Explv Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) How to fix OSBot when it won't start 1. Confirm you have Java 8 installed: - Open the command prompt (CMD) in windows or terminal in Mac OS / Linux - Type java -version - The output shoudld contain java version "1.8.XXX" where XXX is some number e.g. java version "1.8.0_65" - If this output does not appear, or you have a different version of Java installed go to the link http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/download and install the latest Java 8 JRE 2. Confirm java will open OSBot: Windows: Open notepad and copy the following code: cd C:/Users/%username% for /f "delims=" %%x in ('dir /s /od /b OSBot*.jar') do set recent=%%x java -jar "%recent%" echo %recent% pause Save the file as osbot.bat with file type set to All files Run the .bat file and OSBot should open. Linux / Mac OS: Run the following command in a terminal and OSBot should open. find ~/ -name "OSBot*.jar" -print0 | xargs -0 ls -t | head -n 1 | xargs -I{} java -jar {} 3. If OSBot opens using the above commands, try running this software, it will attempt to fix your .jar file, allowing you to open it by double clicking. http://johann.loefflmann.net/downloads/jarfix.exe Edited December 18, 2017 by Explv 18 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomynho Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I actually had this kind of issue, when I couldn't start OSBot at all. It turns out, I had Java 7 instead of 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
