Hi Nicolas,

Hi Donato,

It is probably due to a driver problem. What “box” are you using?

I created an issue on JIRA to investigate further: https://senbox.atlassian.net/browse/SNAP-112

On the mean time, you could remove the “snap-wordwin” module, by moving /opt/snap/snap/modules/org-esa-snap-snap-worldwind.jar to a backup location of your choice. That will deactivate the module, you won’t have the worldwind view (3D world map) but the rest of the application should work fine.

Nicolas.

Nicola’s hint is ok but after such an oppressive removal of a module you should then also delete SNAP’s user directory $USER_HOME/.snap/ or at least the var, cache, and config folders contained therein (because they may stilll have references to the removed module and SNAP may produce other errors in this case).

Hi Norman, Nicolas,
I confirm that without worldwind view (3D world map) the rest of the application works fine …
Thanks a lot.

Hi,

in snap, menu Help - Tutorials, I get error
“Sorry, it seems that there is no browser available”
Firefox is installed, and I’ve reinstalled snap after firefox installation …
Thanks in advance for help

Hi Don,

May be SNAP doesn’t find a Default Browser on you system. You can
specify a browser manually from the Tools/Option menu. On the Proxy
setting page, you can select the web browser.

The Tutorials page is there: http://step.esa.int/main/doc/tutorials/
We’ll keep populating it.

Nicolas.
