Sorry, Eric.  I don't know if it's a feature of the previously faulty Windows version,  but I tried deleting j.dll.old,  and was told it was in use by JQt, although Task Manager showed no sign of JQt or j.dll!  BUT I was able to change its name (j.dll.older ) , restarted J 903,
and ran update successfully !

Now I get -
CHECKING OLD DEFINITIONS

   JVERSION
Engine: j903/j64avx2/windows
Beta-d: commercial/2021-02-04T10:15:00
Library: 9.03.01
Qt IDE: 1.9.2/5.12.10(5.12.10)
Platform: Win 64
Installer: J903 install
InstallPath: c:/d/j903-beta
Contact: www.jsoftware.com
   load'rot'
not found: C:/users/mike_/rot
|file name error: script
|       0!:0 y[4!:55<'y'
   load'rot'
not found: C:/users/mike_/rot
|file name error: script
|       0!:0 y[4!:55<'y'
   load'rot'
not found: C:/users/mike_/rot
|file name error: script
|       0!:0 y[4!:55<'y'

so that's ok!

Thanks for the help,

Mike

Sounds like another J session was in the way. Be sure all J's are closed
and then start j903 and try again.

I always forget how to upgrade,  so I usually use my own update verb,
pretty sophisticated,  as you can see:

     update
3 : 0
     load'pacman'
     'upgrade' jpkg 'jengine'
)

This happened:

     update''
upgrade failed - ferase j.dll.old - exit all J sessions and try again

Any thoughts before I do what it says?

Thanks,

Mike

Setting up a new win10 development/test machine led to an error in
building
windows j903-beta-d. Some of the latest changes were not included.

The build has been redone and uploaded. The crash on the second load of
rubbish is fixed.

Get the latest with:

start J903
     load'pacman'
     'upgrade'jpkg'jengine'

***
Check JVERSION or 9!:14'' to verify that your windows j903-beta-d was
built
on Feb 4 and not on Feb 3.

Thanks.

I've updated to beta-d.
Having had a bit of trouble with crashing on loading errors,  I find
that
      load'noname'    NB. just after firing up JQt

correctly reports 'not found: ..../noname' on the first attempt,

but crashes J903 beta-d on the second attempt.

OK in J902.

This is in Windows 10.

Cheers,

Mike

903-beta-d is available for windows/linux/macos.

If you already run J903-beta, then upgrade is easy:
      load'pacman'
      'upgrade'jpkg'' NB. ensure base library and addons are current
      'upgrade'jpkg'jengine'

If you have not yet installed J903-beta, time to get started!
