Don, Now that I'm here at my workstation running the IDV, it seems it doesn't send error messages to the console when it crashes, but there are a bunch of error.log files getting written to the directory IDV_1.0.1 directory where I installed it and where it is run. I've attached one three of about 20 that were written when I clicked Data -> New Data Source from the Data Selector window. more later ..
Thanks. It looks like the system is crashing when it tries to make the wait cursor: An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM. Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0x676c7a6a Function name=XtWindowOfObject Library=/usr/X11R6/lib/libXt.so.6 Current Java thread: at sun.awt.motif.MComponentPeer.setCursor(Native Method) at sun.awt.motif.MGlobalCursorManager.setCursor(MGlobalCursorManager.java:35) at sun.awt.GlobalCursorManager._updateCursor(GlobalCursorManager.java:203) at sun.awt.GlobalCursorManager.access$100(GlobalCursorManager.java:18) at sun.awt.GlobalCursorManager$1.run(GlobalCursorManager.java:33) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(InvocationEvent.java:149) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:332) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.jav a:126) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java: 93) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:88) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:80) I'm not sure why it doesn't do this from the other window, though. I might have you try a different java version at some point. What OS and version is this running? Is /home/rockwooda local to this machine or on the server?
