Missing Java cRIO image

Hello everyone
We’re trying to re-image our 2012 cRIO with this year’s 2013-v47 image. The only problem? We don’t have the image for Java.

We can open the imaging tool and connect to the cRIO just fine. We even have the 2013-v47 LabVIEW image. However, when we select “Java” from the dropdown, we only see a 2012 and a 2011 version.

I’m fairly sure our Netbeans plugins are up-to-date.

Can someone upload the .zip file or tell us how to get it?

The image appeared for me after installing the Netbeans plugins. Try rebooting if you believe you have already installed the Netbeans plugins?

Did you install the utilities update? Are you using the 2013 imaging tool? What is in the C:\Users<username>\sunspotfrcsdk\cRIO_Images directory? What version of the plugins do you have installed? They should be 2013.0.407

The LabVIEW image zip file is the same as the Java image zip file, the imaging tool just looks for it in different locations.

You will only get the cRIO Images once you install the plugins. The Image tool looks for the {user root}/sunspotfrcsdk/crio_images folder. If you dont have the plugins you can download the 2013 sunspotfrcsdk folder from my team website. In there you will find the latest java cRIO image.

Simply unzip, place in the proper location and the imaging tool should pick it up.

I installed everything detailed here.
C:\Users<username>\sunspotfrcsdk\cRIO_Images contains FRC_2013_v47.zip.

That’s odd :confused: The plugins are also up-to-date.

Ii believe my laptop may be searching for the plugins in the wrong location is there any way to see where it is searching at.

Here is an article that shows where the Imaging Tool looks for the cRIO images for C++ and Java. Can you verify that you have those directories?

I did some playing around with the computer and it works now.

To anyone else who has this problem, we ran into it yesterday and eventually figured out that the update center URL changed and we had inadvertently been using the old set of plugins. The one in the 2013 documentation has the URL to the correct update.xml that installs the cRIO image properly.

Ours is currently:
http://first.wpi.edu/FRC/java/netbeans/update/Release/updates.xml

Is that the correct one? We have this issue & I’m wondering if this is the problem.

Yes, that is the correct update URL. What were the results of the other troubleshooting steps in this thread?

Computer has already been re-booted many times

Yes, yes, the 2011 & 2012 images. Plugins are version… oh… They’re the 2012 versions? Do I need to fully uninstall netbeans too then, because I uninstalled the old plugins then installed the new ones. Plus shouldn’t this have auto updated? weird…

Fixed the problem. Backed up the sunspot folder, deleted it & all of the FRC plugins. Then manually downloaded all of plugins from here and followed these instructions.

Image is now there! Thanks for the help guys
