The initial installation steps may require a System Administrator to install
and configure the software. Once the variables are set and verified, you
can run NeXtMidas on your own.
All path names, user names and directories used in NeXtMidas cannot
contain any spaces. (This is keeps NeXtMidas on Windows compatible
with its Unix counterparts.)
NeXtMidas will not run correctly on Windows if there are spaces in the Java
installation pathname.
Java must be installed in a path that contains no spaces. The
default installation path for Java usually looks like this:
c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_04 -> this is BAD
To ensure Java is installed without spaces in the pathname, select a
Custom (instead of Typical) installation. Install Java in a directory
with no spaces in the name. Most users choose to install under
c:\java\
c:\java\jdk1.5.0_04 -> this is GOOD
Don't Make This Mistake:
Java must be installed in a path that contains NO SPACES for NeXtMidas to work correctly.
