Running Clojure Box in Windows 7 - ide

Has anyone had a problem running Clojure Box in Windows 7?
I am trying to run a fresh install of Clojure Box on a fresh install of Windows 7 Professional (64 bit). Java version on system is 1.6.0_16.
emacs starts up but produces the following error messages:
Warning (initialization): An error occurred while loading `~/.emacs':
File error: Searching for program, no such file or directory, java
As a newbie at emacs, slime, swank, paredit, Clojure and Clojure Box, I'm not even sure where to start. I can't even find `~/.emacs'
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Is the directory you installed Java to on your PATH?

I also got the same error by not having Java installed at all prior to installing Clojure Box. It'd be nice if the installer checked for Java's presence and PATH-belonging. Once Java was installed, Clojure Box was working correctly.

You may create .emacs file yourself. See this answer.

One gotcha is that there is a emulation of the 32 bit process on the 64 bit version of Windows so you need to add java files to C:\Windows\SysWOW64 even if you have it in C:\Windows\System32 folder.

What is the reason for intellij IDEA for not launching (Failed to load JVM DLL)?

On my computer (64 bit operating system, x64 based processor) I installed Amazon Correto JDK 11 (for 64 bit) and IntelliJ IDEA. it was working till today without any issues. But now I can not open my Intellij IDEA. In fact it is not even launching.
I checked the environment variables and path reference of Java. It is all set. But when I double click on Intellij IDEA it is showing loading sign for a moment but it is not launching. I tried to run the same by going to it's directory and by using cmd. But still it is not launching. When I try to open the 32-bit version I get an error, but I know it is obvious, because I am using a JDK version for 64 bit. I want to know why my Intellij IDEA is not launching. Even after downloading the appropriate Java version and setting up the path correctly. There were no issues till today. I tried reinstalling my Java and Intellij. Still the issue is there. If anyone can help, please let me know the reason.
You are trying to run 32-bit idea.exe while your default JDK points to 64-bit JDK, hence the problem. Please use idea64.exe instead that will run on the bundled JetBrains Runtime.
In case idea64.exe also fails, please run using idea.bat inside cmd.exe to see if there any errors logged in the console.
Perform the steps from this document if the issue is caused by some plug-in or corrupted options.

Task could not find "AxImp.exe" using the SdkToolsPath under Ubuntu Linux with Mono project and Rider

I have a .NET Framework (not .NET Core) C# Selenium project. It works under Windows 8.1/10.
I recently installed Rider in my new Ubuntu 18.04 instance. I installed Mono project using this guide but Rider shows 2 problems, after opening it up:
15:01 Project 'selenium_IALB' load finished with warnings: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
15:01 Project 'MICE' load finished with warnings: Task could not find "AxImp.exe" using the SdkToolsPath "/usr/lib/mono/4.5/" or the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\NETFXSDK\4.7.1\WinSDK-NetFx40Tools-x86". Make sure the SdkToolsPath is set and the tool exists in the correct processor specific location under the SdkToolsPath and that the Microsoft Windows SDK is installed at (2686:5)
I found few questions answered here of how to resolve that problem on Windows for example but it says to install Windows SDK... which is not allowed on Ubuntu i guess (as i found).
As it is shown on the screen below, i have problems with some classes (yellow warning sign). In code it looks like they are missing.
The question is if it is normal that i have that "AxImp.exe" problem under Ubuntu and if yes, how can i solve it? It also does not work on Linux Mint.
EDIT: I resolved the issue of missing reference to those "yellow signed" classes. I've just change their names in the solution folder (ie. helpers.cs -> Helpers.cs). However, missing "AxImp.exe" file is still a problem and the solution does not compile.

