mview on linux or solaris

when I want to open a file with mview 5.1.3 on solaris or linux, I get an error. Please see attached TRACE files

To be able to check the issue we need more info.





How did you launched Marvin? Did you use the desktop launcher (MarvinView) that is created by the installer or you used the Unix shell script (mview)?





Do you get the same result with both launchers (MarvinView, mview)?





Where is your Java located? Are there anything in CLASSPATH system environment variable?

The error is with using mview, located at /export/home/lweber/ChemAxon/JChem/bin/mview ... this is in the path. the applications opens the window and when clicking open, it crashes...





using the desktop launcher with


/bin/sh "/export/home/lweber/ChemAxon/MarvinBeans/MarvinView"


after a while the application opens and when clicking open, nothing happens....





using MarvinSketch either with the launcher or msketch works nicely ...





using MarvinSpace either with the launcher or mspace does not work at all... (no window opens)





echo $CLASSPATH gives


/export/home/lweber/ChemAxon/JChem/postgresql-8.3-603.jdbc4.jar





java is at /usr/bin and its version


java version "1.6.0_11"


Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_11-b03)


Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.0-b16, mixed mode)

It a very strange issue.





I've checked the code that where the error is thrown.

Code:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException    at chemaxon.marvin.common.swing.MolPanel.openMolfile(MolPanel.java:4513

If we can believe to the stack trace, Marvin can not load chemaxon.marvin.common.swing.modules.LoadSave class. But this class presents in jchem.jar.





So, theoretically, it should work.





I suggest to update to the latest version (5.1.4). Several bugs are fixed in the last release. Hopefully, the new Marvin/JChem solves the problem.

thanks, after installing 5.1.4 MarvinView and mview worked, Marvinpace and mspace still do not start.

I've tried out MarvinSpace application 5.1.4 under my Ubuntu Linux (8.0.4). It works without any error.





Do you see any error message in the terminal window where you run MarvinSpace?

the error is:

And what you get by starting bin/mview?

Have you tried other jogl apps? like the most common gears. Does this work at all?

Thanks - that was the problem on the 2 computers where we have tried. We have fixed this and it works now.
