Re: GUI Error

At last - some progress! I tried double clicking on the file guiserver.jar itself and got exactly the same error message. Then I right clicked and looked at the 'open with' option. Surprisingly I was given a choice of the java platform binary three time over. I tried all three. One of them lets me g...
