Broken Fiji

Hi Claudio,

I also re-updated FIJI hoping to see the welcome message (which has been

Unfortunately, the logic for *when* to display the welcome message is based
on the version of the ImageJ2 code, with the idea that the message would be
displayed the first time users updated their Fiji to include ImageJ2. So
although you have the WELCOME.md now, the actual ImageJ2 code was already
updated so it didn't know to display the welcome message. :(

 We're going to be adding an info button to the ImageJ2 options dialog to
display the welcome message again. In the mean time, you can open the
WELCOME.md in your Fiji.app directory, or view it on the web (for
example, click
here <https://github.com/imagej/imagej/blob/master/WELCOME.md> to see it on
GitHub).

Hope that helps,
Mark

Yes, this is caused by my stupid mistake of uploading WELCOME.md *after*
uploading the rc-2 of the ImageJ application (which is now just a
component making use of all the other, modular & reusable components).

Once we have an rc-3, you will see it! In the meantime, you can read it
online, of course:

Hi Johannes,
I'm so sorry to get back to you once again. Since this morning I'm having problems with the fiji updater. It first started and repeated the same download operation over and over again and once I stopped it I cannot update anymore. I get message in an updater window that says "there was a problem checking whether everything is up-to-date. Start the updater?" If I do it, I get a bootstrap.js window. I follow the instructions (i.e. run the command Evaluate Javascript) and the following log

Error: La fonction importPackage doit être appelée avec un package et non avec "[JavaClass ij]" (<Unknown source>#1) in <Unknown source> at line number 1

It's in french but it says that the function importPackage needs to be called with a package and not with JavaClass.

What happened? How can I give you more details if you need them?
Thanks
Claudio
P.S. I'm running imageJ2

I am terribly sorry about that breakage. Bugs in the updater are the
worst, because you need to somehow get a new updater version to get the
bug fix!

So I fixed it, but I'll need you to bear with me, still: the updater
version you have will still try to go into that infinite loop you
experienced. Just cancel it, restart Fiji and start the updater again.
That will break the loop.

Hopefully the new version will not have another bug yet!

Thanks for your understanding,
Johannes
