I have a fresh download of spring-tool-suite-3.6.4.RELEASE-e4.4.2-macosx-cocoa-x86_64.tar.gz & JDK 8u45 on either Mac OS X 10.9.5 or 10.10.3 that crashes after launch. STS loads, asks me where to create a workspace, the interface loads, then crashes about 15 seconds later.
Due to IT Security policies, I have to use Java 8, so downgrading the JDK to a lower version is not an option.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshot/fix this issue?
Note, I'm a System Admin preparing the package for deployment, not a developer. I don't have any previous workspaces or old versions of the software installed on my machines.
Thanks!
Did you actually let it load your previous workspace, for example from STS 3.6.2 or something? If so, please make sure that you create a new workspace and then give it a shot.
I have been using STS 3.6.2. But after I saw your post, I decided to give it a tried. Downloaded it, unarchived it and ran it.It has been running for good 5-10 mins so far. So, I don't believe anything is wrong with the pack.
OS: MacOSX 10.10.3
I don't really know why this fixed it, but if I install the JDK 7 update 79 and then install JDK 8 update 45 everything runs. I haven't done any real deep dives to see what parts 7u79, if any are being left behind after 8u45 gets installed, but it's working.

I have a javafx application which i launch with the help of a .app bundle (created with install4j). The .jar launch perfectly in command line or in eclipse but when i use the .app, it hangs for at least 1 minute (the computer freeze) and finaly finish booting after many other hangs. My app require to be added in Security->Accessibility (assistive device). If the app is not added, it will boot perfectly until it ask for the security clearance. Once i add it, it hangs at the very start even before the splashscreen. Any ideas?
Edit : It works when i launch the javaApplicationStub directly.
If you haven't already resolved this, this will probably have happened due to Java (FX) bugs with Mac OS 10.14 Mojave: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8213793
There were 2 or 3 related bugs and they affected all Java versions up to 11.0.2, which was finally released in February 2019.
Upgrading to 11.0.2 or higher or downgrading to Mac OS 10.13 would probably solve this issue. It is not an install4j issue or related to anything other than the use of Java FX on Mojave.
I am on Ubuntu 16.04 with NetBeans 8.1 - fresh install provided by Ubuntu SW center + OpenJDK - default with Ubuntu.
When I follow the video manual on codename one web site: https://www.codenameone.com/download.html
I do not get option to install codename one plugin.
To be precise, there is not a single available plugin listed.
In Windows 7 this works fine however.
I don't even know, who should I attribute this problem to:
Ubuntu 16.04 ? - which sucks and behaves weird compared to earlier Ubuntu versions (now for instance does not close the open and frozen NetBeans - had to kill -9 it)
Net Beans 8.1 ? which runs just fine with Win7
codename one ? Which I rather doubt :)
or even me ? :)
Please give me any hints, if anyone ran into similar troubles, how do I fix it ?
We need to the official Java 8 JDK for install since we need access to Java FX for things such as web browser/media support. If OpenJDK will ever work with Java FX properly then it should work fine with Codename One.
Here is the solution:
Part of the story is, that you should use original JDK from Oracle, not the pre-installed OpenJDK. Similarly, Android Studio will complain about incompatible JDK.
But secondly ! Using the NetBeans installation provided by Ubuntu SW center results in incomplete, or not updatable version. Simply you get no available plugins listed. Only those pre-installed. Moreover, this IDE freezes much too often. What the heck !?
Instead download and install NetBeans from their site:
I went for the full version.
For this and many other reasons I think I am done with Ubuntu 16.04
Every day it convinces me it does not YET deserve to occupy my disk space. I will probably step back to 14.04 LTS, until 16.04 LTS it reaches some mature state.
I tried to download Java on my laptop (which has windows 10) but i keep getting a 1603 error. My computer used to have windows 8.1 and it did not work back then either
I appreciate any advice to solve or work around this problem
I have had this problem. I was able to fix it thanks to a co-worker. The problem started happening after I installed HP Unified Functional Testing (UFT, aka QTP). Installing this product changes the Windows environment variables used by Java. He told me the following: "So change the names of JAVA_OPTIONS, IBM_JAVA_OPTIONS, JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS to something else (both in system and user variables) and delete any Java folder(in Program Files (x86) or Program Files) which gets installed despite the error. Restart the system and then try installing Java."
