Summary: Crash on startup

Initial Comment:
I'm running Mac OS X 10.4.1 and PCgen crashes on startup. I tried 
this on two different systems (same os version) with the same results 
and error message. I also get the same error and results when 
launching older versions (5.8rc7, 5.6). Everything worked fine on OS 
10.3.9. Both systems were upgraded by the "archive and install" 
process.

No arm done Eric.

Ray, can you tell me which package you use to install (win installer or the _full version). Also, did you install it in a new directory or do you have older stuff in the mix like older .lst files or CMP files? And Ray, you might have a different error message then what Eric had. Eric's error message is normally only found on Mac with OS X Tiger. Can you paste your message here please.

Doh. I did use the installer. When I used the full version it worked. Sorry.

I'm having the same problem with the lastest version
(PCGen580) on a Windows XP SP2 machine. I'm using the latest
version of Java 1.5.

Is it possible that you didn't follow the instructions and used 
the Mac installer with Tiger? There is a know issue with 
something that Tiger introduced and that makes the PCGen 
compiled for the Mac installer fail.

It this is the case, uninstall and use the _full package instead.
