Ok, it does seem to work now - sorry I hadn't thought of that as such - my bad...<smile>
Can now try it out. Stay well Jacob Kruger Blind Biker Skype: BlindZA '...fate had broken his body, but not his spirit...'----- Original Message ----- From: "Andreas Stefik" <stefika@xxxxxxxxx>

Hey folks, I'm exhausted after a long day of work, but if you can't get the installer to work, use the sodbeans.zip download instead. We put that file up there specifically because we knew some folks would have trouble with the installer. With the zip file, just open sodbeans\bin\ and load sodbeans from the command line, or make a shortcut, or whatever else you would like to do. We have tested it on 20 machines and haven't had trouble, so long as the Java SDK is installed, but your mileage may vary. If you have trouble, let us know and we'll look into it. My team has also deployed several critical issues that are related to Sodbeans. Fixes are automatically deployed and can be accessed under the help menu where it says "Check for Updates." We're also hoping to deploy an additional fix related to some menu keys magically disappearing tomorrow. We have a fix in the trunk, but want to do some more testing before it goes out to the deployment servers.

If I capture a screenshot, and run OCR on it, it seems there is a next button, but can't get to it/activate it at all.

I tried a combination of screen readers NVDA and a new one called Cobra but to no avail. I can click thedownload button, but nothing happens, not even my download manager comes up. When I got the link to download again it told me the product didn't exist.Please help? Many thanks.

I'm almost leaving for the airport, but I'll have one of the programmers look into this issue carefully tomorrow and see if we can come up with a better deployment solution than making you folks go through this crazy process.

Another thing to try would be in the folder you installed it (usually program files), go to sodbeans\etc\sodbeans.conf In that file there is a variable called jdk_home. If you set that variable to the path of your JDK install, does it still die? I'm heading on a plane to Washington State today, but we'll see if we can't reproduce this on the machines at the school on Sunday and try to figure out what to do about it. I'll have one of the programmers not going to Washington (We left one person on support duty) try to reproduce and fix this issue as well. Sorry about the growing pains, guys.
