Xojo alpha expired!

Hi,

Not sure if any others have found this — a pain since I have moved all my development to the Xojo 14 beta. Note, I DID make full backups first!

Xojo just auto-quit itself asking to report or Ignore — clicking either did nothing, so I quite Xojo gracefully. Now when I go to launch Xojo it says that the beta has expired and get a new copy from Xojo.com. When I go to Xojo.com the screen is blank. Plus the Xojo forum has had a lobotomy and won't load.

Has RS had a meltdown? How can I ask for help is the sites and forum are down and the www.realsoftware.com site provides no Xojo help yet? Has anyone else seen this? Should I go back and unzip RS2013r1?

Yours Sincerely,

David Cox

While at the conference there has been a security breach of the RS Webservers and no RS/Xojo sites were working.

See this Blog Entry - they are working very hard to get things up and running.

Thanks Trish and Patrick,

I still have a problem — RS made an announcement that their servers are backup, but it seems that does not include the Xojo server. Secondly, where can we discuss Xojo issues or download a new beta? We are not allowed to discuss Xojo on the old forum. I am even wary of mentioning it here!

I know I cannot release Xojo-based apps, but I am wanting to have some software ready and tested for June when Xojo will be released, so I don't want to go back to RS2012r1 or my testing will be delayed.

Hope you are both well. Patrick, I love your web-site, hope you get lots of business!

lol - I don't like my site anymore - it's very dated looking. I have a new version which is a lot cleaner, just need to finish it off and upload it.

As for Xojo - the name change is public knowledge now, so long as we don't discuss the contents of the beta's I think we'll be ok. The servers being down is a problem - think it's just a waiting game I'm afraid.

Geoff just replied and said:

We are working on getting a new beta out, hopefully today, and will email all beta testers with download links as soon as we have them.

this is what dana say about the old forum.

So we can talk on the NUG or the forum, just not show the IDE.

"That's right - it is public knowledge now, but do not expose the IDE.

As far as the beta is concerned, we are working to get out another build and get the forum back up ASAP. I will let you all know as soon as I have an BETA. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions or are not sure if you can post something on a public list.

Thanks for your patience!"

Please be patient and wait for RS to get the forum run again and post a new beta there.

For the time being, please use Real Studio to open the xojo projects.

Greetings

Yes. I heard the file format remains the same. It gives a warning, but opens OK.
