Have just downloaded RM v0.87 & for the first time since I have started using RM I cannot get this version to run on my Mac. 0.86a no problem but 87 seems to stall.
Moved my upgrades and the latest RDFs into the 0.87 folder - double clicked RemoteMaster.jar & as I find normal with an upgrade an error message states 'No RDF files found' . The program then asks me to point to the rdf folder - I then choose and nothing happens.
Up to this point I have always used RM on the Mac with no probs & I have always upgraded the same way each time a new version is completed.
Is this because of my OS or is it a problem affecting Windows as well?
OR, of course is it me??. _________________ ...Ron |

ok - just did as you suggested and RM is now opening with the default remote.
I go into File and click Open - usual message asks if I want to save - click 'no'
but I am not offered the Upgrade folder to 'Choose'. _________________ ...Ron |

The folder you are offered should be the one called UpgradePath in your RemoteMaster.properties file. Could it be that when you changed all the paths in the RemoteMaster.properties file you changes UpgradePath to point to a directory that doesn't exist? The RemoteMaster.v.x.xx.zip file no longer contains an Upgrades directory, so maybe that is the problem. _________________ -- Greg

Copy the RemoteMaster.properties file from where you have been using v0.86a, and then use a text editor to adjust any of paths in the file.
I'll fix this in the next version. |
Hello, I just installed a fresh copy of Remote Master and it is not running as mentioned in previous posts. Where can I get a copy of the RemoteMaster.properties file and were do I install it, since I am missing the file.
Thank You |

Create the file with notepad and include these entries and it should work.
Don't forget to change the entries to your directories and with the double slashes.

I tried creating and copying the above to the remotemaster.properties file and still can't get RM to run. RM errors are as follows:
Exception thrown when setting look and feel to com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel
Caught exception in RemoteMaster.main()!
java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "624 "
at java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(Unknown Source)

at com.hifiremote.jp1.KeyMapMaster.<init>(KeyMapMaster.java:105)
at com.hifiremote.jp1.RemoteMaster.main(RemoteMaster.java:12)
Any advice would be appreciated,
Thank You |

O.k. Thanks for the replies.
Still, I have not been able to run RM. Attached is my RemoteMaster.properties file:
RDFPath=C\:\\RM
PromptToSave=On Exit
Bounds=88,23,821,624
LookAndFeel=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel
ShowRemotes=All
UpgradePath=C\:\\RM\\Upgrades
ImportPath=c\:\\RM
The paths are accurate and I removed all blank spaces, so I have no idea what the problem is. The following errors are generated:
Caught exception in RemoteMaster.main()!
java.lang.NullPointerException
at com.hifiremote.jp1.Remote.compareTo(Remote.java:1308)
at java.util.Arrays.binarySearch(Unknown Source)
at com.hifiremote.jp1.RemoteManager.findRemoteByName(RemoteManager.java:70)
at com.hifiremote.jp1.KeyMapMaster.<init>(KeyMapMaster.java:206)
at com.hifiremote.jp1.RemoteMaster.main(RemoteMaster.java:12)
Thanks |
