Every time I try to run the GR 1.0.1 installer it immediately crashes. I've re-downloaded the installer file a number of times, from different mirrors, with no change. Console log says:

Jun 19 10:09:08 AEW WindowServer[534]: ERROR! execle(/Users/aew/Desktop/InstallGalleryRemote.app/Contents/MacOS/InstallGalleryRemote) returned, err=22

Any insights?

Unfortunately, I don't have access to a Mac, so I can't test the installer (we use Zero G's InstallAnywhere).

Does the Java installer work (InstallGalleryRemote.jar)? You can run the Java installer by typing

Quote:
java -jar InstallGalleryRemote.jar

Running the .jar file brought up a functioning installer--although the installer still behaved a little oddly.

If I tried to select a target folder other than the one the installer selects for me, ALL the buttons on the installer interface greyed out, and that was the end of the game. I had to quit out and restart it and let it install where it wanted to.

I ran the .jar file using

Quote:
java -cp GalleryRemote.jar com.gallery.GalleryRemote.GalleryRemote

as per the readme, and the app starts up--but with enough buggy behavior that I'm going to go back to the old version.

(Specifically: the username/password boxes are invisible--although they work if you type into where they should be; the "select album" pull-down generates its menu along the top edge of the screen)

Wow, that's strange!

For the reference of other MacOS X users, what's the version of the OS you're using, and the Java version?

Sorry for the long long delay. Back now. For the record, I'm using OSX 10.2.6, with whatever the built-in Java build is that goes with that.

I see that there's a 1.1 beta available. I'll give that a shot and see if it's any more successful.
