Hi Cristian,

Well, somewhere, Alexis is shaking his head. ;-) He did, after all, warn us about this...


Please try the following:
1. Check that the file "C:\Users\User\Desktop\OpenSPIM.app\mm\win32\mmgr_dal_Cobolt.dll" exists (it probably does).
2. Send a new CoreLog (from a day when this error was encountered) to me.
3. Download a new, 32-bit version of Micro-Manager from the website[1] and install it.
4. Copy the file "C:\Program Files\Micro-Manager 1.4\mmgr_dal_Cobolt.dll" [2] to "C:\Users\User\Desktop\OpenSPIM.app\mm\win32\" (and overwrite the file that exists there).
5. Try launching the software again. If it still fails, send me yet another CoreLog.


Thanks again, and I'm sorry for the trouble!
Luke


P.S. Please use reply-all, to keep the mailing list CC'd. :-)

The file seems to indicate that a necessary JAR file is missing for OME-TIFF output -- the most likely candidate is OpenSPIM.app/jars/bio-formats/formats-api-5.0.0.jar (the latest version available through the Fiji Updater).

Our plugin does not currently come with Micro-Manager, so if you download Micro-Manager's latest version from their website, you won't be able to control an OpenSPIM. The Fiji updater, on the other hand, downloads newer versions of the files OpenSPIM relies on.
