Java crashes running ldap browser

[tuharsky]

I run ldap browser editor using
/usr/bin/java -jar lbe.jar

The program starts, however connecting to LDAP directory it crashes with:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
   at javax.swing.JTree.setLeadSelectionPath(libgcj.so.70)
   at javax.swing.JTree.clearSelection(libgcj.so.70)
   at lbe.ui.DirTree.clear(DirTree.java:119)
   at lbe.ui.Browser.disconnect(Browser.java:392)
   at lbe.ui.Browser.openConnectWindow(Browser.java:377)
   at lbe.ui.Browser.init(Browser.java:326)
   at lbe.ui.BrowserApp.main(BrowserApp.java:251)

I must point out that using Sun java installed from binary self extracting file jre-6u1-linux-i586.bin
, it works well.

Please post the Ubuntu version and jre version you're using.

See all the lines that show "libgcj.so"? That means you're using the GCJ JRE. From what you've posted so far this does not look like a sun-java bug.

[James Stansell (jamesstansell)]

Appears to be a GCJ issue.

[tuharsky (tuharsky)]

May be, that I have both Java installations active. Last I have installed the Java6 because of Firefox, however might the GCJ been kept as the system default.

Now with 8.10 I get this:

Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from lbe.jar

The program just shows "loading LBE" that disappears in a moment.

[tuharsky (tuharsky)]

Still not working..