Error during Gnat Ada compiler installing

I'm trying to install GNAT Compiler for Ada programing, but when I launch it I get the following error: "Cannot create config directory C:/users/##$%##%##/.gps/ Exiting...".
Somebody knows the solution?
I try all kind of things, nothing helped.
Thanks
I have Cygwin installed on Windows XP, with GPS from GNAT GPL 2012.
If I have %HOME% set to C:\cygwin\users\%USERNAME% and start GPS for the first time, GPS says that it created the configuration directory C:\cygwin\users\simon\.gps. If I don't set %HOME%, GPS creates the configuration directory C:\Documents and Settings\Simon, which appears to be %HOMEPATH%. Note that GPS isn't aware of Cygwin, it's a Windows application and uses your Windows environment variables.
I wonder whether you have %HOME% (or perhaps %HOMEPATH%?) set to a nonexistent directory? GPS doesn't seem to be able to create intermediate directories.
I am not an Ada wiz but I remember that I tried to install Gnat GPS with Cygwin as well and had all sorts of problems. One of the biggest was the 64/32 bit incompatibility since Gnat on Windows is only available in the 32 bit version and Cygwin is probably in the 64 bit version on your machine
In the end my solution was to remove Cygwin completely and install Mingw32, which is the system Ada uses.

Salesforce IDE starting error

I have installed the standalone IDE for salesforce force.com platform. On trying to start the ide i am getting "JVM terminated. Exit Code=-1" error. Any idea what this error code means ?
This is a common loading error for force.com IDE.
There are different solutions. Try anyone of these:
A) Change the workspace location.
OR
B) (i). Install Eclipse 3.6 for Java Developers (Helios) from the link http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/eclipse-ide-java-developers/heliossr2
Click your operating system from the window on your right.
(ii). Using the below link, follow the instructions to install Force.com IDE plugin for Eclipse 3.6 http://wiki.developerforce.com/page/Force.com_IDE_Installation_for_Eclipse_3.6
OR
C) In the default Force.com IDE install directory:
C:\Program Files\salesforce.com\Force.com IDE
Locate the config file:
forceide
And comment out the following at the end of the file (note the leading #):
#-vmargs
#-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
#-Xms256m
#-Xmx1024m
#-XX:PermSize=128M
#-XX:MaxPermSize=512M
I hope it works now.
Cheers!
This could be because of various reasons. Say, if you do not have enough memory (RAM) as specified in config file(forceide.ini). As said in this link Force.com IDE – JVM terminated , probably reduce MaxPermSize in config file to say 256M and check.
This exact thing happened to me a few days ago.
My setup is:
Windows 7 64 bit
jre7 64 bit
Force.com IDE 64 bit
When I ran the java auto update to update my jre it installed the 32 bit version (a whole other gripe). So I manually downloaded the 64 bit version of the jre installed it over the top of the 32 bit version and the IDE started working again.

running .net(mono) application in both linux and windows

I have created a c# application in ubuntu using monodevelop. It is running well in ubuntu.
I tried to run that application(firstgtk.exe file created after running in ubuntu)in windows.But it showing error message.How can i make to portable in both linux and windows?
The error message is:
when i click the firstgtk.exe file, a command prompt has come.It is blank. At the same moment microsoft message(send Error report or don't send):
firstgtk has encountered a problem and needs to close.
When i click don't send button, command prompt and message box are gone.
Mono compiles down to CIL code and is completely portable to .NET or Mono on other platforms. I can compile my C# code on a Mac and run the resulting EXE on Linux or Windows under either .NET or Mono.
Without the actual error message we can only guess the issue here. That said, in my experience, the most common reasons an application written in Mono on Linux/UNIX would create an error on Windows are pathnames with platform specific path separators or case sensitivity issues. The Windows file system is not case sensitive but they are on Linux/UNIX.
Another possibility is that you are using Mono on one platform and trying to run it on .NET on the other. Mono ships with a number of libraries that are not present in .NET on Windows.
Actually, I guess a final possibility is that GTK# is a common way to produce GUI code on Mono. GTK# relies on the GTK+ C library being present which is very common on Linux but unlikely on Windows unless it has been explicitly installed.
We really need to know what the error message was.
If you're using Gtk#, your app is portable between Windows and Linux. My guess is that you don't have Gtk# installed correctly (or at all?) on Windows. You can download from here. As of this time the latest version is 2.12.10.
Your code should be portable between Linux and Windows. Alas, the binaries are not. ...
Edit: As commenters have pointed out, Mono does produce and use PE executables, though other issues may limit portability.
