Re: [oXygen-user] v 9.2 acting flaky
Hi Rob, This behavior is configurable through a Java system property passed in the command line. You need to edit the oxygen.sh script to specify multiple instances to false, see also the comment in the oxygen.sh script about that: # Set multiple instances to false if you want to have a single running instance of Oxygen when # repeatedly starting oxygen.sh. In this way you can open files by typing: # oxygen.sh File.xml # The files will be opened in the first editor instance, will not create other processes. # java -Xss512k -Xmx256m\ "-Dcom.oxygenxml.editor.plugins.dir=$OXYGEN_HOME/plugins"\ -Dcom.oxygenxml.MultipleInstances=true\ -cp "$CP" ro.sync.exml.Oxygen "$@" If you use the executable to open oXygen then you need to make sure the multiple instances is not set to true in the oxygen.vmoptions file.

Hi Robert,
We will try to reproduce the installation issue following the steps you described. Can you try also running with the oxygen.sh script to get the default Java rather than the one that comes with oXygen, to see if the slow down is caused by the JVM?
So far so good starting with the shell script. Everything is fast and I have not seen any problems.
One issue: I set the ubuntu file manager (Nautilus) for XML/XSL/etc to 'Open With' the shell script. But this causes a new instance of oXygen for each file opened. Is there an option I can use to to have the files open in the existing oxygen instance?

I deleted the default /opt/Oxygen9 install and installed it under my home folder and so far I have not lost the ability to use my keyboard (yes, I lost all keying ability in oxygen, every other open app worked fine).
I originally installed with sudo:
$ sudo sh ./oxygen.sh
I let it install to the default (/opt/Oxygen9). I de-selected the options for TEI, DITA and docbook in the installer. It failed to create the shortcut for my desktop.
When closing oxygen, I got errors saying it could not write to the oxygen tmp dir for (if I remember correctly) dita, tei and docbook.
Everything seems to be working fine now after I installed under my home folder (which I think should be the default anyway). But, working in oxygen seems much slower than before I upgraded. I have restarted my machine - it has 2 gigs of memory and dual 1.66 processors. (I don't have any swap space in use)
I am using Ubuntu 8.04 with the default Compiz and the Appearance preference set to the Normal option.

Hi Rob,
Can you try starting oXygen with the startup script:
sh oxygen.sh
That should use the default Java installation from your machine. Let us know if you still have issues.

Hi,
Is it just me or is version 9.2 acting strangely? I keep losing the ability to use the keyboard for things like cut and paste.
I am on Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon (8.x with the latest updates). I have java 1.6.05 installed. I noticed in the install that oxygen cam bundled with this JVM as well(??).
rkoberg:$ java -version java version "1.6.0_05" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_05-b13) Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode)

Thanks, I even found this well documented bit of information myself :) Just as an update, I have been running the 9.2 version with no problems starting from oxygen.sh since my last note. I am loving the new editing functionality where you edit the start tag name and the end tag adjusts to match - very nice! thanks, -Rob On Mon, 2008-05-12 at 09:07 +0300, George Cristian Bina wrote:

Hello Robert, There was a problem with the Java look and feel set by the launcher created by the Linux installer of Oxygen. When Compiz was running the look and feel was set to Motif in the AWT_TOOLKIT variable but this look and feel does not work well with Compiz. We disabled that setting in the launcher, we repackaged the Linux installer and we uploaded it to the Download page. Please download and install the new Linux kit package. The Oxygen build number is the same but the MD5 sum has changed: http://www.oxygenxml.com/InstData/Editor/Linux/VM/oxygen.sh Regards, Sorin Robert Koberg wrote:
