Installation problem...   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #32 of 55 |
Good morning,

Superb image of M27 by Rick on APOD ! Congratulation. (that's where I
got the link to What's Up)

I have just downloaded What's Up and installed it on my home PC (P4,
Windows XP). I never had such a weird problem before... All installed
OK but when I start the application, What's Up come up (!) and a
window pop up asking me to locate the file Objects.csv. In fact the
file is in the ...\What_up directory along with the cities.csv file
but it just does not see it! At that point, What's up freezes and I
have to kill the application. I have been able to open the
Objects.csv file with Excel. I have tried installing in a different
directory with the same result.

Have anybody experienced such a behavior before? Better, has anobody
a solution to this problem?

I am puzzled...

Robert

P.S.: I installed What's up on my laptop and it works like a charm!
