MIOSStudio in linux not working

MIDIbox Tools & MIOS Studio

hallo

I am not able to have MIOSStudio working in linux (ubuntu studio)

this is what i get

Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from MIOSStudio.jar
2

Was that a question or a statement :wink:

  1. Open the jar using some zip-utility.

  2. Open the folder “META-INF”

  3. Open the file “MANIFEST.MF”

  4. Remove the spaces after the “:”

  5. Remove all empty lines (there’s one at the end)

  6. Save the file and put the zip/jar back together

That worked for me.

3

still a blank window

(i am not so lucky tonight uh?)

4

Apparently what fixed the problem for me has given other people trouble, so adding the empty line appears to be a good idea on a lot of systems :wink:

today i get a different output from the command line:

It is a mis-pronounced version of “fucking”, from the movie Johnny Dangerously where Roman Moronie used to butcher the English language.

You fargin icehole, I’m going to put your bells in a sling.

Bastard. Originally used in the 1984 movie Johnny Dangerously. This PG flick introduced bastage, fargin’, and icehole as PG terms for similar sounding words.

You fargin’ bastages!

i don t think this sepo guy has anything to do with “ours”

now seriously i tried to remove the Java Runtime environment offered by the synaptics installer in ubuntu and reinstall the official Java package but with no success yet to run MIOSStudio.

I will probably go for a fresh reinstall on UbuntuStudio to get rid of *000s of packages i wanted to test.. it may help

I hereby dissociate myself from any fargin business you may come across in the www - i’m not fargin, i won’t ever, and I won’t in any case express myself in public on any farg I might conduct in spite of my above claim :wink:

Heheheh

FWIW, fargin is way older than that. I’ve read it in books from WWII. Aussies often say ‘fark’ or ‘farkin’…because…well that’s how it sounds when we say the naughty word. Bewdie bonza, mate!
