If that fixes it, I'll be tempted to take out the ability to choose the Look and Feel.


Didn't work.

I'm having problems after installing Java version 1.6.0-beta2.

Could that be the problem? seems to work fine with 1.5.0_06.

Edit:
BTW, Greg is there an issue if version > _06 goes in? There's a lot of confusion on the java version subject at work these days. For instance see this and the ref within

I don't think Java version 1.6.0-beta2 is the problem. I just installed it on my PC, and was able to use File -> Open with no problems. Help -> About even show that I am actually running it

There's something else going on here. What OS are you using? How did you install RM? Have you tried renaming/delete RemoteMaster.properties?

I hope you weren't basing that suggestion just on my LookAndFeel problems being somewhat related to my RemoteMaster.properties problems.

While those two recurring problem areas have some overlap, they also have a lot of non overlap.

I would have suggested taking away the entire RemoteMaster.properties file.

If it has any useful content (or if Greg wants it to help diagnose the issue, if it turns out to be the issue) it is best to rename it or move it to another directory rather than just delete it.

If there is no RemoteMaster.properties file, RM will start by asking where the RDF files are, then come up with default behaviors (and create a new RemoteMaster.properties file). If something in that file was triggering the difference between the way it works for Greg and the way it fails for us, starting without the file is the fastest way to find out.

No, I was basing it on what look like L&F/UI class names in the trace

Looks like madlobster is a sucker for beta software. His problem is a combination of beta Java and beta Windows Vista. See Bug ID: 6449933 Vista:FileChooserDemo throws an exception when trying to open it in Windows L&F.

At this point I'm going to say too bad, I don't support that combination.

John, I think your problem is this.

Did you say that deleting your RemoteMaster.properties file fixed your problem?

I'll try to compare that in detail tomorrow.

Thanks for the link. It works now that I installed build b97 of Java.
