Cannot run ADTPro on Windows 10, 98, XP or OS X El Capitan on four machines #70

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

I am having problems starting ADTPro on four different machines, Windows 10, 98, XP, and OS X El Capitan. On each machine the JAVA has been verified and tested with another .jar program that work perfectly. I am assuming that JAVA is ok. My suspicion is that adt.bat or adt.cmd (converted to adt.command) script is the issue. I do not see any instructions about the script other than "rem" statements. I have tried JAVA jre-6u45-windows-i586 without any success. I uninstalled jre-6u45-windows-i586 and then installed 8 Update 201. For the cable needed I have FTDI drivers installed and Operating systems all verified the FTDI drivers.

I'm not sure you're going to have a lot of luck on either Win 98 or XP, but 10 and OSX should be fine. What can you tell about the messages you're getting in the console when you start the batch or .command files?

Here are the messages from the terminal.

You don’t want to run a .BAT file from OSX - what does running the .command do for you?

ghost commented 5 years ago

I was running the adt.command on my MB. Those were the results from the terminal.

Ok, that doesn't quite make sense - the REM statements are a batch file construct. Did you download the ADTPro-2.0.3.dmg from the downloads page?

ghost commented 5 years ago

Evidently I did not have the latest version from GITHub. I downloaded ADTPro 2.0.3 and installed the .dmg file. Next I had a message to install JAVA Development kit. I download from Oracle's website the JDK file 8_201. Bingo! ADTpro 2.0.3 is working on my MAC Book Pro El Capitan. I like the fact that the ADTPro application is residing in the application folder.

I hope other individuals read this solution.

Thank you David Schmidt for your fast response and assistance.
