cgoban locks up on keyboard since last update

flutenic · Post by **flutenic** » Wed Dec 03, 2014 7:25 am

Ever since the last client update, cgoban locks up after I try to use the keyboard, only to be resolved by killing the client and logging in again. When using the web server there's no problem, but I seem to remember I can't save files that way. I'm on OSX Mavericks. Any suggestions on what I can change on my system to make the client working again (apart from upgrading to Yosemite, I'm not ready to do that yet because of other applications that would not work anymore :-(

( ).

Having also a mac running on Mavericks, I can say that monday the client worked fine. Did not try after that, and now I'm away from that computer, so I can't test.

I suggest going in Utilities : Disk utilities and repair disk permissions.

If it does'nt work, then delete your application and re-download.

Also doing latest Java updates might help.

Keep us posted if any of that works

I have Mavericks and latest version, and cgoban is working fine here. Try running the jar from command line (I got used to this to get sound before the fix.)

Code: Select all

wget http://files.gokgs.com/javaBin/cgoban.jar
java -jar cgoban.jar

Thanks for the replies. Repairing disk permissions didn't help. But the hint on running the jar-file directly made me realise that I didn't see a jar-file since the update. So I downloaded cgoban-nfa.jar directly, and that seems to work. No need to run it from the command line, just starting the jar-file instead of the jnlp-file was enough.

Thanks for helping me resolve this so quickly!
