After 8.2.1 Servoy is not working (also previous versions)

Classic Servoy
1

After installing version 8.2.1 on MacOS High Sierra Servoy is woking no more, also previous versions. I can start it, it loads the starting page but then it freezes and I have to force quit it. Suspecting a Java issue i completely removed the previous installation of Java and installed a new one. I tried both Java 8 and 9 with no success. Reinstalled also Servoy but the problem persisted. I really don’t know what went wrong. In case someone wanted to look into the issue I also enclose the log file. Thanks.

Hi Rioba,

Upgrading macOS usually means it removes the Java 6 that you might had installed. Servoy used to still require it even though it reports it uses Java 7/8.
As far as I know Servoy fixed that issue but perhaps this is what is biting you.
You can download Java 6 from Apple here.

Hope this helps

Thank you Robert for your reply. I also suspected the problem could be linked to Java 6 missing. But after installing JRE 8 if I checked the Java version using ```
java -version

Hi Rioba,

When Servoy is frozen, is de admin page via the browser working?
If yes, please post the result of the thread dump here.

Same problem

Servoy server is running but can’t connect to the admin page

‘cannot decode raw data’ (NSURLErrorDomain:-1015)

Also with a systems that use JDK 1.8, it works fine with osx sierra

This does seem to be a problem with the java version, it is hanging in a native apple java call.
Note that Servoy 8.2 requires java 7.

On the admin page you can see the jvm used

this is a problem with zlib native lib that was updated and that java uses.
you need to turn of compression in the server.xml of your application server.

I also mentioned this in other post, servoy doesn’t need java6. that it ask for java6 is an installation problem of your java on your system
Servoy 8.x can’t even run on java6 anymore at all.
