Hi downloaded this program for programming Jython in University. The version 5.02 on GitHub requires old Java, that can not be installed on the new mac os. I tried te beta on your site and now the program start but it automatically closes after the small loading window (without errors). Please help me, i know that you are alone in the project but i hope that you will help me :D Thanks!

Use the version here: https://computinged.wordpress.com/2019/07/22/beta-release-of-new-jes-jython-environment-for-students-now-available-media-computation-for-python-ide/

And use Java 8. There are reports on Twitter of people getting it to work on Catalina.

does the program have a log file when i can see which problem it has? Because it closes without errors

Roberto2200 commented 4 years ago

Update: i formatted the Macbook (12' Retina - Early 2015) and installed java 8 update 551, and JDK 13. Nothing, JES load for 4/5 seconds then it closes without errors

mjguzdial commented 4 years ago

Java 13 will definitely not work. Jython won't work with any JRE after Java 8.

One suggestion is to remove the newer JRE's and just install Java 6 (legacy) or Java 8.

I deleted ALL files of java 13 and reinstalled Java 8.121 JDK. NOW IT WORK (giving to the program. full access to the disk). Thank you so much for the help! :D
