Java3D updater broken

[arjundayal]

I am using a new installation of FIJI on OSX and as per usual when I try to launch Java3D I get a message asking me to automatically updated Java3D. Unfortunately the URL that it uses (http://132.187.25.13/java3d/j3d-1_5_2-macosx.zip) is down. I believe that the URL is hard coded in ij3d.Install_J3D.java so there is no way to modify it, unless I use a hex-editor. Please check the server that is hosting this file. Also, I think the URL should be stored in a plaintext file so that it can be easily modified without having to recompile code...

The server seems to be back up now.

Curtis

Thank you Curtis,
now that site works...
but the autoupdate of the of java3d to 1.5 stop here:
downloading http://download.java.net/media/jogl/builds/archive/jsr-231-1.1.1/jogl-1.1.1-macosx-universal.zip

with this error : "can't open connection to ... http://download.java.net/media/jogl/builds/archive/jsr-231-1.1.1/jogl-1.1.1-macosx-universal.zip"

the strange thing is that the 3dViewer works if I launch it with ImageJ 1.49b, but doesn't work using Fiji 1.49s.

-----------update----

Bad news... since the update got stucked at the middle of the process now the updater launch this error:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/media/opengl/GLCapabilitiesChooser
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClassCond(ClassLoader.java:637)
        at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:621)
        at java.security.SecureClassLoader.defineClass(SecureClassLoader.java:141)
        at java.net.URLClassLoader.defineClass(URLClassLoader.java:283)
        at java.net.URLClassLoader.access$000(URLClassLoader.java:58)
....

And I think that it has a problem with the  JOGL but I don't know...
Thank you,
Emanuele

Strange, that URL is working for me. Maybe you have firewall issues.
Perhaps it will work if you simply try again from a different network.

Unfortunately, the ImageJ team does not control the servers used by the 3D
Viewer to install Java 3D 1.5 (132.187.25.13).

Later this summer, we plan to update the 3D Viewer to use a newer and less
problematic version of Java 3D; see:

  https://github.com/imagej/imagej/issues/120

Such an update will prevent issues of this nature from happening again.

Curtis

Hi Emanuele,

Hmm - like Curtis, the URL works for me - and my Fiji was able to update to
Java 3D 1.5.

>the strange thing is that the 3dViewer works if I launch it with ImageJ
1.49b, but doesn't work using Fiji 1.49s.

That is strange. My only thought was that maybe they are launching with
different JVMs. If the Java version in the status bar[1] is different, that
could be it.. in which case launching Fiji with the working Java[2] may fix
things.

Best,
Mark

Thank you all,
I don't know if it was a problem of java of what else...
but I resolved uninstalling fiji and re-updating 3D viewer and all of the connection and urls went well.
Have a nice day,
Emanuele Martini
