ORIPA

Wow, that is strange-I have never had that problem, but there are certainly still bugs in the program-maybe I am just lucky. Do you have the latest version? I have found Inkscape to be very secretive about its updates.

Yes I do (0.46)
I think the problem is related to the fact that maybe Inkscape is a soft made for linux (like sodipodi) and then adapted for windows. But I don't so sure about that.

The very problem is that when it closes I get a message that inform me that the program will be closed without making the automatic backup copy

What browser are you using when trying to download it? I had to use Internet Explorer-Firefox wouldn't work. I also had to change it from a .zip to a .jar file when saving it.

OrigamiGianluca · Post by **OrigamiGianluca** » January 3rd, 2009, 4:18 pm

Since ORIPA is a .jar file, the browser "thinks" that it is a java application (such as many interactive menus are arount in the web) and so it opens it instead of downloading it.
This is in my opinion a not so little mistake from ORIPA developer(s), that should have forseen this problem.

Anyway, the "right click technique" it's the correct way to get it

I've had no problems with FireFox

Well, I was going through firefox, so I guess I will go through Internet Explorer; thanks again for all the help that you guys have given me

I feel so loved

For some reason my computer does not want to open oripa... on windows vista or XP. I did get it to save as a Jar file, had it set to open with java, etc. etc. but the fact is when I click on the file in my computer, clearly indicating that I'm trying to open it, nothing happens!
People have mentioned using command prompt. Do you just put in "oripa034.jar" and it runs? When I do that it says "this is not a document or executable file on this computer"
This jar is hard to open!!

Click on Start, choose Run, Write cmd
Move to the directory where Oripa is stored (use cd.. and cd commands)
Type: java -jar oripa034.jar
enter

I have downloaded those 2 programs that are necessary to run ORIPA, java3d 1.5.1 and jre6 update 17, and i use google chrome and windows 7, but it won't work.
I've read through this entire topic, tried those commands in the command prompt, and i get this type of errror: "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/vecmath/Tuple2d"
and when i try to run that jar file from the directory, (i have already associated with the adequate java app) nothing happens.
Any experiences in windows 7?

I'm using Google Chrome, I've installed JRE and Java 3D, but it still won't work. I tried downloading it by right clicking, and by double clicking, but it won't let me download it as a .jar file. It will either save as a .zip or a .txt, but it won't even let me change it to .jar. Any help?