Actually, all I did was rename the environment variables and run the installer. This worked.
My answer is not related to win 10, but might help someone who is having similar problem in windows 7 machine and not able to install jre 32 bit version.
the work around to this is once you downloaded the jre, copy the path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_121\bin\javaw.exe" and paste it under java runtime environment settings which is found -Java Control panel>java>view
I think you downloaded the wrong version. If your laptop support x64 bit software you should download Java 1.8 x64 version.
Here is the link.

I had this problem for a month now. I tried everything on my windows 8, but I couldn't get the latest java on it. When I tried to install java on an empty computer, the 64 bit version did not go through (error 1603) and I realized the problem didn't come from an old java install and I install 32 bit. it worked on the new computer with windows 7 and on my computer running 8.1.
note: I had deleted all the java versions before going through with it.
To fix java 1603 error you have to follow few simple steps.
First of all remove all old java version.
Then remove some windows update file which might be reason of this
error. Like KB2918614 update.
After that download and Install latest version of java and activate
java in browser. Now everything will be fine you can test the java
version on java website...

I encountered this error on Windows 8.1 and when I checked with Oracle web site, they said that is is not yet resolved, and under investigation. They also showed a link for off-line installation as an alternative arrangement. However, upon investigation of my system, i found out that the available space in C drive was only about 20 MB or so. I cleared my system and provided enough space. When I tried with the extra space, I didn't encounter any error. May be, you could try with a better free space...
First you should close the browser because if any webpage will use Java, it will cause conflict. Then do custom installation, i.e. install in some other folder other than default folder and point environment variable to newly installed Java location. It will resolve your issue.
I was using oracle forms in WEB Windows XP with IE6 it was working well with J initiator. Now I switched to Windows 7 with IE9 I installed Jinitator but, IE is crashing.
Any solution ?
There are several solutions for this.
Ditch jinitiator and switch to JRE 1.6.0_37.
Works on Windows XP and Windows 7 and Linux (REHL 5/6 AND FEDORA 17*).
Browsers tested IE7/8/9, chrome, firefox, safari.
What kind/version of application server are you using?
What kind/version of forms are you using?
*) YES You can install oracle 11.2.0.2 database, Weblogic 10.3.6 and Forms 11.1.2.0.0 on Fedora 17
You should realize why in the past you should have used jinitiator and not a jre version. So here is some background:
When webforms gave birth oracle had a lot of bugs regarding to the java runtime. In that time java was from Sun and they didn't want to solve all the issues regarding oracle webforms. So instead of pushing Sun (if Oracle even could do that at that moment) they had the idea of doing the work themselves. So Jinitiator was the product to solve all these issues.
In the meantime Sun fixed all the problems (or at least most of them in the end of version 1.5 and the beginning of version 1.6 of java runtime), so jinitiator was becoming absolute.
At this moment java development is from Oracle and not anymore from Sun so all the problems will certainly be resolved and jinitiator can disappear from this world.
So the solution to you're problem is indeed install java runtime version in windows 7.
Hope this answer will give all of you a better insight in this matter.
I only can offer you to try Netscape browser, on Windows 7 i am running Oracle Forms with Netscape and it works well.
I tried the below and it worked.
Install Jinitiator as normal, if your having problems actually getting it to install, just use the Win7 ‘compatibility mode’ to get it to stay on your machine instead of it annoyingly uninstalling itself at the end of a failed install process.
Now
Replace the jvm.dll in jinitiator directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.13\bin\hotspot\) with this file jvm.dll.
Restart IE* and try again, Windows 7 should reduce your color scheme and your app should now work.
I'm on a team of 6 developers and we are all using Eclipse Indigo on Ubuntu 11.04. At least once a day, if Eclipse is running, each of us experiences a total system lock-up. The only cure is a hard reboot of the PC. Some of us have had it more than ten times in one day. This does not happen if Eclipse is not running, so I can confidently say that Eclipse is the problem.
