Hi everyone i'm trying to install odk briefcase on my laptop but i can't succeed. I download a zip file but inside i don't see the excecutable file of odk briefcase. How can i fix it
Hi,
You do not need to install ODK briefcase. Just extract the file and you will find ODK-Briefcase-v1.14.0.jar file inside the folder, double click to run this file and follow the steps as per documentation.
Hope this helps
Thanks
Hi @beg88,
You can download the latest briefcase from the link below
https://github.com/opendatakit/briefcase/releases/download/v1.14.0/ODK-Briefcase-v1.14.0.jar
Also see further instructions here https://docs.opendatakit.org/briefcase-install/
@beg88 It looks like you have WinRAR installed and it's opening the jar instead of letting Java run it.
Not sure what version of Windows you have, but you can change the default program by right-clicking the file, select Open With, then Choose default program. In the Open With window, click the Browse button to open the File Explorer window. You need to find the Java executable (probably c:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe) to run the file.
Or you can use the java -jar briefcase.jar
command that others have suggested.
