Hello

I'm having trouble with tokentool on windows 7 (I'm using windows 7 starter on a new dell netbook).

Downloaded tokentool along with the newest java.
Reinstalled java.
Restarted the PC alot of times in the process.

Any chance of having it working?

Works 100% for me on Win7.

You haven't said what you are trying or what you see when you try it.

I'm just trying to open it! doubleklicking the file, nothing happends! At all

Sounds like your Java install is broken; it probably didn't update the PATH correctly.

Search the forum for Phergus' post regarding how to fix this.

Open what? There isn't a file called "it" in the TokenTool zip distribution.

After you download the TokenTool zip file and extract it you should have one .jar file and a folder called lib. You don't care about lib except that it is there and has files in it.

The .jar file should be called tokentool-1.0.b28.jar and should display a little icon of the Sun/Oracle Java logo.



If it doesn't your Java install is bad. Uninstall all versions of Java. Reboot. Then reinstall the 32-bit version of Java. Try again.

I'm having a similar problem. Files have extracted as Phergus describes, I double click the sun/java icon, I see a flash of script appear (way too quick to see what it is) then nothing. I've reinstalled java twice now but still nothing... any ideas. Maptool works fine.

open up a cmd prompt, and run the .jar file from there.
start-->in search box type:
goto the install directory (use and to get there)
when your in the directory type:

this time you'll see what is says. post the error message here.

edit: if you want to use copy paste, e.g. cd <paste the whole directory path> you can do that in the command prompt with a right mouse click and then click paste.

Thanks to wolph42 for the techtips. This is my error message:

So, anyone with any ideas on this one (see above)?

Well... given that it appears you are starting this from a command line, you did it wrong. You can't directly start a java program from the command line like that when it resides in a jar file. You MUST call it with the jave executable name, followed by -jar (to tell the java executable that you are starting from a jar file), followed by the jar file name, so, starting from a bar command prompt:
