Open the installer JAR file in a ZIP archiver and check that the file
installer/install.props is contained therein. I have no idea why it would be
missing though... corrupt download perhaps?

I have the same issue on WIN2000 Pro using JAVA:
java version "1.4.1_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build
1.4.1_02-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_02-b06, mixed mode)
java -jar jedit41install.jar

I have used the same installer on RedHat LINUX 7.3 and Jedit
4.1 installs clean.
Anyway to do a manual install?

Received this from support:
mkdir jedit_install
cd jedit_install
jar xvf <path to>\jedit41install.jar
java -classpath . installer.Install
And the install worked fine.

This is a Java bug that can happen if there are special characters in the
JAR file's path. Try putting it in the root of your C: drive, for example,
and run it again.
