awesome-wm opens webstorm menus in seperate dialog in the top left - awesome-wm

Somehow, when I run webstorm in Awesome-wm, the file menus open in seperate dialogs with the title "win32", but the submenus are unreachable, because they open in the top left, rather than where the cursor is at that moment.
Is anyone familiar with this behaviour or knows some sort of fix to it? Would be greatly appreciated!

This most likely is related to the JavaRuntime. There is a bug report #Jetbrains about this behaviour:
https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JRE-709
Switching the boot jdk from the built-in Jetbrains JDK to OpenJDK should help. If not already done, install OpenJDK. In the IDE press ctrl-shift-A and enter "Switch Boot JDK". In the dialog, select openjdk, then restart the IDE. After installing openjdk you might have to reboot first to have openjdk available in the dialog.
More about it here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/switching-boot-jdk.html

MAMP icon unresponsive, unable to open

I have just installed MAMP in Windows 10 alongside my class so that we can begin to work with Wordpress. However, the installed icon, and the app itself within my 'start' search function is unresponsive. I always get this popup: "To run this application, you must install .NET Core." The Popup has MAMP.exe in the corner. I did the recommended download at x64, and got confirmation that it was installed, but I got no result. Any time I try to click on the MAMP icon on my desktop, I get that message. I made sure my Skype was off, I checked if I had multiple Apache installations (I saw none except a years-old one in an archived folder) and I restarted my computer but to no avail. I wonder if there is an issue with the path or the browser -- .NET Core was done with Edge, MAMP was done with Chrome. This is mysterious. If anyone has advice on what to try, much appreciated.
I found the answer! Download x86 version of .NET Core and then install it afterward no matter how old your computer is. I did that and it works perfectly now.

Trouble with SceneBuilder 8.5.0 in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

I am having a problem running Gluon SceneBuilder 8.5.0 in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. I am presently using Java 8, and have downloaded and installed the latest 64-bit deb. I have also downloaded the executable jar and used that with the java -jar command in a terminal window, but the problem described below occurs whether the program is run from the installed shortcut or from the terminal.
I start SceneBuilder empty (with no project file open). I can click through the various menus (File, View, Insert, Modify, Arrange, Preview, Window, Help) with no difficulty, and use the available functions in those menus.
However, as soon as I click the Edit menu, SceneBuilder freezes. After about 15 seconds, the SceneBuilder window darkens, and then returns (to normal brightness) after about 15 seconds. From the point of clicking the Edit menu and while the window is darkened, the entire computer is frozen. When the SceneBuilder window returns, the computer is usable. After several of these cycles, the Edit menu will appear. Clicking the Edit menu again causes the SceneBuilder window to go dark and not return. The only option at this point is to click the X in the corner of the SceneBuilder window to force quit the program.
If I open a file with SceneBuilder, basically the same thing happens, I can use the menus (except for Edit). However, if I click on any objects, like a button or container, the freezing cycle described above starts.
According to Help>About Scene Builder, there should a log file created in /tmp, but I don't find one there. My java version is shown below:
java version "1.8.0_191"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_191-b12)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.191-b12, mixed mode)
Any ideas what is going on? Obviously, SceneBuilder is not usable like this.
Thanks!
Apparently something in the system (Java VM perhaps) became corrupted. Just for the hec of it, I rebooted the PC, and SceneBuilder is working much better now!

Xcode 8 Simulator crash

I recently downloaded the Xcode 8 beta. When I try to open the simulator, it gets stuck on the black Apple screen and I get a crash message for "SpringBoard".
Any ideas? I'm happy to edit if I left out anything.
Thanks in advance!
This is a known issue that is mentioned in the release notes and is related to issues in the download and install process. If you don't follow the installation instructions exactly, you can trip over this issue.
The workaround is rather straight forward:
Using Finder, copy (DON'T MOVE) Xcode-beta.app from /Applications to ~/Desktop
Delete /Applications/Xcode-beta.app
Move Xcode-beta.app from Desktop back to /Applications
I had a similar problem which, with a bit of googling, I managed to solve as it happened with the Xcode 6 Betas too. First of all, make sure that your Xcode-Beta.app is in the Application folder of your computer. Then go Xcode -> Preferences -> Locations. In "Command Line Tools" you will probably find that you have Xcode 7 selected. This is a problem that occurs with having 2 Xcode versions installed. Change it to Xcode 8.
After this, the simulators were still broken for me, so I went to Xcode -> Window -> Devices and delete all of the simulators. Then try a full reboot of your computer. Reopen the devices page and add in the simulators that you would like, and then right click on the Xcode app in your dock, and go "Open Developer Tool -> Simulator". Check that it now boots correctly. If its working so far, then you should be good to run your application. Otherwise try yet another reboot, just to make sure Xcode is refreshed.
Hopefully this solves your problem like it did mine, let me know if not.
SpringBoard failed to launch application with error: 0
If you get above issue make your simulator active window and follow step showed below in picture..
Note : It will delete all app from simulator..

external program not on run menu

The 'External Program' option has disappeared from my Run menu. I think it happened after my last software update of Aptana studio 3.
Does anybody have any hints?

Installing subclipse on Aptana Studio 3 fails

I'm trying to install subclipse 1.6.x onto Aptana Studio 3 (build 3.0.7.201112151935). It isn't working cause once I've clicked that I accept the licence agreements the finish button doesn't light up.
I've tried rolling back the configuration history, closing and reopening and installing 1.8.x. 1.8.x worked once, but isn't compatible with my SVN repo so that's no use.
Any guesses/solutions?
Thanks in advance
Rob
There is a bug in Eclipse where the Finish button does not show up. It was fixed, but maybe Aptana is not using the latest version. I seem to recall you could click Back and then Next and the button would enable.
Here are some Eclipse bugs on this:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=136907
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=149300
For me I found that there were sub-packages which couldn't be installed.
Bad Components:
Mylyn
Revision graph
These were identified as bad on the sub-components selection screen, however, when this is done, and the licenses are accepted, the "Finish" button does not get highlighted.
I Found that if you remove this bad components on the initial "Available Software" screen (and not on the sub-componets selection screen) and continue, that you the "Finish" button gets highlighted and you can proceed with installation.
