Have Servoy 3.35 running splendidly on my Cento5 server, but here is the glitch.

First, I installed java1.6 and adjusted with alternatives - java to set as primary.  
server\_developer starts asdn runs fine.  
servoy\_server, on hte other hand , java dows not start. I have to use ./servoy\_server.sh &,  
then , ./servoy\_server . sh command again for the java to begin.  
Cannot figure out why. Have looked at the sh file and is same as on my debian pc.  
Any idea why I have to run command a second time to get java up?

Are you sure the shell script is using the correct classpath and using the correct path for java?
