Well, I did not test those 15!:'s. I was just happy to see the jconsole prompt. But then I tried to install the add-ons and although I achieved a few steps, I finally gave up... :( I found for myself that there isn't a good separation of system-dependent and system-independent parts, so that I could figure out what should be done. Eventually I thought for myself that the best would be to take it apart completely and then put it back together in a for-me sensible and concise way... I don't think this would be too difficult, but I only live one life... Best regards Ruda PS.: Sorry for bad news, especially on Monday. :)
