Yes, it is new stable branch. This does not mean that it is bug free of course

Not yet. We moving existing documentation into wiki and then will start to expand and correct it. It already contains some information about new functions, but not for all.

There are two options:
1) When installing WebUI, select "JRE" option in installer
2) Install JRE from Oracle: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre-7u3-download-1501631.html

Hi

I did ofcource opt to install the JRE inviroment but it doesn't work im installing on windows 2008 r2 on a vmware host

i have now tried to install the JRE from oracle but still no luck

Finally got it to work, i was missing the JAVA_HOME path in my system settings for the OS

hi victor,

i must say that i would prefer to have a help file rather then have to go to the internet all the time.
will there be a way to download a structured file from this wiki pages ?

Double checked it on clean Windows VM - there was bug installer.
Updated version will be available in next couple of minutes - it will fix requirement for JAVA_HOME (it's deprecated on Windows and should be used)

Not right now - but we plan to make PDF out of user manual in Wiki.
I'll try to make pdf version available later this week.

hi alex,

thank you very much.
how often will this pdf file be updated ?
when this wiki site will contain everything including the new functions and nxsl code for 1.2.0 ?
can we receive an announcement every time the wiki site and the pdf file got updated ? maybe version manage it meaning that every version that gets out will include a file with the version in it's name containing the latest changes ?
for example: wiki_1.2.0.pdf
every question that i ask via the form and i get an answer that is not mentioned in the help file i keep as a .mht file,i want to get to a level that this wiki site and the file will include things like the syntax for performance counter or wmi query so i want have to save anymore.
i know i am asking for a lot but bare in mind that this will help expand the usage of this truly awesome application.

Best Regards,
Lindeamon

hi,
