    public static void main(String[] args) {
            Screen s = new Screen();
            App app = new App("C:/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox/firefox.exe");//firefox path

            }

Error -->

[error] ResourceLoaderBasic: check: libs dir is empty, has wrong content or is outdated

[action] ResourceLoaderBasic: check: Please wait! Trying to extract libs to: C:\Documents and Settings\Dell\SikuliX\libs

[error] ResourceLoaderBasic: loadLib: Fatal Error 109: not found: C:\Documents and Settings\Dell\SikuliX\libs\VisionProxy.dll

[error] Terminating SikuliX after a fatal error(109)! Sorry, but it makes no sense to continue!

If you do not have any idea about the error cause or solution, run againwith a Debug level of 3. You might paste the output to the Q&A board.
Solution

  • --1. when programming in Java using Sikuli, you should always use sikuli-java.jar (sikuli-ide.jar contains much stuff not needed here).

    --2. Set a JVM option -Dsikuli.Debug=3 when running the exe to get more details about what's going on. I guess the problem is, that for some reason the export of the native libs does not work in the context of a launch4J exe (I did not test this yet).

    --3. always use the latest version (1.1.1 in this case, still nightly but pre-final ;-) http://sikulix.com
