Bug Description
Ive been running two test systems for Gutsy, both are clean installs from alpha 4 and not upgrades. Running latest up to date packages as of today.
Running Azureus 2.5.0.4 from the tarballed binary they distribute, on both my systems (both Pentium 4 machines).
Azureus will crash every time I try to open torrent files, whether thru the dialogue box Open torrent... or by drag-and-dropping files on Azureus. Otherwise Azureus works, it seeds or downloads torrents that were already open. I think this behaviour started sometime after Gutsy alpha 4, but cannot confirm the exact time. Used to work well on both machines.
Bug is reproducable and happens every time on performing file adds. Have tried removing Azureus folders, both the .azureus and actual azureus ones, for trying a clean Azureus setup - no help.
I can post the Azureus logs if needed, I dont see anything weird there but then im not a programmer :)
I thought Id file this as a separate bug, since this differs imho from the other filed Azureus/Java bugs.
Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and trying to help make Ubuntu better. However, it seems that you are not using a software package provided by the official Ubuntu repositories. Because of this the Ubuntu project can not support or fix your particular bug. Please report this bug to the provider of the software package. Thanks!
If you are interested in learning more about software repositories and Ubuntu the following pages should be informative:

However, it sounds like there may be a valid Java bug lurking around here. What version of Java do you have installed? Can you attach the messages Azureus prints to the terminal when you run it & get it to crash from a terminal? You may also want to follow the steps in <https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Backtrace>.
