Eunice,
Please provide the exact code and error messages you are getting. Please
try to figure out whether the problem is with Protege, JessTab and/or
Jess before posting to this list.
For example, copy key portions (e.g. function names, exception names) of
the stacktrace you are getting and then try Googling for them. Often you
will find answers listed in a FAQ or in a mailing list archive. Also,
try searching the Protoge list archives/FAQ for JessTab. Rarely (if
ever?) is a Protoge/JessTab related problem due to something in Jess.
Good luck!

Well, the solution was to change the version of JessTab and Jess. Now
I use Jess 6.0b3 and JessTab1.1. However, when I run from eclipse many
errors are reported.
Can you help me?

2005/11/1, Rich Halsey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
While this reply does not deal directly with the rule under discussion, I
continue to be amazed at the approaches used to "engineer" rule-based
systems (which ultimately fail) and how little we hear from the the Olympic
geniuses who are employed by the vendors (unless you are willing to pay
$300/hr).
To me, rules engineering (at the requirements/analysis level) is a
discipline that is simple:
(1) discover the "rules" that are found/described in the textual portions of
the requirements.
(2) describe possible "information entities" that the rule's LHS uses to
test for truth and that the rule's RHS would take action with
(create/update/delete).
(3) model this information in such a way that the potential interactions
between the rules can be documented, i.e. what conditional testing by LHS
would be impacted by actions of the RHSs of other rules.
(4) elaborate on this information with a high-level "control" system to
preclude the possibility of undesirable conflicts between rules.
Ironically, much of this can be set down in an Excel spreadsheet. The
principal problem is that the merit of this approach seems to be lost on
people until they have endured multiple project failures (myself included)
and begin to look at rules engineering as something that is 180 degrees out
of phase from ordinary procedural programming - it is a radically different
paradigm that is not intuitively obvious to the uninitiated.
Once this technique becomes second nature to the rules designer, success
(and $$$$$) will follow. I offer this advice free to beginners, but as a
consultant I do not work for free.

Subject: Re: JESS: Jess error: Bad index
OK, this has been in my mail box for almost four hours and no one has
said anything - so, here goes. FIRST - don't write B I G rules !!!
Second, half of the logic is in the right hand side (AE) of the rule.
Why? Third, there is absolutely NO explanation of what the rule does or
what it is supposed to do, etc., etc. etc. Pretty much, this is written
like a lot of rules that I see every day. Rules that show a thought
process gone amok. So, break it down, think it out, make it simple, THEN
see what's wrong with the logic. Actually, what is "wrong" with the rule
is in the error message itself; apparently Jess thinks that there is a
call to a Vector in the LHS of the rule and that index 123 is a bad
index. Probably is.
On the other hand, even if you fix that part of the rule, it should still
be taken out and shot for breaking the first three guidelines mentioned
above. Anyway, it's almost midnight. Time for all good little rule boys
to be in bed. Preferably with someone else. :-)
