Hi Henk,
no problems with NMEA-Proxy, NAVMONPC

but: my BWR does not see any GPS data.
don't know why.
"09-10 09:48: Unable to open COM2 on channel 1:
couldn't open "COM2": no such file or directory..."


Any idea ?
Regards Poco
interesting, also on a VM win 8 machine it does not work here...
Poco, your problem seems something else ?
my problem looks like a java autostart issue..

hmm, i will mess further...
ANYONE WITH SNAGS USING BRAINAID'S NMEA PROXY:

Eddie says

" What I saw on my computer: The proxy does not open, but informs me that I need to install a new Java Runtime Environment from Oracle. There where security issues with jre-1.6, so firefox disables this Java Runtime. After installing Java Runtime 1.7 the proxy opens the normal way."

I am mostly using Chrome and recently Java updated itself to Java 7 but my test-opening of Brainaid's proxy is still not working so I have told him so. I tried in IE too.

Please would anyone else with a problem post more detailed info if possible?

I don't usually use this proxy, but know how to use it.

This is what I just did, I clicked on the link, input my info to Brainaid's Toolbox, click on Navigation, then on the button which downloads the file.. then I should just click on the d/l file?

When I do so, the cursor goes "eggtimer" as if it is doing something but the NMEA window doesn't open.

Is this what you are all getting? Is anyone getting anything different?

Running Java 7 Update4 (Build 1.7.0_04-b22) on Vista
Brainaids Proxy works fine. No probs.

Poco
Poco - which browser are you using please?
Just fiddled around, but on win 7 and 8 i get the error java web start launcher fails

basically it won't start ?

Win7, latest java
Poco - which browser are you using please?
Hi RC, running Chrome for SOL, other stuff with FF. But the Java-Tool does not depend/ need a Browser.

Regards Poco
Poco - thanks.. just useful for Eddie to know where it is working as he asked me earlier what browser I was using (Chrome has built-in Java I think?)

Dikkehenk - I have let brainaid know the error message you are getting (which is more than I get)!

Every piece of information might be useful!
Hi all,

I do not have windows 7 here, so can't really test... Maybe the hints on the following web site help?

Could someone with windows 7 please verify that .jnlp is correctly associated with Java Webstart?

Thanks a lot,
Eddie

The Vineyard Race 2026


For the 16th consecutive year, our SOLers are invited to tackle this iconic 250nm overnighter. The classic route charges out through the sound, leaves Buzzards Bay Light to starboard, rounds Block Island to starboard, and heads home.

This year's weapon of choice is the Beneteau First 47.7. A proven performer since its 2012 SOL debut, this Farr-designed cruiser/racer excels at leading real and virtual handicap fleets. Success will demand sharp tactical navigation, so watch the polars closely to conquer the sound's shifting winds!

New Ice Age 2026 - Scott Base to Neumayer Station


To complete our DN circumnavigation of Antarctica and our 4-race ice-boat marathon series, we continue clockwise, now departing from Scott Base back to Neumayer Station. It’s about 3500nm back as well, which, as said if there’s wind at all, should, well-wrapped in your DN-cockpits, not take you much more than five days. And remember: charts down here are unreliable – what is land and what is ice?!

Cross the Convergence 2026 - Tenerife to Fernando de Noronha


The sixth race of our series of ocean voyages across the World’s convergence zones takes us back up the Atlantic to Tenerife, from whence we will depart on a classic transatlantic passage to Brazil’s Fernando de Noronha. It’s 2150nm as the albatross flies, but you will undoubtedly have to take some and sometimes sudden detours to get your Volvo 70v4 through the doldrums stretching across your path from the Amazon to the Niger.
