Error messages when starting the program

 

Could not find the main class

The error "Could not find the main class" is displayed if a program is started on the desktop via an out-of-date link, or when updating a program that's no longer exists in the selected directory.

 

Out of memory

The cause of the error is the size of the IDES database. To solve the problem, first compress the IDES database via "Start - Compress IDES database". Then start the IDES program, open the menu "Meldungsdateien/Übersicht" and and archive all files in the overview. Files whose reference period is two years before the current reference year can be deleted.

 

If the problem can not be solved in this way, please proceed as follows:

 

At first check the folder "archive" of the program if a current backup file (sicherung_DDMMJJJJhhmm.w3z) is available.

 

After making sure that you have a recent backup file,backup the folder "archive" by copying into another directory. Then unzip the file "w3statDB_init22.zip" in the folder "db". Please make sure that all existing files are replaced!

 

Now start the program, open the menu "Extras - Daten -wiederherstellen" and confirm the following note by clicking on "Ja". Now select the most recent backup file in the folder "archive" and transfer it into the program. Then check whether the desired dataset could be restored.
