jEdit stopped working after intall of Internet Explorer 9

Submitted by oscillator on Wednesday, 16 March, 2011 - 15:36

Dear forum,

yesterday I installed IE9 on my Win7Pro computer. Since then jEdit has stopped working.

I have reinstalled JRE and jEdit but no luch. I have also switched IE9 off.

If I paste the content of the jedit.bat file:

start "jEdit startup" "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\javaw.exe" -Xmx192M -jar "C:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.jar" -reuseview %*

into a command window I don't get any error messages, only a new prompt. No jEdit window.

A "javaw.exe*32" process I started though.

Any ideas?

Questions

I got no clue of IE9's role, but questions:

1. When there is now java*** process and You then start jedit.bat, does a javaw.exe*32" process appear in task manager?
2. Also, take a look at activity.log in Your jedit settings directory: Does it have the time stamp of Your start trial? Are there errors logged? If not too long, You could mail the content here.

Robert

Thank you for helping me out!

Thank you for helping me out!

1. Yes.

2. Nothing seems to be written to the activity.log -- I only have rows in it from yesterday, before the update.

But.

Not knowing about the settings directory until you pointed out its existence, I deleted the directory ".jedit" and re-installed jEdit.

And now it works! Thank you! Smiling
