Hi,
I apologize for asking such a basic question, but hopefully the answer will
be easy. I have installed the standalone OpenMRS on a desktop and a laptop
successfully in the past week so I do know a small bit about it, but now I
am having problems when trying on someone else’s laptop. I downloaded, and
after extracting all files from the Zip folder, saw that the
“openmrs-standalone” file was of type “WinRAR archive” instead of
“Executable Jar File”. So I realized that the laptop didn’t have Java and
installed Java (v8) and also checked the Windows version which is Windows
10 Home. I also restarted the computer just in case it mattered. Now when I
right click on “openmrs-standalone” and Open with Java ™ Platform SE
binary, nothing happens whatsoever. There is no error message.
Does anyone know what is going on and what I should do?
Thank you.
This one (copied from https://openmrs.org/download/):
Reference Application 2.7.0
Standalone Edition
292.2 MB at sourceforge.net · Released 20-Dec-2017
Linux, Mac OS X, Windows · Release Notes
Recommended for new people exploring OpenMRS. A self-contained ZIP archive that includes an embedded database and application server, as well the option to install demo data for sample patients. Expand the ZIP archive and run the .jar file to start the Reference Application. Log in with username: admin, password: Admin123.
I don’t have this laptop with me now, unfortunately, but I will try your suggestion tomorrow afternoon when I have access again.
Will let you know, thank you!
