I have try to downlod the latest version but I am getting the same error.
When I try to see parameters in the preference dialog, the righ pane of the preference screen it not changing when I select other options.
I am a litle bit lost...
This is installed on Windows Server 2008 R2. What is strange is that the problem occurs only with the administrator user and not with an other user who is also member of the administrators group.
Many thank for your help
Jko

Answer 1

When I click on View > Connections, Raptor does not do anything.
My coworker system has Windows 2000 and the same version of java. Beside that, there are so many other variables. I am not sure what to look for. Could you please give me more information on what to look for?
When I open Raptor, it does not display Connection Tab by default.
When I run Raptor from C:\Program Files\raptor\jdev\bin\raptor.exe, I get this output. Does it look normal?
