Guiserver on Win10

[dukester]

Will not boot for me! A terminal window flashes by for a second or so, and then nothing. I accept all the defaults when I install. Ideas please!  TIA ....

Do you have Java installed?  I had no problem with newLISP installer on win 10 (64 bit) a few days ago

[dukester]

Java is installed and kept up to date!! :)  Other Java-centric software run without a problem.

Try running guiserver.jar from java

[dukester]

Code Select Expand


c:binnewlisp>java newlisp.jar
Error: Could not find or load main class newlisp.jar

Here's some more clues:

I have the exact same issue, except on ubuntu 16.04



It works fine on my windows 7 box. What the hell guys?

If I remember correctly, you have to install Java on Ubuntu first. Check to see if you have Java istalled.

>java -version

java version "1.7.0_131"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.6.9) (7u131-2.6.9-0ubuntu0.14.04.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.131-b00, mixed mode)

Yeah - i have java installed, open jdk 1.7



I trigger the guiserver lisp similar to my windows install and the command line says its listening on a specific port. I wait for the ide to start, thinking that java needed to spin up to display the gui itself (which never appears).

Tried installing open jdk 1.8 - same issue:

OK, had a brain moment -

so since the port was already bound, i tried different ports and it listens on them successfully - but i still get no gui display.



So just ran lsof to get  he pid of the process occupying newlisp's port, and i killed the process:

Code Select Expand


>lsof -i:64001
COMMAND  PID  USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
java    3283 serv1   58u  IPv6  30233      0t0  TCP *:64001 (LISTEN)
> kill 3283
>sudo java -jar guiserver.jar
newLISP-GS v.1.66 on Linux
 double buffering supported.
 listening on 64001


Should work the same way on the windows computer for the original question - try killing whatever process is occupying that port, or pick a different port like this: java -jar guiserver.jar 64002
