GedLynk / Discussion / Help: Persistence exception trying to run the alpha

Thanks John, for making it work with Java 5, now I can run it on my PowerPC Mac.

I downloaded the alpha and tried to run it, but I get the following stack trace after the splash screen:

This is on a G5 Macintosh (OS X 10.4.11) with java version:
java version "1.5.0_13"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_13-b05-241)

I'm not familiar enough with JPA or TopLink to know the fix.

thanks,
Logan