I have tried increasing the memory available to Eclipse by going into the ecplise.ini and increasing the Permsize, MaxPermSize, Xms, and Xmx. This has made no difference and everyone's PC is still locking up.
Has anyone experienced this before? I could understand maybe on one PC, but it happens on every single PC!
Java version: java-6-sun-1.6.026 JDK version
Ecplise version: Indigo SR1 BuildID 20110916-0149
Ubuntu version: 11.04 64-bit
EDIT: Ctrl-Alt-FnX keys do not work once the PC has locked up.
EDIT: I've revisited the eclipse.ini settings and increase the memory some more. So far I haven't had a crash yet. I will use the other developers as guinea pigs, but I'm hopeful that these settings will stop the crashing.
-XX:PermSize=256m
-XX:MaxPermSize=512m
-Xms1024m
-Xmx2048m
This is not to resolve Eclipse problem... which might be happening because of some display issues I suspect.
Instead of hard reboot you can press keystrokes Ctrl+Alt+F1 together to reach console and there you can login to a text based terminal and kill the Eclipse process.
more a comment than an answer, but I cant add you a comment yet.
I'm kinda using the same setup: Ubuntu 11.04 64bit with Eclipse Indigo SR1 RC3 64-bit (buildid 20110909, didnt had time or need to update to a newer release yet, but RC3 is stable for me). Make sure, you have installed the 64-bit version of Eclipse.
OpenJDK in combination with Eclipse didnt went well for me, so I changed to java-sun jdk 1.6/7. Make sure Eclipse is not referencing to the OpenJDK installation instead of java-sun jdk.
I had some issues with Eclipse Indigo (pre SR1) freezing in combination with SVN Subversive/m2eclipse plugins. For me it got better with the SR1 (RC3), but still not perfect (a freeze now and then). A while later Subversive SVN had an update, and now it's stable again. In short: make sure, you have installed the newest plugin versions (use eclipse update sites, no local copies). Older versions might lead to the same problems I experienced.
What other plugins are you using, can you verify if your Eclipse crashes without any plugins installed?
Two other issues I'm aware of: with Ubuntu Karmic Koala (9.10) rendering UI elements was broken/lead to crashes as well (GTK_NATIVE_WINDOWS). Later Eclipse had problems with the native scrollbars (think it was with Ubuntu 10.10 or 11.04). I'm pretty sure, problem 1 aint an issue anymore with Eclipse Indigo + 11.04. Problem 2 I'm not sure if it was 10.10 or 11.04. But I still start my eclipse with the following script.sh and it works for me, you could give it a shot as well:
#!/bin/bash
export LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0
export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=false
exec $(dirname $0)/eclipse "$#"
Try upgrading the kernel to the latest version. I think this lock up is caused by the kernel bug detailed on this page https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/924905
While you wait for better answers, I would definitely try a virtual machine like Virtual Box to:
Try to see if I can replicate the problem in a Virtual environment, which is similar to your actual environment. This way you can see if the problem the combination of the versions of software that you're using or your physical hardware.
Run Eclipse through the VM. It may not crash and will prevent you from having to do a full re-boot of the system, until you determine what the actual problem is.
I have a similar problem. From time to time it happens that the complete X11 desktop freezes. I can still move the mouse but clicks on elements have no effect.
In this situation I switch to the text console and kill eclipse. After I did that, everything works again.
I am using a laptop with an Intel graphics chipset. So I tend to blame it on the the graphics driver.
I have other computers with different graphics hardware where I haven't noticed the problem, but I don't use eclipse that often on them. On all I am using Ubuntu 11.10 64bit with gnome or unity desktop.
I have the same issues. It is very inconvenient. I have just confirmed that killing eclipse fixes the issue for me.
However, I have found something strange in that I can still click on the stupid overlay scrollbars. It's like they have the focus of the entire system.
What seems to have fixed the issue to me was to install the gnome shell and start using gnome 3, then turn off the overlay scrollbars in the startup scripts for X. I installed gnome 3 for a separate reason and disabled the scrollbars because I find them annoying, but I do find that this has solved the problem for me. You may be able to get away with just disabling the scrollbars, information for which is readily available on google.
