Arch Linux User Repository

Installed this yesterday, it works flawlessly. Once installed, jdwonloader2 update itself as on Windows with no clue or error message.

@Holodoc Don't you think that an update at this moment would be appropriate? I mean this package installs 4 year old software at first just to then update it to the recent version.

For those who failed to start the service like me at first attempt. I have to create jdownloader user and group or change user and group on jdownloader.service file.

I have a problem, I made a pkg from jdownloader and it was succefully, but when I start the program, he start to download an update and get me back this error

org.jdownloader.update.SelfUpdateException: Unexpected Selftest Result: FAILED org.jdownloader.update.lastchance.FailedException: org.appwork.updatesys.client.defaultimpl.http.NoConnectionException: Could not Connect to http://update.appwork.org/jcgi/lastchance?app=JD&pkh=12f1848a883e733ed40fffff0dae2f35&jh=24e397adb45260e313b8a7ab8d093d72&rev=-1&srev=-1&urev=-1&surev=-1&rt=ST&st=1 at org.jdownloader.update.SelfUpdateClient.validateSelfTestFile(SelfUpdateClient.java:478) at org.jdownloader.update.SelfUpdateClient.finishSelfUpdate(SelfUpdateClient.java:319) at org.jdownloader.update.UpdateManager.runFinishSelfUpdate(UpdateManager.java:917) at org.jdownloader.update.DefaultCallbackHandler.onResults(DefaultCallbackHandler.java:369) at org.jdownloader.update.UpdateManager.runUpdateLoop(UpdateManager.java:1276) at org.jdownloader.update.PendingUpdate.run(PendingUpdate.java:19) at org.jdownloader.update.UpdateManager$17.run(UpdateManager.java:1605) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:748)

Manjaro 19 KDE

UPDATE: working for me with jdk7-open jdk, with other it doesn't worked for me

I am getting an blank window when I start jdownloader2, the UI doesn't load. The right click menus seem to be working somehow. I am using bspwm and start jdownloader using rofi.

Edit:

So it was an issue with java apps where the app wouldn't render anything. It is a bug with dwm/bspwm and I fixed this by exporting a variable:

export _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1

as mentioned in this post:

and this page in the wiki:

Does not work. After installation when trying to start the service, this package results in an error:

please consider using following in systemd service file: PIDFile=~/.jd/JDownloader.pid Restart=always

its annoying to login via ssh and restart jdownloader if updates occure or JDownloader crashes..

@gambas yes it does. Works fine for me.

this is not working

I'm trying to use these archive to install JDownloader2 on my Ubuntu (I've tried to install Arch on my Odroid without success): I don't understand where the variables $srcdir and $pkgdir are defined, so please can you give me the whole structure of the installation path in order to copy the files?
