Azureus crashes after start

[Jan]

Binary package hint: azureus

Azureus crashs right after start. This happens only with the Ubuntu version of azureus. The vanilla Azureus from the official website runs without any problem. Also why is 2.5.0.0 and not the uptodate version 2.5.0.4 in Ubuntu included?
This is the output starting azureus from the terminal:

I get a similar error, without the backtrace. The problem is the same with Java 5 and Java 6. I'm attaching the .log file referenced in the error.

Chris, it seems like you are experiencing bug 68020, which at the moment looks unrelated to this one.

[Sam Brightman (sambrightman)]

Also, this bug looks like it might be related to a plugin rather than main Azureus. Lutz, what plugins have you installed for Azureus?

[Jan (jan23)]

I have the following plugins installed:
BitTorrent IRC Bot Plugin 2.2.2
IRC, Tracker Dynamic Pages, Tracker Static Pages 2.1.4
Rating 1.3.1

I don't know what they are for so probably some of them are installed by default?

[Marcos Silva Pereira (marcospereira)]

I catch the same error with a clean installation of azureus:

Lutz and Marcos: would be helpful to know which version you are using (of Java/of Azureus) and see the crash log specified in the report you got. Lutz, also which version are you using from the website - the same one or the latest?

[Saivann Carignan (oxmosys)]

The azureus 2.0.0.4 downloaded from azureus.com doesn't have this problem.

[Saivann Carignan (oxmosys)]

2.5.0.4 * sorry for the mistake

[Saivann Carignan (oxmosys)]

This particular bug is a duplicate of bug 57875 so I mark it as such. A fix as been already provided into Gutsy backports repositories. The version is 2.5.0.4-1ubuntu3~gutsy1.

Thanks to everybody who worked on this bug report. Feel free to report any other bugs you might find.
