[SOLVED] Some UI controls do not load when starting JMETER

glupa4e · 02-22-2015, 04:33 AM

Hello,

i am trying to get JMETER 2.11 running on my Slackware 14.1 x64 machine but i am facing problems.
What i did so far:
I downloaded the SlackBuild from http://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/1...-jmeter.tar.gz
I additionally had to download the source code from https://archive.apache.org/dist/jmet...meter-2.11.tgz.
I finally was able to install the package.
When i tried to start it by runnung jmeter in a console, the applcation started but as some of the controls did not load, it was in fact inoperable (Menu and other stuff was missing). Please see the attached screenshot. I have the following java version:

Code:

bash-4.2$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_51"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.4.6) (Slackware)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.51-b03, mixed mode)

I have the latest Eclipse version from the SlackBuilds repository and it is working fine for me.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

It is working fine here but I am using the following JVM:

Code:

Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_71-b14)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.71-b01, mixed mode)

Hello bosth and thank you for your reply.
I uninstalled the old version of OpenJDK that i had using pkgtool.
Then i went to http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slac...dk/pkg64/14.1/ and downloaded the latest build by AlienBob and installed it with installpkg. After restarting the computer, it all works fine for me.
Now i have:

Code:

bash-4.2$ java -version
java version "1.7.0_75"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.5.4) (Slackware)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.75-b04, mixed mode)

Thanks a lot!
