SQLeo Start up GUI Bug

    Hi,

    I seem to get a recurring error when starting SQLeo (SQLeoVQB.2015.05.rc1) in WIndows 7 in that I double-click the icon to run it but the GUI does not initialise. If I then open Task Manager and end the 'javaw' process then restart SQLeo sometimes the GUI will then appear but other times I have to kill the javaw process multiple times and restart to get the GUI to appear.

    Any ideas on what might be causing this?

    Many Thanks
    Sam

    Hi,

    We already met this problem ...
    But haven't find why (we should try with some tracing tools)

    Please retry many times, and if still blocked
    Rename or delete .sqleo.config directory found in your home
    Then restart sqleo (preferences will be lost).

    Thanks for your feedback

    same problem here.
    deleteing config does not always help
    run in terminal shows:
    SystemLookAndFeel: com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel

    version: 2016.01.rc1+
    Loading resources...
    Loading window...
    hangs there and have to kill process.
    maybe starts 1 out of 10 times
    running ubuntu 15.10 64 bit

      Thanks for reporting this
      could we try to get more informations as explained here after ?


      If the application appears to be hung and the process appears to be idle, then the first step is to try to obtain a thread dump. If the application console is available, then press the Ctrl-\ keys (on Solaris OS or Linux) or the Ctrl-Break keys (on Windows) to cause the HotSpot VM to print a thread dump. On Solaris OS and Linux the thread dump can also be obtained by sending a SIGQUIT to the process (command kill -QUIT <pid>).

        for those who are searching CTRL-BREAK

    Thanks for the dump, Can you try below steps ?

    1. Go to .sqleo.config folder and open .sqleo.xml file
    2. Look for "application.checkforupdate" without quotes
    3. Change the boolean to false as <boolean>false</boolean> and save the file

    Now start SQLeo to see if starts fine without any error.
    Try multiple times to restart SQLeo to confirm that it's starting fine.

    changing the sqleo.xml did not seem to correct it for me

    thanx

    BETA2-2 is a dump when it fails to open the gui
    BETA2-3 is a dump when it opens gui properly
    don't know if this helps.
    thanx

      Bold text as been added, and I don't find it in your output files.
      Could you double check that you have run the new jar ?
