Phex Troubleshooting ReportPhex will not run on Mac OX 10.3 - Version: 2.8.6.95, 4/28/2007 04:44AM PST

sdavidpringle
As speculated by a previous poster the new Phex will not run on Mac OS X. Older versions still do, however. The 2.8 versions of Phex do work.

Java's slogan was "write once run anywhere." The slogan doesn't ring true for the new versions of Java for you can only download jre's for 4 platforms.

Phex Usage TipProbably not compatible with 10.3.9 or earlier - Version: 3.0.2.100, 3/23/2007 02:27PM PST

The VT page currently says this program works with 10.0 thru 10.3.9, but that seems unlikely. According to the download page, Phex 3.0 requires "Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE) 1.5," also known as J2SE 5.0. At present, Apple has only released that version of Java for 10.4 Tiger. See: http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2110.html#TABLES. Therefore Phex probably can't run on pre-Tiger systems.
