Byron - 2011-09-30

Hello,

I'm am unable to run the MEV application and I would really appreciate your help.  I am running Mac OS X v10.6.8 and my software is up to date.

Can you help me to trouble shoot.  It seems that there is something wrong with my JAVA software or settings but I can't figure it out.  I'll paste my error messages below.

Thanks,
Byron Hartman

When I attempt to run the MEV application that I downloaded and unzipped on my mac I get these errors:

Data Download Error - An error was encountered during file download. No such file or directory

Error Downloading File - No such file or directory

Cannot launch Java application - Uncaught exception in main method: java.lang.NullPointerException

When I tried to run the MEV through the JAVA webstart link I get this error text:
