Doesn't seem to work on Windows 8.1 #69

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
 1. Try to start dsbudget on a Windows 8.1 machine

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
 The program should start up and show budget information in the browser.  Instead, the browser attempts to open it and the title (of latest budget page) but the browser reports that it is unable to display the page after several seconds

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
 2.0.24 on Windows 8.1

Please provide any additional information below.
 I am completely baffled as to how this won't work on 8.1.

I just updated my PC from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. It's working fine on my 
laptop. Maybe you need to reinstall Java? Or maybe dsBudget itself? Also, can 
you see anything interesting in the dsbudget.log?

dsbudget.log can be found in directory similar to..
> C:\Users\your_user_id\AppData\Roaming\dsBudget\

I have the same issue with Windows 8.1, page not found no matter what browser I 
use. Contents of the log file, nothing interesting:

2013-11-13 12:40:27,880 INFO main@0 dsbudget.Main - Starting dsBudget server 
2.0.24
2013-11-13 12:40:28,301 INFO main@421

That's all. Thought it might be firewall based, but whenever I shut down both 
avast and windows firewalls, I just get a different error (see screenshot). The 
original error is just a run of the mill "server not found" error. The tray 
icon appears just fine but it's having trouble finding the server.

Any thoughts? As for Java I have JRE 7 update 45 so it's up to date.

In your Roadming/dsBudget directory, do you see a directory "tomcat"? If you 
right click / properties, you should see directory size to be about 3.56MB.

Just to give an update to my situation, I solved the initial problem that I was 
having. The recent log was mostly useless, as it only showed initializing, 
starting, opening a browser. I scrolled back up to much earlier in the log when 
I originally had my first issues, and noticed "java.net.BindException: Address 
already in use: JVM_Bind:16091"

Easy fix... I just went in to user configuration and changed the Tomcat port to 
something different (16095 in my case). While I don't really know what would be 
using that port, my only assumption is that something during the upgrade 
process that I have on my computer got modified to use that port (this has 
happened on both my tablet (Surface Pro) and my desktop PC, so perhaps I had a 
similar program on both devices)

Hi there, I'm running ds budget on windows 8.1 and am getting the above tomcat 
error. I am pretty useless on computers so all this talk about logs is foreign 
to me. Can you please explain the steps simply so I can try to fix this? I 
really want this program back, it's the best budget program out there.
