Opening program

[AlBea]

Hi - I just came across your Portfolio Manager program. It looks like it would do exactly what I want. I was able to download the file. However, when I hit Run, I got a DOS window that said "Access is Denied"

Any way of opening the file?

Thanks,

Al Brockman

Hi!

This should be quite simple to fix! The application needs to be able to write on the disk (to store user data). 

So my guess is that the directory from where you are executing the application is "read only" OR your "windows user" does not have sufficient rights.

Let me know if works (or doesn't).

Regards,

Alex

Hi,

ok, I can see the problem in launch.log

I believe the first error your encountered (access denied) was because you had insufficient rights, but it's all good now.

All you need now is to install "java", which is required to execute the application.  You can follow the instruction here: http://code.google.com/p/stock-portfolio-manager/wiki/GettingStarted (see "Install Java" section).

launch.log:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

set classpath=.;StockPortfolioLauncher.jar 

java -jar StockPortfolioLauncher.jar 

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.

Hi, Alex

I made sure that the folder from which I was executing was NOT read only. As noted, I am trying this in a user with full administrative rights, not just an administrator. I am attaching the launch.log file. There is no trace file. Is it possible that there was a bad download?

Also, I noticed that when I attempted to run the program, the launch file lost its suffix jar.

Hi,

In the directory where you are executing, you should find the file  "launch.log" + a "log" folder should have been created with the logfile "trace.log". Can you send me both files ?

If none of these files are present, the only possible cause is insufficient rights.

Also, make sure that the directory where you are executing has the "read only" checkbox unchecked.

If the "log" directory is not there, it means that there's still something wrong with the rights or

Hi - Thanks for the quick reply. The folder from which the file is attempting to execute is within the root drive programs folder. To check on the "rights", I created a user with full administrative rights and attempted to run the launch file from that folder. I now get the following in the DOS window:

Each of the message lines begin with the name of this program and its path. Then

echo off
launch.log
launch.log
pause

When I hit a key, the DOS dialog disappears.
Any thoughts/suggestions??
