How do I start this on Ubuntu? #1

Closed rubo77 closed 10 years ago

rubo77 commented 10 years ago

I cloned the he repository and tried to start it with

./start.jar

and with

java start.jar

But I got the error

Fehler: Hauptklasse start.jar konnte nicht gefunden oder geladen werden

I have instaled java jdk and jre but still I cannot start it.

Can you please update the README, so I can start it?

The instructions in Readme (txt) and documentation (pdf) apply to release builds only.

Now that you have cloned the repository you also have downloaded all previous releases. You can run one of them like this:

cd releases/
unzip DriftingDroids_1.3.2.zip
cd DriftingDroids_1.3.2/
java -jar start.jar

TODO: add infos about development environment and build process.

Better:

cd releases/
unzip DriftingDroids_1.3.2.zip -d ~/DrifingDroids
cd ~/DrifingDroids/DriftingDroids_1.3.2/
java -jar start.jar

Otherwise you unzip in your git repository and those unzipped folders are not ignored in .gitignore

If you want to use the program then you don't need to clone the git repository.

You can download the latest release via the homepage: https://github.com/smack42/DriftingDroids/wiki

The complete source code is included in the release packages, too.
