Unable to run Sikuli Java project from Maven test command

What Sikuli version?

Sikuli Version 1.0.1

add this JVM runtime option
-Dsikuli.Debug=3

to hopefully see some enlightening debug output.

I enabled the option and this the output for the first click event:

Still unable to figure out what's wrong. Hope you can help me.
Thanks.

It seems that the image is not found (CtrlAltDelScreen.png)

Could you paste some code snippet?

if (window.exists(imageOf("CtrlAltDelScreen")) != null){
     System.out.println("CtrlAltDel screen exists...");
            window.click(imageOf("sendCtrlAltDelBtn"));
}

where "window" is

if(App.focus("TightVNC")) == null){
 System.out.println("Opening the VNC viewer");
 App.open(prop.vncViewer + " -host=" + prop.testMachine);
 window = App.focusedWindow();
}

and imageOf gives the location of image file

*** System.out.println("CtrlAltDel screen exists...");
… is not processed I guess (cannot see the message in the output in comment #4)

if it is a timing problem: increase waiting time

if (window.exists(imageOf("CtrlAltDelScreen"), 10) != null){
     System.out.println("CtrlAltDel screen exists...");
            window.click(imageOf("sendCtrlAltDelBtn"));
}

and add a message to be clear:

if (window.exists(imageOf("CtrlAltDelScreen")) != null){
     System.out.println("CtrlAltDel screen exists...");
            window.click(imageOf("sendCtrlAltDelBtn"));
} else {
         System.out.println("CtrlAltDel screen did not appear...");
}

BTW: you could use

Debug.user("some message %s", variable) (internally String.format() is used)

to get log messages nice and easy even with time stamps.

these are the relevant settings: Settings. …

  public static boolean UserLogs = true;
  public static String UserLogPrefix = "user";
  public static boolean UserLogTime = true;

Thanks for the pointers about logging, really appreciate it.

But the problem persists...

When run from Eclipse :

CtrlAltDel screen does not exist

By the way, I have added only "sikuli-java" as a dependency jar in the project, do I need any other sikuli related jars.?

sorry the second entry should read of course

@comment #8
the image CtrlAltDelScreen.png is not visible for Sikuli in the Maven case.
….

Thanks RaiMan, that solved my question.

The issue was right in front of my eyes, being printed multiple times, but I didn't see it and wouldn't have either, until you pointed it out. Thanks Raiman, really appreciate your help.

And ya.. Sikuli rocks ;-)

thanks for kind feedback.
