Java 1.7.0_21 breaks Yawcam

Post by malun »

Yawcam doesn't work with the new java version 1.7.0_21 that is currently rolling out. We're looking at it...

Just to complete
I tried to re-installed java 6.35 but I still get this message :
Error: Access to the writer is not allowed

I can not capture any file ans the video can not be online.

As Malun mentioned in another thread, a temporary workaround is to get an older version of Java from here:

Keep in mind though that you should always keep Java updated, so check back here often and update your Java as soon as there is a permanent solution for Yawcam.

I am still running Yawcam 0.3.8 and I had to go back to Java 7 Update 17 because with Update 21 Yawcam puts out .jpg files of zero length with motion-detection and file-output selected. Is Yawcam 0.4.1 compatible with Java 7 Update 21 with respect to file-output?
