Hi Guys,
The provided Mac dmg is for the old JAVA6 version and nowdays MacOS run JAVA7 or JAVA8.
I have tried to run the software from command line with an old JAVA version “java6 -jar /Applications/PasswordSafeSWT.app/Contents/Resources/Java/PasswordSafeSWT.jar” but it doesn't work.
Is there any other walk around to start the app with a specific java version?

    To test, move into the directory which contains PasswordSafeSWT.jar and the lib directory and run

    java6 -cp 'PasswordSafeSWT.jar;lib/*' org.pwsafe.passwordsafeswt.PasswordSafeJFace
    

    Does it work?

    Thx for the feedback Hans.
    Meanwhile I have downgraded my JAVA .
    So I can't tell you if the above command works.

    I hope this problem will be solved with the new maven based build with a new AppStarter. It's not tested yet, if you want to try it based on sourcecode, check out
