I am having problems installing xapplication. When I try to run start.cmd at the dos prompt I get a error message saying

C:\windows\system32\ntvd.exe
Error while setting up environment for the application. Choose ‘Close’ to terminate the application

Hi Howey,

could you please give us some more information about your environment?

• OS Version
  
• X-Application version
  
• Java version
  
• Tamino & Tomcat versions (just for completeness!)
  

I had problems installing xapplication. When I run setup at the dos prompt I get this error message :

it receive this msg :
buildfile : ncconfig\buildlib.xml

C:\windows\system32\ntvdm.exe
Error while setting up environment for the application. Choose ‘Close’ to terminate the application

When i ignore the msg i receive
Build Failed
Null

My configuration :
Windows XP (francais)
X-Application version 3.1.2
Java version 1.4.0
Tamino Server 3.1.1
Tomcat versions 3.3a

Thx in advance
Bat O.

Hello,

the new version of X-Application 3.1.3 is available for download. We tested the installation of this version also on XP. Instead of an bat file, it has properties file to setup the environment. Therefore, my propose is to try out the new version.

Bye,
Christian.

I have the same problem.

X-Application Version: 3.1.3
Tamino Version : 3.1.1
Platform : WinXP Pro
WebContainer : Tomcat 4.0.4
JDK Version : 1.4.0_01

What are those properties file? (xapplication.properties?)

I finally find out the solution:

You must upgrade ANT from v1.4.1 to v1.5 !

Download ANT via http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-ant/release/v1.5/

Unzipped the file,
replace \tools\bin with <jakarta-ant-1.5>\bin
(I also copy <jakarta-ant-1.5>\lib*.* to overwrite the same files in \tools\bin )

then run “setup” again, it should work!
