Bronson,
From the crash log that you sent me, it appears that Java cannot find any fonts. I suspect that a more descriptive error message gets logged in the system console.
Can you open the /Applications/Utilities/Console application and see if there are any messages with the word "Exception" in them? If so, can you paste the error messages here.

|
I cleared the console and then tried to launch NeoOffice/j
Heres what got written to the console:
Apr 12 08:09:43 ssi-bronson crashdump: Unable to determine CPSProcessSerNum pid: 2109 name: soffice.bin
Apr 12 08:09:43 ssi-bronson crashdump: Started writing crash report to: /Users/aa1zb/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/soffice.bin.crash.log
Apr 12 08:09:46 ssi-bronson crashdump: Finished writing crash report to: /Users/aa1zb/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/soffice.bin.crash.log
That is all that came up. There wasn't anything with the word "Exception" in it.
What's next? |

Bronson,
I have narrowed down the problem to a small section of code. My theory is that one or more of your fonts are corrupted or are in a format that Java cannot handle and, at startup, when I iterate through all of the fonts, my code breaks when it hits a bad font.
I have posted a patch for you to try out. This patch tries to handle bad fonts more gracefully. I am not sure if it will fix the problem. If it does not, let me know and I will try a different approach:
1. Download my test patch from http://www.planamesa.com/neojava/downloads/patches/NeoOfficeJ-0.8.2-patch-experimental.tar.gz.
2. Install the patch using the same steps as "patch-2" at http://www.planamesa.com/neojava/download.php#install.
3. Run NeoJ and see if it crashes.
Thanks for your help,
Patrick |

I ran the patch. Then I ran the program and it failed but did not list anything in the console.log
I rebooted.
Ran the program again... NeoOffice/J fall down and go boom... nothing in the console log.
I erased the previous crash report, and launched NeoOffice/J once more. The program crashed, so I sent you an email with the latest crash report. Once again there was no activity in the console.log |

Nope that didn't work either.
The crash report is "in the mail". |
