Hi,
for a bit more than a year, I used Freenet (discontinuously but
regularly), without problems on Mac PPC Tiger.
Now, I updated my old machine to an iMac-Intel, and, trying to follow
the advices, downloaded the last "Freenet.jnlp", but, even if it arrived
correctly on my desk, it doesn't start the install, neither
automatically, nor by double-clicking it.
So, continuing to follow the instructions, and since the first steps
didn't work, I went to Linux instructions, and entered in Terminal the
commands how they are given to DL the new install jar.
wget http://freenet.googlecode.com/files/new_installer_offline_1222.jar
-O new_installer_offline.jar
java -jar new_installer_offline.jar
It didn't work... so, I extracted the first part of it (URL) and Dlded
it by hand with FireFox.
I must say that I still am a bit bepuzzled with the content of it, that
doesn't seem to ressemble the sort of packages to be installed through
Terminal... no file called "install" nor "istall info", giving the steps
to follow… nor file in it looking somehow a bit alive (.sh, .jar,
.exec...) so, I tried anyway to follow the commands given in the tut,
but it didn't work either...
What exactly happened after you typed "java -jar new_installer_offline.jar" ?
What error message did you see? What version of Java do you have installed on the Mac?
Freenet needs Java 1.5 now, some versions of OS/X might have 1.4?
Next thing, since I'm on mac-Intel, I tried to install it on the xp pro
side of my computer...
It downloaded OK, and installed fine (there is already i2p working fine
on this xp), but now, and after few hours, it doesn't seem to be able to
connect to nodes... I opened the proper holes in the router from my
modem, and it didn't managed either... (I choosed *normal *at all
security levels, meaning that it could connect to unknowns), and also
gave momentaryly my IP (bybassing proxy)... besides this, I don't think
that for this xp pro there is any firewall... have to investigate though
to see if my mac Firewall works for it (really don't think so, neither
LittleSnitch)...
This is very strange. If you go to Status and then to "Connections to Strangers", there are no connections?
Are there any nodes listed as "disconnected", "busy", "backed off", etc?
Can you post your wrapper.log? (File in the dir Freenet is installed into)
I must say however that I would very much prefer to have freenet
installed and working on Leopard, not fearing then any virus and such
problems with it... I know, if XP would get infected I would only have
to reinstall it... since I don't keep much folders in it... (at the
beginnig, I'd try to see if, been on Mac, it would be protected from
such attacs and infections, and, just for the experiment went to a site
where I new to find bugs, and... ;-) … well I had to reinstall it...
so now, I'm being a bit careful.
Next thing, if I can't find proper solutions, would be to install
Freenet on the linux part of my OS (there is already stealthnet on
Kubuntu, working fine) and this has anyway, like mac, the Unix security
level...
I'd be grateful for a little advice... thanks.

What exactly happened after you typed "java -jar new_installer_offline.jar" ? What error message did you see?
Well, here is what Terminal had to say (first DLed the file manually
with FireFox at the given link, then did a cd to its place, and then
entered one after the other the lines of command
iMac-de-leo:~ leo$ cd /Volumes/Perso/new_installer_offline_1222 -O
new_installer_offline.jar
iMac-de-leo:new_installer_offline_1222 leo$ java -jar
new_installer_offline.jar
Unable to access jarfile new_installer_offline.jar
iMac-de-leo:new_installer_offline_1222 leo$
What version of Java do you have installed on the Mac? Freenet needs Java 1.5
now, some versions of OS/X might have 1.4?
My version of java is the latest (I think it is now 1.6) I verified the
update a month ago, and Leopard (10.5.6) anyway gets for it the
automatic update if needed.
If you go to Status and then to "Connections to Strangers", there are no connections? Are there any nodes
listed as "disconnected", "busy", "backed off", etc?
Going now to the xp pro side of my Mac-Intel, when I open freenet (here,
it is completely installed),
looking in "status/connection to strangers" shows (0/0/0/0/0/0)
strangers connected to node id|XXXXXXXXXXXXX
And I couldn't see any indication of disconnected nor busy nor backed
off node.
But, there is always a message at the messages page saying:
Freenet didn't succeed to determine your external IP address (or the IP
address of your NAT router or firewall). You can however exchange
references with other people, but it will only work if those people are
not behind a NAT or a firewall. As soon as you'll be connected to
someone, Freenet will be able to determine your external IP address. You
can determine your self your IP address and complete your in your
configuration : "present IP address". It'd be wise to open ports 26130
and 43743 (UDP) in your routers configuration to ease the connexions to
your node.
There is a second message that finishes with:
......We sent 0 announces, from what 0 are still acting, and added 0
node (0 node did refuse to connect). We are actually connected to 0
seednodes et are trying to connect to 18 others.
This is a quick English translation.
Of course, the install of Freenet seems to be in a bit better condition
on this part of my machine, but (even if I wish to make it work as well,
just for the principle of it) I would certainly much prefer to have it
working on Leopard, since I mostly use the xp for helping friends out
that can't sometimes manage in doing something on their windows, or also
to be able to open exe files that are unreadable on Mac otherwise).
