Hello, I have posted this before but never got a workable solution. I am running ubuntu Intrepid 8.10 and have installed Squirrel several times and each time opted for menu shortcuts and desktop icon but it never works. I have Sun Java jdk 6 installed. I can successfully run squirrel ONLY if I navigate into the squirrel folder, and there issue from the command line...... *java -jar squirrel-sql.jar* That works. But it's a bit inconvenient and I sure woul;d like to create a desktop launcher for it. Any assistance would be appreicated. |

Regardless of whether you are running from the command-line or a desktop shortcut, you should use the squirrel-sql.sh launcher script instead of the executable jar file. I'm not sure why the installer didn't setup a desktop shortcut, but you can manually add a custom launcher to the panel by right-clicking on the panel and choosing "Add to Panel" then "Custom Launcher". Give it the absolute path to squirrel-sql.sh for the command.
