Starting the software from CLI

Step 1

Ensure you have Java installed and operative.

• Go: Start->Run.
• Type "cmd" and press ENTER. A black window will open.
• Type:

java -version

You'll see, what version of Java you have (if any). The required version is 1.5. Version 1.4 is not good for EACTS Software.

Wrong version of Java: Java 1.4 is too old.

Correct version of Java: Java 1.5.

If you don't have Java 1.5, please go to http://www.java.com and install Java 1.5. Go to Step 1 to verify.

• If you have Java 1.4, uninstall it and install Java 1.5. Then go to Step 1.
• If you have Java 1.5, go to Step 2

Step 2

• Go to the download page
• Download the Eacts-7.0.10.jar file.

Step 3

• Move the file Eacts-7.0.10.jar to the C:\ directory.

Step 4

• Go: Start->Run
• Type "cmd" and press ENTER. A black window will open.
• Type:

c:
cd \
dir

• If you don't see Eacts-7.0.10.jar on the list, go to the Step 3.
• If you do see Eacts-7.0.10.jar on the list, go to Step 5.

Step 5

• Type:

javaw -jar Eacts-7.0.10.jar

The application will start. Your session should look like this:

Launching Eacts-7.0.10.jar in command-line.

If you can run the software only in this way, write yourself a *.bat file that will allow you to launch the software by double-clicking.
