Hangs at splash screen on XP SP2 + Sun j2sdk1.4.2_05 + jEdit 4.2
Submitted by Anonymous on Thursday, 11 November, 2004 - 01:03
Tried both generic jar and windows installers, installation went smoothly.
But jEdit hangs at splash screen when started (progress bar reaches the end).
Any idea what could be wrong?

Hi Had a similar problm on a different configuration though - xp/jdk1.5. Try this, might solve (not sure) After installing the generic jar file... Open a command prompt and cd to the jEdit install folder. Type /jre/bin/javaw.exe - jar jedit.jar and see what happens. Needless to say you have to replace JAVA_HOME with your java install folder. Point is to use javaw.exe from the jre folder, not the one in jdk/bin. Hope this works. Smiling -Ramesh
