Beta 1.6d available--please try

Hi Greg

Yes, I have plenty of space - 40GB on C: drive and 75GB on D: and E: (partitioned). I am running Windows 98, with 256 MB.

on mac osx limewire 1.6d has the following error:
com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.main could not be loaded.

hope you fix that soon....

No, nothing appears in the grid window that's supposed to show hosts it's connected to or is trying to connect to.

I tried the experiment. Still nothing shows up in the grid window. That is, the Add button has no effect.

We just tried the 1.6d installer on our OS/X machine and it worked just fine. Are you positive you downloaded the whole thing? Did you run it by double-clicking? Did the error message contain "Main" or "main"? (Case matters here.) Any other information you can offer?

hi chris, i've downloaded it three times with different browsers on Macosx, it's still a no go. I ran it by double clicking it. The error message is "Main".
I got an imac 400mhz 320 ram and osx ver.10.0.4.

I also had the same problem with LimeWire 1.6d for OS X. I decided to open the package contents, and under Contents/Resources I noticed that a line in MRJApp.properties was different in the beta than the 1.6b release. The line:

com.apple.mrj.application.classpath=/Users/limewire/Desktop/LimeWire6d/LimeWire.jar:/Users/limewire/Desktop/LimeWire6d/collections.jar

should be:

com.apple.mrj.application.classpath=Contents/Resources/Java/LimeWire.jar:Contents/Resources/Java/collections.jar

Everything worked after making that change. There was another line that was different:
com.apple.mrj.application.main=a.a.a.b.Main
is now
com.apple.mrj.application.main=com.limegroup.gnute lla.gui.Main

but I think that's how it should be. The line I changed; however, definitely seems to be the issue as it gives the path to the jar files and everything appears to work after making the change.

Oh, and one more thing. I tried posting this under my registration (iammanta), but it said I didn't have permission to post. I can post fine as Unregistered though. Interesting....

Hope this helps.

actually my id is themanta

Did you confirm your e-mail address be clicking on the link in the e-mail that vBulletin sent you?

No I didn't as I had not checked my e-mail since registering and I was automatically logged into the site. It appears everything is working now that I have. Thanks for the info.

As for LimeWire 1.6d, everything seems to work since I made the change I noted previously; however the occasional crash on startup seems to have returned. I didn't have the problem under 1.6b, but I'm having it now. Other than that, no issues.

Macos x limewire 1.6d problem is fixed!

thanks themanta, it did the trick...
i wonder why limewire group hadn't found this issue before?
