10jbp1042 Posted June 15, 2020 Posted June 15, 2020 Used to work when I did the following: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install oracle-java8-installer Now it appears that this repo is no longer supported. Can anyone help Please? And also, I know there is a way to launch the Osbot.jar on the Desktop? What is the command to put into the Terminal for this again? Thx guys
SatyrOSRS Posted June 15, 2020 Posted June 15, 2020 I had this same issue. What fixed it for me (and seemingly others) was using Ubuntu 14/16. OSBot will not launch correctly on newer versions even if you used Java 1.8
10jbp1042 Posted June 15, 2020 Author Posted June 15, 2020 okay i will try that. thanks. i am using ubuntu 20.04 LTS currently. now gonna try to switch to one of the 16 versions. doing the code above should work over there?
Nbacon Posted June 15, 2020 Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) I use Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS with openjdk Just had to make it my make it my main for when i use osbot with sudo update-alternatives --config java Edited June 15, 2020 by Nbacon
10jbp1042 Posted June 15, 2020 Author Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) Okay it works now. I had to revert to Ubuntu 16.04 and then I installed the jdk 8 headless via the terminal. Then to run it, i downloaded osbot.jar from the website and then moved it to the desktop. I run the terminal and type java -jar "OSBot.jar" [renamed it to OSBot.jar instead of leaving 2.5.83 or whatever the ending was.] Edited June 15, 2020 by 10jbp1042
