Mac OSX - Case sensitive file system (JRELoadError)
Hi,

SH3D is another software in the line of softwares that doesn't work with case sensitive file system.

If I try to run it from "Applications" I get an JRELoadError.
But if I copy "Sweet Home 3D.app" to an USB stick the software runs fine.

This isn't the first software where I have seen this problem.

It's 2017, this shouldn't be a problem wink

Could it be a clue about the infamous JRELoadError? smile

I think so yes.
Normally you don't experience this problem when you are running only OSX.
But when you are a "MashUp-person" running Win/*nix/OSX you see it it from time to time.
Case sensitivity has been around for a long time in the *nix world.

I just tried to run the Mac App Store version of Sweet Home 3D from a USB key formatted with the case sensitive option, and confirm I got a JRELoadError.

But if you try to format it ExFAT and try to run it from there?

My problem was how to reproduce the JRELoadError issue, not how to avoid it!
Many thanks for posting your message. It seems that using the Java launcher generated by javapackager fixes this issue smile

To fix this issue on the existing version, you should click on the application icon of Sweet Home 3D while maintaining the ctrl key pressed to display its contextual menu, choose Show Package Contents item, open the Contents folder and rename the folder Plugins as PlugIns (with an uppercase I).
