Developer crash from Java?

Hello All!

I read somewhere at Servoy that the latest versions of Sun Java were causing developer (ver 6) to crash.
Before I uninstall the current and put an older version of java on, please look at this error to confirm the crash is actually from java and not something else. If this is the fact, what version of Java do I need to back down to?

Here is the error and thanks for any assistance! (… forgot to mention it only crashes when I open smart-client in developer. Web client works fine)

GConf Error: Failed to contact configuration server; some possible causes are that you need to enable TCP/IP networking for ORBit, or you have stale NFS locks due to a system crash. See http://projects.gnome.org/gconf/ for information. (Details - 1: Failed to get connection to session: Did not receive a reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, or the network connection was broken.)
[root@localhost developer]#

BTW,

Here is the complete output on launching developer until it crashed and I got the above notice:

CRASHED Error in top of msg

Detox,

First, I see that you run developer as root, this should not be necessary, better to run it as a regular user.

We found an issue on Linux with the GTKLookAndFeel in developer.
It apparently cannot deal with SWT (eclipse gui lib) and AWT/swing being used together.

I have made a change related to the L&F in 6.0.2, please try that one.

Alternatively, you can set the L&F to MetalLookAndFeel in your swing.properties

swing.defaultlaf=javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel
