[[TranslatedPages]] [[PageOutline(2-3,Table of Contents)]] = Download = This page provides basic JOSM installation steps and troubleshooting information. To start working with JOSM please see the [wiki:Introduction] and the [wiki:Help] pages. And for complex installation issues see [wiki:InstallNotes]. == Recommended options == [[Image(source:trunk/images/openlocation.png, valign=middle, link=download/josm.jnlp )]] **Launch [/download/josm.jnlp josm.jnlp]** (newest tested version) [[br]] Recommended version, all platforms, automatic update to the newest ''tested version'' monthly ([wiki:#Troubleshootingjnlplink how to launch]).[[br]] [[br]] [[Image(source:trunk/images/download.png, valign=middle, link=)]] **Download [/josm-tested.jar josm-tested.jar]** (tested version [[Version(tested)]]) [[br]] All platforms ([wiki:Download#Troubleshootingjarfile how to start]). [[br]] == All download options ==#Moredownloadoptions Every [/roadmap month] the team of JOSM [wiki:Releases releases] a ''tested version''. The MS Windows and Apple Mac variants are built on this tested version. When you click on josm.jnlp to launch JOSM you will always get the newest tested version. Java's [wiki:InstallNotes#Webstart Web Start] is the mechanism behind this. [=#DevelopmentVersion] Every [/log/josm/?verbose=on&limit=20 night] the build systems generate a ''latest version''. These versions might have severe errors or even crash. But mostly they work well, too. For the latest version is also a Web Start variant available. ||= Version =||= OS Independent[[br]]Download =||= OS Independent[[br]]Web Start =||= Windows =||= Apple Mac =||= Ubuntu, Debian… =||= openSUSE =|| || **tested** [[Version(tested)]] || \ || **[/josm-tested.jar]** || \ || **[/download/josm.jnlp josm.jnlp]** || \ || [/download/windows/josm-setup.exe setup.exe][[br]]''([wiki:USB_Stick portable])'' || \ || [/download/macosx/josm-macosx.zip package.zip][[br]]''([#MacOSerrors see below])'' || \ || ''[#Ubuntu see below]'' || \ || ''[#openSUSE see below]'' || || latest[[br]][[Version(latest)]] || \ || [/josm-latest.jar] || \ || [/download/josm-latest.jnlp latest.jnlp] || || || ''[#Ubuntu see below]'' || || ||= older =|| [/download/ download/] || || || || || || When running scripts please first check on [/latest latest], [/tested tested] or [/version both] to reduce download bandwidth. ==== Strip translations ==== If download size is an issue for you: * Append **?lang=…** to the download link address for the tested version to strip unused translations (e.g. **?lang=de** will download JOSM in German language only). * **Note**: Use underscore to separate [[Translations|language codes]] with country code extensions, e.g. **?lang=en_GB** * Append **?unsigned=1** to strip the code signing information * When **lang** and **unsigned** are used the separation is a **&** sign like in **?lang=de&unsigned=1** The file size shrinks from .jar: 10.2M over .jar?lang=de: 8.2M to .jar?lang=de&unsigned=1: 7.7M (as of version 10786). == Repositories == === openSUSE ===#openSUSE Tested version of JOSM is available in the Application:Geo repository. First add as root user in yast or with zypper the repository (replace the version in the URL with the one you are using): {{{ zypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Application:/Geo/openSUSE_13.2 Application:Geo }}} Then simply install **josm** and **josm-fonts** package. === Ubuntu ===#Ubuntu This is a package repository primarily for Ubuntu. It should also work with other Debian based (especially Ubuntu based) distributions, but we do not actively test and maintain any distributions other than Ubuntu. [[BR]] Note: in addition to the regular procedure described below, older DEBs can be manually downloaded from the archives [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt/pool/universe/j/josm/ for josm] aka josm-tested and [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt/pool/universe/j/josm-latest/ for josm-latest]. The repository contains two packages: {{{josm}}}:: ''The tested version''[[br]] Replaces the package from the official Ubuntu repository. {{{josm-latest}}}:: ''The development version (nightly build)''[[br]] Can be installed parallel to the {{{josm}}} package. The default preference folder is {{{~/.josm-latest}}}. ==== Installation ==== Edit the package resource list {{{/etc/apt/sources.list}}}: {{{ #!sh sudo editor /etc/apt/sources.list }}} and add one of the following lines according to your Ubuntu-Version: {{{ deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt trusty universe deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt utopic universe deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt vivid universe deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt wily universe deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt xenial universe deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt yakkety universe deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt zesty universe deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt artful universe }}} Alternatively, this can be done with the following one-liner: {{{ echo deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt $(lsb_release -sc) universe | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/josm.list > /dev/null }}} For other Debian based distributions, add the following line: {{{ deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt alldist universe }}} {{{#!comment ### below did not work on all systems and add the following line: ` deb https://josm.openstreetmap.de/apt VERSION universe ` }}} Download and register the [[/josm-apt.key|public key]]: {{{ #!sh wget -q https://josm.openstreetmap.de/josm-apt.key -O- | sudo apt-key add - }}} Now refresh your sources (you may need to install `sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https`) {{{ #!sh sudo apt-get update }}} and install: {{{josm}}}:: (You can skip the first line if you haven't installed these packages before.) {{{ #!sh sudo apt-get remove josm josm-plugins sudo apt-get install josm }}} {{{josm-latest}}}:: {{{ #!sh sudo apt-get install josm-latest }}} == Troubleshooting == === Java ===#java [=#Doubleclickonafiledoesnothing] When you double-click on a jar file and nothing happens in most cases this means Java isn't installed. JOSM is tested and developed with Oracle JVM, therefore we recommend to get Java from their [https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp manual download] site. Mind yoursystems architecture (32 or 64 bit) when [https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_win64bit.xml choosing] the installation. Java 64 bit is recommended for JOSM. ''Java'' is the common name for a product called ''Java Runtime Environment'' now or short ''JRE''. Formerly other names were used. Please avoid the page java.com/en/download because it tries to automatically detect your system architecture but fails much to often for being a real help. You do **not** need a Java-Plugin for your web browser to work with JOSM. If you still can't download or install Java, visit [https://www.java.com/en/download/help/troubleshoot_java.xml Oracles troubleshooting] pages for more information. ==== Java Test ==== [=#Troubleshootingjarfile] Checks to see why JOSM is not starting, examples are for MS Windows. 1. Download [/josm-tested.jar josm-tested.jar] to your desktop. 1. Open a Command Prompt aka Terminal 1. Type `cd %homepath%\desktop `⏎ 1. Type `java -version `⏎ Three lines with Javas version data sould appear. When you see something else then Java is not properly installed. 1. Type `java -jar josm-tested.jar `⏎. Now JOSM should run, started from the [wiki:/Help:CommandLineOptions Command Line]. 1. Quit JOSM. 1. Type `josm-tested.jar `⏎. If JOSM starts again, the Windows Explorer can start jar files when you by doubleclick them. === Web Start ===#Troubleshootingjhlplink [=#webstart] Launching JOSM via Web Start has many more error causes than traditional way with downloading a jar file and then running it. So please complete the [#JavaTest Java Test] above before starting further [https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_webstart.xml Web Start] tests. ==== Web Start Test ==== 1. Download [/josm-tested.jar josm.jnlp] to your desktop. 1. Open a Terminal and move to the Desktop as above 1. Type `javaws josm.jnlp`⏎. This should initially download JOSM, serve a security dialog and then launch JOSM. === Virtual Machine ===#Troubleshootingjvm ==== Out of memory ==== In more extensive edit sessions, you may get an "out of memory" error. To avoid this, the assigned memory can be increased with {{{-Xmx}}} option, see [[Help/CommandLineOptions]] for details. ==== VM selection ====#VMselectiononWindowsx64 On current versions of MS Windows by default Java is installed mainly in the `C:\Program Files\Java\` directory. Additional parts are placed in `C:\Program Files\Oracle\Java\`. There `.\javapath\` is the target for the PATH environment variable and virtual home for the three files `java.exe`, `javaw.exe` and `javaws.exe`. On older versions of 64 bit Windows sometimes the 32 bit mode JRE was additionally installed. Also some browsers brought their own JVM with limited capabilities. In those cases a Web Start from the browser would not use your Java installation but that from the browser. Check that there's no other javawebstart in {{{\Windows\SysWow64}}}. The Java control panel will not detect it and you can safely delete it. Perfom cleanup and only keep the latest versions of each JRE (One or the 32-bit mode, another one for the 64-bit mode). For shortcuts created on the desktop for JNLP and running the Javawebstart launcher , make sure to pass VM parameters prefixed with -J and no intermediate space before the VM option. If you have installed both the 32-bit and 64-bit version, you should pass the option "{{{-d64}}}" if you want to select the preferred 64-bit VM. Note that some Oracle documentation pages indicate the option "-D64" with the incorrect capitalization!) Example of an edited commandline for the shortcut created on the windows desktop after running JOSM just once from the JNMP and exiting: {{{ #!sh javaws.exe -J-d64 -J-Xmx2048m -localfile -J-Djnlp.application.href=https://josm.openstreetmap.de/download/josm.jnlp "C:\Users\\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\21\73117f8" }}} You don't need to change the end of the command line with the snipped parts here. Just check the path for {{{javaws.exe}}} and add options {{{-J-d64}}} for the 64-bit mode needed to work with large OSM datasets, and {{{-J-Xmx2048m}}} to increase the VM size (to 2GB here). === MacOS Errors === [=#MacOSXMountainLionErrors] {{{ #!comment old section title, keeping as anchor for old links }}} [[Image(#8787:damaged_josm_app.png,align=right,margin-top=-35,margin-left=30)]] If you get an error saying "'JOSM.app' is an application downloaded from the internet." you can bypass this by **right-clicking on JOSM.app** or josm.jnlp and selecting 'open'. You should then see the same message but this time with an option to "Open" regardless. This is only necessary on the first run of JOSM. If you get an error saying "'JOSM.app' is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash", then you need to temporarily disable Gatekeeper. Open System Preferences and the 'Security & Privacy' options. Set 'Allow applications downloaded from:' to 'Anywhere'. If that radio button is missing from the Security & Privacy preferences panel, the following may be entered using the Terminal window to make it appear: [[Image(SecurityPrivacy.png)]] {{{ sudo spctl --master-disable }}} === Known issues === Not closed issues about ...: * [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/query?status=!closed&type=defect&keywords=~java Java issues] - some of the bugs lead to blockers in Oracle JVM (covered at [[JavaBugs]]). * [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/query?status=assigned&type=defect&status=needinfo&status=new&status=reopened&keywords=~linux&order=priority Linux] * [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/query?status=assigned&type=defect&status=needinfo&status=new&status=reopened&keywords=~ubuntu&order=priority Ubuntu] * [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/query?status=assigned&type=defect&status=needinfo&status=new&status=reopened&keywords=~macos&order=priority MacOS] * [https://josm.openstreetmap.de/query?status=assigned&type=defect&status=needinfo&status=new&status=reopened&keywords=~windows&order=priority Windows]
