SikuliX

The Sikuli IDE closes and nothing happens on click

Asked by liliya

Hello,
I'm attempting to follow the tutorial #1 - hello world. I open Sikuli IDE, then click on "Take screenshot". The IDE closes and nothing happens. If I reopen IDE and try Ctrl+Shift+2, also nothing happens. When I click on links in "Find" menu located on teh left in the IDE, the IDE closes and nothing happens.
I'd really like to be able to go through the tutorial. Could someone please help?
I downloaded
Sikuli-X-1.0rc3 (r905)-win32
and also
sikuli-slides_windows-x64_1_5_0

I'm running windows 64-bit OS. I have java 7 installed.
Thanks a lot

I was able to create+run the hello world example after I created the screenshot on my own. But I'd still like to understand why the click events I described above result in IDE shutdown and nothing else.
Thank you.

Is there a link someone can recommend me where I could get Sikuli IDE for Windows? I seem to can't find the right stuff.
Thank a lot.

Look under the "Get It" header of RaiMan's link. You should see two buttons. Each leads to a different version of sikuli. Choose your own adventure:

1. "Stable Version 1.0.1" You probably want this. The linked page contains a download for "sikuli-setup.jar"

2. "Nightly Builds 1.1.0" The linked page contains a download for sikulixsetup-1.1.0. Currently this is the 2015-01-16 nightly build of sikuli 1.1.0. Not ready for release yet, but should be there soon. (use at your own risk)

Get one of the setup jars (stable or nightly). Put the jar in an empty folder (making a C:\Sikuli folder is a good choice). Run it. It will walk you through the installation process. During this process you will be asked if you want to install the SikulixIDE. Respond in the affirmative. Then, when the install has finished, you will have the IDE.
