Azureus stopped working, problem with Java I think

It worked fine, then all of a sudden it just stopped working. Here's the output I get when I try to run it. How do I uninstall java? I don't really know what else to do but I figure a fresh install might help.

This is not really a Java error - ie you wont fix it by reinstaling Java.

As far as I can see, azureus is trying to call something that does not exist (Null pointer exep)
seems there is some problem with the congifurations, you could try to reinstall azureus, that may help

I have but azureus dosn't really install, you just extract it so it dosn't install any files or anything. Any other ideas? it worked fine then it just stopped.

did you delete the /home/user/.Azureus aswell? Settings are kept there

Did you move anything, or change anything? Sorry to say but these errors dont simply just happen, something must have changed

kryptobs2000 · 09-19-2005, 02:47 PM

I don't remember changing or moving anything, but I dunno. I'm not too great at working with linux although I've used it for over a year, I havn't tried to do much with it untill just recently, but I didn't delete the /home/user/.Azureus directory, that might help I'll try it. wierd stuff happens when you don't know what ur doing, I just seem to break things that work fine for no reason alot lol, but I'm learning alot lol.

kryptobs2000 · 09-19-2005, 03:11 PM

deleted that settings folder and everything is now fine, thanks.

Well, you have beaten me to it, so good luck in future

---orig. post------
I'm just asking, as I programmed in Java for over 4 years and the way I read the error message is that 'NULL'
was returned instead of a expected object ( I mainly had them if when the parser messed up)

Azureus is a torrent client? Never worked with them, but try removing, relocating all your current configuration
and if they exist, partial downloads and then try to run it.

Sometimes damaged partials can cause some bother.
