[solved] Makelangelo bat files won’t run

[Anonymous]

The newest version of the software greatly improves the start32.bat and start64.bat files.

If the software won’t run it’s probably because the bat file can’t find java.exe. Either you don’t have java installed or your java installation is corrupt because the bat file can’t find the registry key for

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavasoftJava Runtime EnvironmentCurrentVersion

Most of the time this can be solved by reinstalling Java.

If that still doesn’t work then things get more interesting.

First locate your installation of Java. I open Windows Explorer and go looking. Likely locations I’m aware of are C:Program Files (x86)Java, C:Java, C:Program FilesJava. Inside that .Java folder is a folder that starts with “jre”. In my case it was “C:Program Files (x86)Javajre7”.

Next, I used “Start > Run > regedit.exe”.

NOTE: improper use of rededit can turn your computer into a brick. Be very careful.

In regedit I navigate the left-hand tree for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoft.

If it I can’t find it then I know Java installation must be borked in some wierd way, so I have to create keys and values. Here are the list of keys and String values I would create for jre7. [keys are in brackets.] “String values are in quotes”

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment]
“CurrentVersion”=”1.7”

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREJavaSoftJava Runtime Environment1.7]
“JavaHome”=”C:\Program Files\Java\jre7”
“RuntimeLib”=”C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\client\jvm.dll”

Now you can test your start32.bat or start64.bat and it should run the program. This does not entirely fix your copy of Java but it will be good enough to run the Makelangelo software.

Hello Dan,
I using Windows and I have re-installed java a couple of times and followed the regit steps you outlined but still no success.
The Makelengelo BAT files are working fine, but Robot Arm BAT files are not.

Any further advice?

Let me see if I can update the Arm3 bat files for you. Here’s start32.bat

Thanks…I imported your 32Bat file and this is the message that I received…can you see where the problem is? The 64Bat did not work. This is the path to my java.exe…C:ProgramDataOracleJavajavapath

From what I see here, gluegen is failing to load. Unsatisfied linker error? gluegen is supposed to be in the Arm3.jar file.

It looks like it’s entirely my fault! The latest release of the Arm3 isn’t running on my dev kit, either. This is my highest priority.
