forgot to post here about this; apparently, it turned out to be a firewall issue; so, just a little reminder for those people having connectivity problems, the applications _needs_ to connect to the domain <jdegre.net>; it is designed to work like that. you must setup your firewall so it grants permission to the scanner application to do that; otherwise, it won't work.
oh, and a little hint for those people that want to run the application and are sitting behind an
http proxy (for instance, if you want to use the application from your work pc, at the office
, and you have no means to bypass the corporate proxy). it is possible to launch the java application and force it to go through the proxy, instead of connecting directly to the internet. all you have to do is the following:
- save the "Scanner.jar" file in a directory, as usual; let's assume that you saved it in the desktop, and the whole path is:
C:\Documents and Settings\jdegre\Desktop\Scanner.jar
- create a windows shortcut, and associate it with the following command:
javaw -Dhttp.proxyHost=myproxy.com -Dhttp.proxyPort=8080 -jar "C:\Documents and Settings\jdegre\Desktop\Scanner.jar"
where you must replace the parts in red with your actual values for the proxy host, the proxy port and the whole path of the Scanner.jar file.
- save the shortcut, and double click on it, as usual
note: it is assumed that javaw.exe is in your windows path, and it is like this by default as long as you have your java system properly installed.
