what I did was delete file ~/Library/Preferences/com.cncsoftwaretools.autoleveller.plist

I'm guessing that on Windows deleting registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Prefs\com\cncsoftwaretools will recreate it on next start and app will continue to work.

Would be interest to find out what happened here ;)

Hope this helps!

Regards
Raf
