Problems starting RM

Hi!

I've never used RM, but thought I'd try and see what it does.
However, afterunpacking and executing setup.bat (importing the registry settings), the rmaster.bat just wont make any java window visible.

the text-box window stays open.
the javaw-process keeps on running.

for days, until I kill them both.

the last line in rmaster.err shows:
Generating deviceImporter for protocol null

can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Ive tried on two computers, with the same behaviour. I'm guessing I've missed something obvious.

Thanks

I assume you have the Java runtime environment installed. If so try reinstalling it.

Thanks for the heads-up. My path-statement lead to an old java-installation (1.3) After editing the rmaster.bat, forcing it to use the 1.4-installation it starts fine.

Thanks.

PS The other PC is using a 64-bit OS, and there is only version java version 1.5 available for it. But I'll use the "normal" pc instead.

RM should work fine with Java 1.5 (anything later that 1.4.1).

It does. I run it with 1.5.0 build 06-b05. Have no problems at all.
