Hi, When I try to run the install.jar file for this a blank LzPack window opens up with the heading "Installation of Squirrel SQL Cleint" and then it just stays there till I kill it. Has anyone seen anything like this before? KW |

When you run the following command, what do you see? java -version Do you run the installer like java -jar <installer>.jar ? We've seen issues like this before for some JVMs when used on Linux with Compiz / Beryl Desktop Effects. You can try disabling them and re-launching the installer to see if that is it.

(Blah) and Kubuntu 7.04 aka Freespire 2.0 and it fires off with no problems. But when I hit Kubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 it's blow up city. Sad too, because it's a great db tool. Open for suggestions. :) KW. |

If I run the installer as a normal user I get: Qfile: writeblocked: file not open Also the Lzpack window comes up like it's ready to install but it just hangs. If I run the install as root I get: Invalid Mit-Magic-Cookie-! Key (.:426): Gtk WARNING **: Cannot Open Display : 0.0 Hope this yeilds some clues. KW. |

I've seen this behavior recently on gutsy with Sun JDK 1.5 and Visual Effects set to "Normal". I switched to running the installer with Sun JDK 1.6.0_03-b05 and I haven't seen the problem re-appear.

Just out of curiousity I used Synaptic to install the OpenJDK-6 package. (had that failed I would have tried the Sun package next) After doing that everything installed and Squirrel SQL is up and running! (This is the fix for getting Squirrel SQL going with Kubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) Many thanks! :) :) :) KW |
