Hey there I downloaded the SDK and ran through the associated instructions with getting the SDK setup. I haven’t modified the existing code, and thought I’d see if I can get an example working. I have got a developer key in the Ignition System. I went to the build of the ComponentExample and ran the Ant build, without any errors. I checked the Gateway and the module was loaded there, with a big green tick telling me that the module was loaded (not running 😐 ). When I try to load the Designer, I get an error: Error Launching application Exception: Error unpacking componentexample-designer.jar I have tried restarting the gateway and the PC, but nothing happens. I have tried other examples in the SDK and I get the same error. Where can I find more information about this error, where will this log be recorded? What do I need to do in order to use these example modules? Regards Jarren ---

1. What version of Java are you running? 2. Are there any more details in that error message? 3. What does your pack200.properties file look like in your SDK’s build directory? ---

Hi Carl 1. When I run the “java -version” command I get: Java SE runtime environment (build 1.8.0-b132) I am running a 32-bit version of Java on a 64-bit Windows 8 machine, if that makes any difference. 1. No other details other than the text I have written below. It appears in a pop-up window, if that is relevant. Is there not a log that may reveal more information? 2. Pack200.properties, as viewed by Notepad++: `modificationtime=latest stripdebug=false deflatehint=true keepfileorder=false unknownattribute=error segmentlimit=-1 effort=7 com.sun.java.util.jar.pack.package.majver=150 com.sun.java.util.jar.pack.package.minver=7` Regards Jarren ---

Remove the last two lines of pack200.properties. They’re not compatible with Java 8. ---

😃 Ok, I found. There was a file “componentexample-designer.jar.pack.gz” in the folder " Ignition\lib\core\designer" After removing this file, all works without problem. ![:thumb_left:](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/1X/e26afb081ddde6df016df6ee49159cf56aaca688.gif ":thumb\_left:")
