Salaam,

Please download and test latest SWT for your platform from here:

http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.8M1-201108031800/index.php#SWT

Unzip the package and put swt.jar under Zekr lib folder (replace the old one with downloaded version). Test and tell us about the result.

BTW, I didn't test Zekr against Linux+Java 7 yet.

Regards,

Mohsen

I tried with both Oracle's JRE and OpenJDK, and the same error.

[Saeed Rasooli]

I also tried with jre 6u26 (version of package)
$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode)

And still the same error (libxul.so: undefined symbol: gtk_major_version)

I am an old man and recently purchased new laptop with windows 7.  Also purchased latest version of Inpage with Zekr Quran software, but I am unable to run Zekr with windows 7.  It runs ok on my old pc with windows xp.  Can any body please help me, as I am a layman in pc.

As-salamu alaykum.
I just tested Zekr on Windows 7.

After I downloaded Zekr from zekr.org, and installed, it didn't run
saying "Java VM" not found.

Then I downloaded Java from http://java.com/download, and installed.
After that, Zekr worked!

So try to install Java, if you had the same problem.

Asalaam Alaykum,

this has almost nothing to do with your issue of running Zekr on windows7; but in general and advise I give to my family members that you should buy either a Mac (which lowest price is bellow $900) or if that is still pricy buy a pc but with an Linux (like) Operating System. This makes your life much easier in the long run and your pc will not slow down because of many many viruses that are out there targeting windows based pc's.  

So if you just bought this pc and you can afford it; then buy a Mac and return your pc. If you can't affor it then load Linux (Ubuntu) and there is even a simple script that makes ubuntu into Mac like interface called (Macbuntu).

Salaam Alaykum Wa-Rahmatullah wa-barakatu,

Fraidoon

Salaam,

@Saeed,

According to SWT FAQ, from version 3.3, there is no need to put these native files in PATH, as they already exist in jar file. Are you sure you didn't unpack jar file? You should have swt-mozilla-gtk-3800.so in swt.jar (which should itself exist in <zekr>/lib folder).

Also try with a 32-bit JRE + 32-bit SWT.

Abdul Rauf,

Salaamun Alaikum,

I don't know who prepared the package you purchased, but please note that Zekr is a free/gratis software of no charge and the official download site is here: http://zekr.org/download.html

My suggestion is: download this portable package, unzip it somewhere on your computer and run zekr.exe.

Portable package has Java inside, so no need to have anything elese.

Regards,

Mohsen

Dear mr Abdul Malik

From where you purchase Zekr Quranic software, have you pay for this software or you purchase InPage software and Zekr was bundled in InPage cd?

Dear Iqbal,

Wa alaikumassalaam wr,

There is no problem if you prepare a special package for Zekr and sell it, according to Zekr GPL license. I just wanted to remind that the official download site is zekr.org and that some unofficial packages on the internet may contain badwares.

Regards,

Mohsen

Dear Br. Iqbal Ahmed,

I had purchased Inpage from Qari M Akram Mohammadi, 2 Jail Road, Lahore, with payment who did not provide me any cd, but installed the Inpage on my laptop with Zekr software files.  He tried to run the Zekr, but could not succeed.  He told me that windows 7 does not support this.
