RELEASE: JHoraLite 6.0 and JHora 6.0

[Guest guest]

Om NamoBhagavate SatyaDevaaya

Namaste friends,

 

Happy Guru Pournima to all of you! I want to express my humble gratitude to all my gurus!

 

On this auspicious occasion, I am happy to release version 6.0 of free software

"Jagannatha Hora Lite" and commercial software "Jagannatha Hora 6.0".

 

Version 6.0 of the free Lite version contains annual Tithi Pravesha charts

(annual lunar return charts - the lunar equivalent of Tajaka), Tithi Ashtottari

dasa, Moola dasa and Drigdasa.

 

The commercial version includes critical updates in atlas computation and

timezone computation and several features like a graphical transit calendar.

This version also includes a fix in the licensing mechanism. Your machine ID

will not change and the same license key will work until you change your

network card or make significant hardware changes. Version 6.0 also includes

many minor bug-fixes/improvements. If you bought version 5.0 of the commercial

version, I strongly recommend upgrading to version 6.0.

 

Soon version 6.0 of JHoraLite will be available for downloading on SJC website

too. For now, you can download from my website. Here are the links:

Depending on your situation, go to the appropriate page. Of course, you can go to

and find links from there.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

PS: There seems to be some problem with the -GeoCities service I have.

Sometimes, it gives an error saying the file cannot be accessed. This does not

happen for simple pages and happens only when you try to download a zip file. I

have upgraded to a better service. It will take a few days for the new service

to start. Until then, if you get an error, there is no solution other than

coming back after a few hours and trying again.

 

PPS: If you go to the JHLite 6.0 page, download only the short version

(jhl6s.zip). The other version (jhl6.zip) has a problem. I tried uploading it

to several times. Each time, it says the upload was successful. But, when

I download it, the downloaded file has one extra byte and hence the zip file is

unzippable. I will resolve the issue in a couple of days. Meanwhile, you can

install the short version. The only difference is that it has minimal help.

Namaste,

 

I gave a link below to "free 6.0 update for those who ALREADY have the

commercial (non-lite) version". A couple of people who do not have the

commercial version and have only the lite version tried to install the update.

 

If you do that, your lite version will also be corrupted and you will have to

re-install it. The update is meant only for existing customers of the

commercial version. If you are not one, simply download the latest lite version

and do not complicate things for yourself by trying out the update of the

commercial software.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha

Hare Rama Krishna

Namaste,

 

Version 6.0.1 of free Jyotish software Jagannatha Hora Lite has been released.

 

Due to a discrepancy in saving the user preferences file, some user preferences

are saved/read incorrectly (e.g. custom ayanamsa). Topocentric positions and

true nodes are used by default and hence dasa dates are off by several months.

There are several symptoms, but the root cause is the same. It has been fixed.

Now user preferences are saved correctly and the default preferences are set

correctly.

 

You are advised to uninstall the previous release (6.0) and install this new

version (version 6.0, release 6.0.1).

There are no similar problems in the commercial version. Rao Nemani mentioned

that he had problems when experimenting with some options in the commercial

version also. However, there are no such problems to the best of my knowledge.

He said he cannot reproduce the problem. Hence I will assume that there was

some confusion on his part when experimenting.

 

Please note that JHora commercial version gives many options and it is possible

to change various calculations drastically by using various preferences. When

playing with the preferences, make sure that you understand what you are doing.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha
