phoenix doesn't start after installing radialcontext

Post by menesis »

I have downloaded 20021110 nightly build for Linux, and installed radialcontext for phoenix from optimoz. But now Phoenix does not start at all! i.e. process exists but window is not displayed.

Are there some changes happening which break all extensions or what?

You have to change permissions of radial context jar file in /path/to/phoenix/chrome to 755 like
chmod 755 /path/to/phoenix/chrome/foo.jar.

Then try
$> chmod -R 755 /path/to/phoenix/chrome/foo.dir
Where foo.dir is the directory of Radialcontext. The -R switch tell chmod to do the permission change recursively.

Doesn't help, I'm afraid.

It's broken in all builds 20021119 to 20021204.

Installing radialcontext does not create any files which are not writeable as user.

Does anyone have any idea about this? Has anyone managed to get RadialContext working on a recent build?

still does not work

I downloaded 0.5, installed recently updated radialcontext 1.0rc3, but as previously, phoenix does not start after that. It does start ony when I disable or uninstall radialcontext extension.

Apparently its non-working depends on system, as for other people that works... but for me on Debian unstable it does not. I'm stuck with 0.4 release.

Fixed version of RadialContext available

Post by jeti »

I uploaded a new archive that should fix the problem.
Phoenix blocked under Linux because RadialContext
tried to preload nonexistent icons.

Sorry for that, Jens

Great! God job Jens!
I was about to go back to 0.4 for a while there but this makes it just fine.
