"RapidMiner 4.5 installation problems (Was: RapidMiner 4.5)"

Shubha

Hi,

I was fascinated with Rapid Miner 4.5 and its features. Thanks for the new version. I wanted to install this version (after uninstalling the older 4.4) and downloaded the EXE file. The EXE file ran without any errors. But later, when I try to OPEN Rapid Miner, this doesn't happen.Why is this?

Thanks in advance,
Shubha

Hi,

I assume by running the EXE you mean running the installer, so the insatallation worked but you cannot run RapidMiner, right? I guess you do that by clicking the RM icon on your desktop or in your start menu. Could you go to your RapidMiner installation directory and run RapidMiner.exe from the command line? Please let me know what you see if you do that.

Best,
Simon

Hi Simon,

Thanks for the reply....

Since I uninstalled RM 4.5 again and installed RM 4.4, I cannot right now give the exact output of running RM in commandline. But, I remember that I tried it when 4.5 was installed today.

The error was something like: "Cannot open some files....OR...Cannot find some paths.... ", unlike the 4.4.which opens the RM Window. I will post the exact output, once I am done with installing 4.5 again...

Thank you,
Shubha

Thank you,

Hi,

as alternative, can you try to run this command from your RapidMiner installation directory on the command prompt:

  jre\bin\java.exe -jar lib\rapidminer.jar

and tell us what the output is?

Best,

Hi,

\RapidMiner\jre\bin
trying to start java.exe, an error appears:
---------------------------
C:\Program Files\Rapid-I\RapidMiner\jre\bin\java.exe
---------------------------
C:\Program Files\Rapid-I\RapidMiner\jre\bin\java.exe is not a Win32 application.

ОК

Hi Aprila,
it seems to me, you downloaded the 64 bit version and using a 32 bit windows. Please download the appropriate version of rapid miner for your operating system.
