Hi Eva, Did you download the Ptolemy sources and rebuild? This is necessary to create the .class files. The Windows installer includes jar files which require setting the path to include those jar files. Setting the classpath to include the jar files is more complex than setting the classpath to use the .class files directly. Under any platform (Windows, Linux etc.) you can build the .class files which makes setting the CLASSPATH easier.
See "How do I invoke Ptolemy II" at http://ptolemy.eecs.berkeley.edu/ptolemyII/ptIIfaq.htm#invoking%20Ptolemy%20II? How are you starting up Ptolemy? If you are using $PTII/bin/vergil, then try $PTII/bin/vergil -v It will show you the CLASSPATH that is being used by vergil. Does $PTII/ptolemy/vergil/VergilApplication.class exist? If not, then you need to build Ptolemy, see $PTII/doc/install.htm The short answer is setenv PTII /usr/local/src/ptII6.0.2 cd "$PTII" ./configure make Ptolemy II does work with jar files and it does work with jar files with spaces in them. There are issues with applets and spaces, see $PTII/doc/troubleshooting.htm This issue may have been fixed. For more information about the classpath, see http://java.about.com/od/tutorials/ss/SetClasspath.htm Getting Tinyos and Viptos to work can be tricky, I suggest you work from the version of Tinyos that is on the Viptos website. We are providing limited support for Viptos, in part because of the complexity of the interface. _Christopher Christopher Brooks (cxh at eecs berkeley edu) University of California Chess Executive Director US Mail: 337 Cory Hall #1774 Programmer/Analyst Chess/Ptolemy/Trust Berkeley, CA 94720-1774 ph: 510.643.9841 fax:510.642.2718 (office: 400A Cory) home: (F-Tu) 707.665.0131 (W-F) 510.655.5480 -------- Hello everybody. I am new to the list. I 've been trying to make vergil run for a week now. I run Ubuntu 7.10. My Java version is : java version "1.6.0_03" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_03-b05, mixed mode, sharing) What is more, some environmental variables are: 1. setenv PATH = /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/j ava-6-sun/bin 3. setenv PTII /usr/local/src/ptII6.0.2 4. setenv CLASSPATH /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.03/jre/lib Either with CLASSPATH or without it, I get the error: "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: ptolemy/vergil/Vergil Application". I 've googled it a lot... They say it is a known bug, try not to run jars,. .. no spaces in front... The problem is that I am stuck here for more than a week and I do not find something akin to a solution. I am trying to run PTOLEMY-VIPTOS. I have also tried on Solaris 10, but I have problems there installing sourc e of tinyos-2.x, while I have installed tinyos-2.x on Suse and ubuntu. I would be grateful if I had a work around for ptolemy-viptos on ubuntu.
