Re: [jazzplusplus-devel] "Floating exception"

[Robert V. <vo...@ct...>]

I created the file 'jazz' in my home directory, but when I started it the 
dialog box appeared asking me to identify the location of the jazz.conf 
file.

At this point I navigated the dialog box to 
(home)/jazzplusplus/trunk/jazz/conf at which point it does find a jazz.conf 
file. On open, it says it can't find the config file and it locks up looking 
like the attached screen shot.

It looks like the path error occurs before the dialog box appears When I 
navigate to the cfg file it produces a dialog box warning, and then locks up 
for a number of seconds.
After a while it says the box is not responding and I force quit. Again, 
here is a screen shot.

...so I rebooted. It must be that it now finds the files I added  (jazz is 
in my home directory now) because it comes up with the player screen. Only 
thing is alsa doesn't see it anymore. :(
