Hello

there are still some problems with collanos running on Vista!
When starting the computer an error message comes up (see attachment).
The same happens if I try to start collanos normally. Again I have to start it "as administrator" toherwise it wo0t work properly!

Hello, just to for Vista users:

Vista users have to run the installation as administrator (right click the installation exe file and slect "run as administrator" from the context menu) AND the first time running the application!
If you try to run the appplicationthe first time as "normal user" (even if your account has admin rights) you'll get an erreor message. After running the first time as administrator afterwards everything works out fine.

Cheers, Roland

PS: Thanks for all the development! Looks pretty good so far!

Hi Gil,

i've just sent you an email concerning next esting phase.
I would arreciate some guidance on what is to be tested specifically.
Maybe you xan give us some tasks to be done to test what you're implementing and did change.

Sorry folks, it seems i'm not the first to talk about cals. i've just seen the http://community.collanos.com/index.php/topic,513.0.html feature request.

cheers, roland

Despite the trouble with installation on vista (which in the end was successful) i'm very glad to have evrything running now. So far we did't see any other issues but we have to go through a bit more testing.

one thing is quite obvious to me: a calendar would be a great feature very much appreciated!
If you could provide a simple common calendar which we could use to set common dates and in the second run with a function to see the times free, blocked, away from other members ... 

what you think?

regards, roland

When testing the new version, can i take part in workplaces where other users are using version 1?

Regards, Roland

Installation trouble were persinstent on my Vista pc! During the whole installation procedure different error messages occured. To install within Vista you have to perform a) the installation setup and b) the first time program launch both "run as administrator"!!

Then after first launch, everything seems to work out normal.

Cheers, Roland

installation is running if i use the "run as administrator" option!. right-click the setup.exe and then it works. Now testing really begins!

Cheers, Roland

I would have liked to say something positive, but i could not install this version on my vista pc.

this is the error message:

greetings, roland

Danke für die prompte Antwort.

Ich werde demnach auf die nächste Version warten, wo laut Blog http://blog.collanos.com/index.php/2007/03/01/glimpsing-into-the-future-of-collanos/ ja wahrscheinlich auch einige entscheidene Verbesserungen drin sein werden.

Ich freue mich auf die neue Version

Hi everybody

ich habe mir collanos jetzt mal in realität anschauen wollen, nachedm ich von der Idee echt begeistert bin.
Auf einem Notebook mit Vista wollte ich installieren!

Es tritt jedoch eine Fehlermeldung auf im setup:

An exception of type java.lang.NullPointerException occured when instantiating com.collanos.installer.SaveDataScress: null

Was ist da falsch? Liegt das an Vista, collanos oder an java?
Can anybody help?

Grüsse aus der Schweiz
