9The following are some common problems and officially proposed solutions.
10
11<h2>Problems using the Modelica perspective</h2>
12<p><i>Problem: You have problems switching to the Modelica perspective, or have
13problems with using any of the Modelica views.</i></p>
14<p>Solution: Make sure that you have Java 5.0 (aka 1.5) installed on your
15system. If you get an error message that says "Unsupported major.minor version
1649.0" then that is a strong indication that you have an old version of Java.</p>
17
18<h2>An error message reporting that a compatibility problem when communicating
19with OMC has occured</h2>
20<p><i>Problem: <img src="pix/compatibility_error_dialog.png"></i></p>
21<p>Solution: Make sure that you have a correct version of OMC installed. See
22<a href="http://www.ida.liu.se/~pelab/modelica/OpenModelica/MDT/">
23http://www.ida.liu.se/~pelab/modelica/OpenModelica/MDT/</a> for information
24about the currently supported OMC version.</p>
25
26<h2>You are sure that you have the right version of OMC but there are still
27problems</h2>
28<p><i>Problem: This problem can arise if you have upgraded OMC but an old version
29of OMC is still running in the background.</i></p>
30<p>Solution: Terminate all OMC processes. They're typically named after the OMC
31binary, i.e. omc.exe or omc. If the problem persists, as a last resort, restart
32your computer.</p>
33
34<h2>Other strange errors happen when using MDT</h2>
35<p><i>Problem: If you, for example, can choose from two different Modelica
36perspectives when choosing perspective.</i></p>
37<p>Solution: This probably means that you have two or more versions of MDT
38installed. To remove any old versions, go into the eclipse/plugins folder and
39remove all folders labeled with older versions of MDT.</p>
