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.

Best Regards,
George

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?


Thanks,
George

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.

Best Regards,
George

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,
