What does "which java && java -version" say. Thanks. [tadej@tlinux-stable ~]$ which java /usr/bin/java [tadej@tlinux-stable ~]$ java -version java version "1.4.2_08" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.2_08-b03) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.2_08-b03, mixed mode) I haven't realized before that java and javac were still defaulting to Sun Java on my system. Now I switched them to the gcj versions using the alternatives system: [root@tlinux-stable tadej]# java -version java version "1.4.2" gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.1 20061011 (Red Hat 4.1.1-30) and RSSOwl is working now :) I think you can close this bug and thanks for helping me out! (In reply to comment #2) > I think you can close this bug and thanks for helping me out! Actually, I'm changing the summary to "rssowl fails to start with Sun java" and leaving it open if that's OK. I think that it would be nice if rssowl worked with Sun java, although I'll admit it's not a high priority right now. It's OK with me. Let me know if/when you need my help, however, it's not a big priority for me either. Adding xml-commons-apis.jar to the CLASSPATH in /usr/bin/rssowl should solve this problem. However, when I run rssowl with Sun java I get: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException at net.sourceforge.rssowl.util.CryptoManager.loadProxyUser(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.dao.SettingsLoader.loadProxySettings(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.controller.GUI.updateUserSettings(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.controller.GUI.startUp(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.controller.GUI.<init>(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.controller.RSSOwlLoader.<init>(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.controller.RSSOwlLoader.main(Unknown Source) Exception in thread "Shutdown Hook Thread" java.lang.NullPointerException at net.sourceforge.rssowl.util.CryptoManager.encryptData(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.util.CryptoManager.saveData(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.controller.GUI.abnormalShutDown(Unknown Source) at net.sourceforge.rssowl.controller.thread.ShutdownHook.run(Unknown Source) rssowl-1.2.3-1.fc6 package is compiled for GCJ, so why you use a generic "java" instead specific "/usr/bin/gij" ? (In reply to comment #6) > rssowl-1.2.3-1.fc6 package is compiled for GCJ, so why you use a generic > "java" instead specific "/usr/bin/gij" ? Because it's supposed to run with the current java "alternative". rssowl was just removed due to the loss of itext. My understanding is that rssowl2 doesn't depend on itext, and we intend to re-introduce rssowl2 when rawhide gets a newer SWT. I'm closing this bug for now. |
