Some progress. I've found that if I first start the browser and click the
http://127.0.0.1:65001 link it says (of course) "Unable to connect". Then
if I run j64-806/bin/jhs, a new tab in the browser opens, running jhs.
The terminal window where I invoked j64-806/bin/jhs now says:

J HTTP Server - init OK

Ctrl+c here signals an interrupt to J.

Browse to: http://127.0.0.1:65001/jijx

But even if I have the browser running, the blue icon will not start
jhs, but puts up a window with that "Unable to find a shell" msg.

I see you have sent a few more messages; I see what else I can learn.

Thanks, Patrick

Sounds like the problem is when the JHS jconsole task tries to start the
browser.

First thing check is to see if the JHS jconsole task has any interesting
info (probably after you dismiss the popup).

There is a chance JHS started OK and the failure is just in launching the
browser.

Try starting your browser manually and then browsing to
localhost:65001/jijx and see if that gives you a JHS jijx session.

I recently downloaded the latest beta to my laptop which
is a Dell XPS running Ubuntu 16.04. No problems with
jconsole and with installing jqt. Here is JVERSION:
  JVERSION
Engine: j806/j64avx/linux
Beta-7: commercial/2017-10-26T15:44:00
Library: 8.06.09
Qt IDE: 1.6.1/5.3.2
Platform: Linux 64
Installer: J806 install
InstallPath: /home/tages/j64-806
Contact: www.jsoftware.com

The problem is that when I try to start jhs, either by
the jhs806 icon or by j64-806/bin/jhs, I get a pop-up
window that says "Unable to find a shell" and no connection
to my browser (firefox). Any ideas about what the problem
might be? jhs worked fine on the earlier version of 806
(which I've now overwritten) and still works (I just tried
it) on j64-805.

Thanks, Patrick
