Koala compiler not working in windows

Question

I need to compile LESS to CSS file. i installed the koala GUI application in my windows7 PC. but not able to see the app window when i clicked open the Koala app. But Koala.exe is there in my task manager's process tab. Please help me in this . Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Got the answer from GITHUB that before i had version 1.4.0 that is having some issue in windows. so I installed the latest version 1.4.1, there it is working good.

Answer 2

Try out the terminal feature of Aptana 3 and native lessc. I installed node, then I installed less with npm install -g less then I used the terminal in Aptana with lessc -ru style.less > style.css. It worked properly:)

Answer 3

If the Koala exe is in the process list or even if the koala notification process is shown in the task manager, kill these. Kill anything related to Koala compiler and restart the app. It happened to me and this fixed the issue.
