Well that is very encouraging to read, I must say! Java runs fine on my 
system, not got any problems other than getting JBX to debug on it and I 
had aweful problems with JBX refacotring (was greyed out) and project 
bulding until I realised that JBX has a problem (may be an underlying 
JVm issue but it ONLY affects JBX) with NFS-mounted directories. 
Basically it cannot read/write in certain cases to NFS directories 
although in other cases it can. Specifically refactoring went West on 
NFS-mounted dirs.

But the lack of debugging is driving me mad. I just cannot get debugging 
running under Mandrake 9.1 and I really don't think it's a Mandrake 
issue as ONLY JBX gives me grief and I run an huge number of Java apps 
onthis box including Sun's SunStudio dev env., Eclipse, Jdeveloper 
(Oracle) and lots of Oracle too (very heavy Java usage).

So I tend to not think that it's anything other than JBX config issues 
but it is almost impossible to get any info on what is wrong. It just 
comes up with

-- Cannot configure Java debug process arguments --

com.sun.jdi.connect.IllegalConnectorArgumentsException: Not listening

and that is that. Process exits.

As I said, none of the other Java dev environments fall over but I am 
soooo tired of developing under JB and then switching to another 
environment to debug! I use JB for its RAD and other environments for 
their debugging ability!

Crazy!!!!
