Running under Windows

Hi, guys--

I installed nodejs and Amber under Windows and Amber seems to be
confused about directory structure. And certainly I am.

I was running through the examples for HelloApp and when I tried to
commit, I got "PUT" errors. As I was trying to work it out, I saw that
my node had crashed ('Error: ENOENT, no such file or directory 'C:
\Amber\projects\hello\js\HelloApp.js').

So, I restarted and and tried again. This time the put worked, but it
put stuff in C:\Amber\js and C:\Amber\st versus C:\Amber\projects\hello
\js and C:\Amber\projects\hello\st.

So I fixed the "prefix" entry accordingly and managed to get stuff to
load. Now when I try to save new changes, however, I'm back to the PUT
errors.

Trying it under Linux to see if I can get it running there but would
like to see it working under Windows, too.

Re: Running under Windows

Did you (manually) create the js and st directories, as mentioned in the tutorial: " To get started, add a new index.html file to this folder, as well as empty js and st folders."

I don't see that in the tutorial.

But I tried that anyway, yeah. And just now I deleted the HelloApp files from the root \js and \st directories to start over, made sure the \js and \st dirs under projects\hello were empty, and still got the put errors when I committed.

I am having the exact same issues on Windows. Did you ever get it to work?

Newp. Got the same errors under Linux, though, so I guess that's "progress". Or a foolish consistency anyway.

Hi!

There may be a bug related to how path is handled. I'll have a look.

Can you report an issue on the bug tracker?

Re: Running under Windows

Hi,

I'm having the same issues with both Amber OneClick 0.9.1 and 0.9.2 on
Windows 7. Has there been a fix for it yet? If the issue is still not
reported on the bug tracker (I wasn't sure if it is related to #126 or
if that is a seperate issue?), I can add it.

I also installed Amber on my Xubuntu setup. It couldn't save my code
changes after I clicked on "commit". I think that one might be related
to #126? I'm unsure how to add the fix to my install.

Thanks,
Larry
