[Ifolder-dev] ifolder client doesn't work on windows server 2003
I successfully installed and use the iFolder client on multiple windows XP machines and an openSUSE 10.3 machine, but for some reason I can't get it working on windows server 2003 machines. The installation finishes successfully, but when I launch the client the splash screen appears for several minutes and then the application crashes with the following error: Title: Unable to Start iFolder Services Description: A software error is preventing iFolder from initializing. Please contact your system administrator. Details: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. I tried uninstalling the client, removing all references to ifolder and simias (both on the filesystem and in the registry) and then reinstalling the client, but that didn't help. I also installed on several other windows server 2003 systems (without previous ifolder installs), some already had .Net framework v2, some had no .Net framework at all (and thus use the .net runtime that comes with the client). I even tried setting the compatibility mode of ifolderapp.exe and simias.exeto windows xp. It must be something specific to windows server 2003, but I have no idea what it can be. On MSDN I found a list of fixes in windows server 2003 SP1, which indicates several issues related to Object Reference not set to an instance of an object were fixed. But my windows server 2003 systems have SP1 (and one has SP2) Oh, and I'm using the 3.6 client that comes with novel OES2 (My server runs the latest build from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dl9pf/openSUSE_10.2/ but that doesn't matter, because the client doesn't even come to the point where it should connect with the server) ___ ifolder-dev mailing list ifolder-dev@forge.novell.com http://forge.novell.com/mailman/listinfo/ifolder-dev
[Ifolder-dev] Building simias without libflaim.a
Hello folks, I'm currently getting iFolder into Fedora! Yay! Except I've hit a problem. Boo... Namely, g++: /usr/lib/libflaim.a: No such file or directory Now when I build flaim with the static archive it builds fine however static archives cannot be included in Fedora. What is the configuration process to disable building against libflaim.a?

Novell iFolder 3.6 Win client does not support Win 2k3 server. It only supports Win 2k Professional and Win XP.

Re: [Ifolder-dev] ifolder client doesn't work on windows server 2003
Any idea when an updated windows client will be available then ? It was promised a long time ago that a vista compatible (and I suppose also 2k3 compatible) client was coming (cfr http://www.novell.com/coolblogs/?p=969) The 2.1.x client can be used on Vista with a workaround according to this post https://secure-support.novell.com/KanisaPlatform/Publishing/94/3404609_f.SAL_Public.html But it isn't compatible with a 3.6 server as far as I know. Also, can you give some details why it doesn't work on w2k3 ? Is 2k3 so different from XP (for getting a .net application running on it) ?

Re: [Ifolder-dev] windows client
Bump. Other Ideas: * create project on sf.net and upload windows client. * make a self-extracting, splitted-in-2-files archive (rar ? ) Jan-Simon Am Dienstag 13 November 2007 16:56:02 schrieb Balakrishnan KalIdas: Novell iFolder 3.6 Win client is around 63 Meg. ForgeFTP.novell.com allows only 50M per file. Jan-Simon, is there any other repository I can upload to? Justin? The wiki site is down, I have raised a ticket and the team is looking at the server, we must have is up any time.
