Can't start xdman

Support AUR
1

Hi
I installed xdman through software center from AUR after installation xdman won’t start. Also try to start through terminal with no luck

Welcome to the forum! :wink:

xdman won’t work as a standalone application; it’s a browser extension. Fire up your favorite browser, bring up its extension settings and see whether it’s enabled there. :wink:

Yes I know but it won’t start. Don’t know if I have the right java installed

The PKGBUILD should normally pull in the right dependencies.

Are you getting any error messages when you try that?

actually, it does have a GUI @Aragorn
and this is what happens (for me) when I start it from the terminal:

xdman                                                            ✔

at this point the GUI appears, after a few seconds delay

I don’t know much about that thing or how it is properly used.
I just installed it to help some guy who had problems with it:

Probleme mit XDMAN

The whole thread is in german, though.

The gist of it is:
I just installed it - it pulled it’s java dependency - and it just started and worked, for me.
As of now, for the other guy as well in the end, apparently.

It requires java-runtime>=11. It runs for me with jre-openjdk (provides java-runtime=15)

What Java version(s) do you have installed and which is default? You can check with:

archlinux-java status

See Java - ArchWiki
