[opensuse] Crossover Linux & JVM
I know this isn't quite the forum for Crossover, but to ask a question on their's, you have to be a customer, but I won't be one, if I can't decide that Crossover is suitable for what I want to do. I'm trying to run a Windows app that requires JVM. I can install Sun's JVM without any problems, but the app I want to use complains it can't find a JVM. I've tried installing the app & JVM in the same bottle and also in separate bottles, with the same results. Does anyone know if it's possible to run an application that needs JVM in Crossover? If so, how? BTW, I am running OpenSUSE, to keep on topic. ;-) tnx jk -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

They have to be in the same bottle ( similar to same machine ). It might help if we knew which app you are talking about. -- Ken Schneider SuSe since Version 5.2, June 1998 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I run (very much against my will) Maconomy, which is a web-based time card system. It requires MS Java (Sun's won't do - I love the idea of non-portable java). So I must run Explorer and CrossOver Office. It runs as expected. I just installed Java as any other application is installed. I would imagine that Sun's java would be no different. Maybe the issue is more that it does not like the version of java you have installed?

Same here. Except that CrossOver Office is less usable when run on 10.3 compared to 10.0. Oddly, the exact same CrossOver Office that runs all X on any and all 10.0 SUSE will not run those apps on 10.3. I can only conclude that CO is less happy with the kernel in 10.3. I tried a new CO, as well as taking contact with the good folk at CO, with no solution. It has gotten me to finish implementing use of MinGW, as it was MSVC++ that stopped working in 10.3. So perhaps there was benefit in the end. Perhaps James is encountering this type of thing? -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Kapellgränd 7 P.O.

I have tried using the same bottle, both installing JVM first and also the app first. The application is a configuration utility for a TalkSwitch PBX. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I don't know what else to tell you. As I mentioned in other notes, the application couldn't find the JVM, even when using the same bottle. I gave up on it, as I had other work to do. If you want to try the app, you can get it here: http://talkswitch.com/support/phone_system_vs/ Version 6 is the one that requires JVM, but wouldn't install. Version 5 would install, but still not work. -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
