[ 0.9.11 ] jUniUploader -- Mark II

Postby aegnor » Thu Jun 07, 2007 6:28 pm

omg sry! i use some strange java version
Code: Select all
java version "1.4.2"
gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu5)


i'm gonna install java6 from sun. i think then it will run.

EDIT: yeeeeeha! now it's running :D thx! (java 6) :thumright:

if i start it with java 5 it's still crashing as you said

I have an additional request :) If i use linux, "cleaning up unknown files" makes some addons to update every time. also is "guildmap" (the only "required" addon) always updating. and would it be possible to check automatically if the server supports gzip? :)

sry ^^ again a question... is it possible to deploy configs? (i upload the webstart file to our homepage server)

Fixed in 0.9.12, along with a few issues with the console window. The program should be usable in Java 1.5 again.

Heh; people actually use GNU Java?

Anyway! About your questions.

"cleaning up unknown files" makes some addons to update every time.
-> Can you tell me which addons? Also, I'd like your UniAdmin URL so that I can test this out and find the exact problem.

also is "guildmap" (the only "required" addon) always updating
-> Will check that too once I have your UniAdmin URL.

and would it be possible to check automatically if the server supports gzip?
-> Just turn on the checkbox ;) The server will use GZIP if it supports it, and ignore the setting (revert to the normal method) if it doesn't. There's really no harm done either way.

is it possible to deploy configs? (i upload the webstart file to our homepage server)
-> What you can do with WebStart, is manually download my JNLP file (instead of clicking the image to run jUU, right-click it and select "Save target as ..."). Then, once you have jUniUploader.jnlp downloaded, open it up in your text editor (notepad/vim/exim/nano/pico/whatever you use), and replace the entry I put in it for "uniadmin" by your own UniAdmin URL. jUniUploader will then use that uniadmin URL to fetch its default settings. Then you simply upload that JNLP file to your own webserver and get your guildies to click a link to your JNLP file, on your guild's webserver. There's a thread in this forum about it too, in case you run into trouble (there's a chance you may need to do a little extra work to set up your webserver correctly).

Use your UniAdmin for that purpose ;)

I personally don't favor GZip since I look at it as a waste of CPU cycles =)

oh lol ^^ EVIL uniadmin reinstall ^^ i thought its set to true :(

my files are ~800 kb ... (characterprofiler.lua) ... guild infos from 350 chars and char infos from 9 chars or so ^^ ... so gzip make it REALLY faster ^^

(we have 10k down rate here but only a 300 up :( )

EDIT: OMG AM I STUPID! note to myself: nexttime i ask something just have a look what you download. it's a simple xml ... :D i love it

Heh. Anyway, I fixed that bug you were experiencing with addons not installing properly. Tell me whether you're having any more problems now?

It was caused by addon ZIP files having totally mangled pathnames (using stuff like GuildMap/Libs\whatever/something -- totally random choice of / and \, wtf were they thinking anyway?)

Also, applying UniAdmin setting for GZip wasn't implemented yet; I quickly added it too.

Remember that changes to your UniAdmin settings only work as defaults. If you've already been using jUU, any later changes to your UniAdmin settings will only be visible to new users of jUU or if you delete your config file. That way everybody starts off with the default UniAdmin settings but can still change things to suit their own needs.

Postby aegnor » Thu Jun 07, 2007 9:19 pm

:) are there more options which can be set in the xml file?
i would love "color" (to make a nice look with the guild header from our forum :D)


EDIT: ah cool :) thank you!
i will ask some guild members to check it out this evening :D
And I hope i can supply a German lang file.

EDIT 2: Is there a trick to make the windows movable for windows users too? on my linux i can simply move it around by pressing ALT. but on windows is no such function.

I can add that feature ;) You can probably expect it in 0.9.13.

And I hope i can supply a German lang file.

That would be nice. The more languages the better!

As a matter of fact, there IS a trick. ;)
Just hold your right mouse button down on the jUniUploader frame and drag it around.

No, the rightclick-drag thing is something I added because I removed the titlebar.

People should stop dragging things around by their titlebar and learn to set a drag hotkey like Alt anyways!

In any case.. I'd forgotten a tiny detail that might have made your guildmap addon be marked for updating again each time, but I quickly fixed that too now.

By the way, if an addon's marked for update, you can hover over the part that says [ADDON UPD] and it'll show you a list of files that need updating! ;)

nice :) good to know ... when i "release" the jUU i'ts gonna be fun ... last time i release UU i was supporting the guild members about 1 week till the most of them got everything to work (.net is evil ^^)
jUU will have less problems since it is simpler -> more time for WOW and translating jUU. ;D

Edit: choosing the language would be nice too in the .jnlp

Lanaguage choice is implemented by UniAdmin's settings ;)

The JNLP setting of UniAdmin is really only there because it obviously can't get the UniAdmin sync url FROM UniAdmin ... duh. And I've added a "theme" option to the JNLP file too, only because UniAdmin doesn't support the THEME setting.


Anyway, 0.9.13 released; a few bugs with the UI locking itself up have been fixed, silly me. I've added your default theme request as well.

PS. Let me know what you think of jUU's progress by casting a vote on this thread's poll!
