guiserver just hangs.

Howdy guys,
I tried to call newlisp-edit, and it never launches--the cursor just hangs there until finally I get the "Could not connect to guiserver" message.
I tried a sample with newlisp 9.2.0, and got
Code: Select all
(load "guiserver/font-demo.lsp")
sh: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory
Any ideas about what I can check to fix this?

Is it possible that you don't have java installed?
Code: Select all
> ls /usr/bin/j*
/usr/bin/jar /usr/bin/javaconfig /usr/bin/javaws /usr/bin/jmap /usr/bin/jsadebugd
/usr/bin/jarsigner /usr/bin/javadoc /usr/bin/jconsole /usr/bin/jobs /usr/bin/jstack
/usr/bin/java /usr/bin/javah /usr/bin/jdb /usr/bin/join /usr/bin/jstat
/usr/bin/java-rmi.cgi /usr/bin/javap /usr/bin/jikes /usr/bin/jot /usr/bin/jstatd
/usr/bin/javac /usr/bin/javatool /usr/bin/jinfo /usr/bin/jps

In my case its at
/opt/java/jre/bin/java
I can do java -jar guiserver.jar and it starts and listens on 64001.

Cool. That's the extent of my trouble-shooting expertise reached!

try this:
Code: Select all
/opt/java/jre/bin/java -jar /usr/share/newlisp/guiserver.jar 47011 /usr/bin/newlisp-edit

ps: check all path-files names. Instead of /usr/bin/newlisp-edit you could put any other path-name of a GS application
and what OS are you running and what version of Java do you have installed?

Hi Lutz,
your command with full paths to everything worked as is, cut and pasted. the editor didn't hesitate to appear.
~ $ java -version
java version "1.6.0_03"
on Arch Linux.
btw, I'll make current newlisp arch packages when I figure out how to put the "doc" directory in its new location. So far I'm stumped. I guess it's a good thing I'm the only arch user here!
