After downloading the "express.jnlp" locate java Web Start.app in folder below if using OSX 10.5.7
/System/Library/CoreServices/Java Web Start.app
Start the application then return to your jnlp file and run it. This time it will not be opened by text editor like before, but it will start Express installtion procedure. Enjoy.
I've downloaded "express.jnlp" as described above and started the Java Web app, but nothing happend. I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.1 with the installed java version
java version "1.6.0_15"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_15-b03-219)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.1-b02-90, mixed mode)
on my MacBook Pro 2.16 GHz Intel Core duo with 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM.
I've installed all Mac OS X patches as provided by the automatic software update tool.
Do you've go an idea why the installation doesn't start as expected?
THANKS for your support
Markus
Actually this works very well, although your Mac must be configured to handle Java WebStart, i.e. those JNLP files. There is a Apple-knowledge base article for troubleshooting.
But please be aware that this is not a platform supported by IDS Scheer.
On Snow Leopard with a new user account Aris Express works very good!
But now to the problems :-(
On my existing user account I alway get

Hi,
I started using ARIS Express on a Mac for a while and it works very well. Except some facile restrictions, you can work with it as on a Windows platform. In my experience ARIS Express on a Mac is running stable, as fast as on Windows and without any functionality constraints. So I am pretty excited of it !
My system:
OS: MAC OS X 10.6.2
Processor: 2.4 GHz Inter Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4 GB DDR3
L2-Cache: 3MB
Java Version: 1.6.0_17
@Michael and everyone having problems: Sorry, I can not figure out your problems, but maybe my java console report does it. This is the java logfile of the ARIS Express start. Just compare it with yours!
cheers

little topic refreshing :-)
I’ve just download and install ARIS Express on mac os 10.5.7. Install procedures finished well and application started without any problem (cool). I quit ARIS Express and ... which file I should click now to lunch application? If I start express.jnlp then install procedures are starting again :/
Hi,
if you open your Java Panel (well, in Window can reach the Java Panel in the System panel... do not ask me 'bout Mac), you have on the first "general" page a section "temporary internet files". If you click "settings", you'll get a page where an option "leave temporary files on computer" is available. Make sure this is switched on.
The reason is, that Java Webstart considers an application to be stored in a "cache" (I hate that term in that context). If you do not keep the application stored, it is downloaded every time.
Bye,
Frank

Hi,
I just like to mentioned, that Express is not officially released for the Mac.
The reason is simple: Apple provides an own Java virtual machine. Therefore, a different - and maybe wrong - behavior might occur. This is completely out of our hands. This has nothing to do with Express itself, but with the Apple virtual machine. If the application gets downloaded even if the option is set (and the available space for the webstart cache is high enough), this is IMHO a bug on Apple's virtual machine.
Bye,
Frank
Still do not work ...

Hello,
There is a bug in the new Java version 7, which prevents ARIS Express to start.
If you installed the new version, maybe per automatical update, you need to go back to an older version of Java.
Sorry for any inconveniences. I hope, the new JRE version, where the bug have been fixed, will be released soon.
Bye,
Frank
aris express 2.3 on Moutain lion 10.8.2 with Java 1.6 only
1) Remove the the existing symbolic link:
sudo rm /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin
2) Create a new symbolic link:
sudo ln -s /System/Library/Java/Support/Deploy.bundle/Contents/Resources/JavaPlugin2_NPAPI.plugin /Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin
downolad this : Télécharger, install (last apple java 1.6)
With the Terminal open, type in java -version then press Enter. Then retrieve the current java version, in this example being 1.6.0_xx
if not start again
open java preferences, (préférences java mountain lion)
network part
delete cache quit
try to launch Aris express

If you experience downloads on (almost) each startup, follow these steps to get around this problem:
- Run the following command on a shell:
ping cdn-download.ariscommunity.com - The result of this command will contain something similar to:
Reply from 216.137.61.220: bytes=32 time=24ms TTL=55
Reply from 216.137.61.220: bytes=32 time=24ms TTL=55
Reply from 216.137.61.220: bytes=32 time=25ms TTL=55 - The number 216.137.61.220 is an IP address and might be different depending on your physical location. Take note of this number.
- Add the following entry to your hosts file
-
sudo /Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit /etc/hosts
replacing the IP address with the one the ping command has shown:
216.137.61.220 cdn-download.ariscommunity.com
The exact location and format of your hosts file depends on the operating system you use.
Hi,
this is to inform you that ARIS 2.4d is running on the Mac now.
