No windows, menu options grayed out... what's going on?

Post by The Fly »

Hello,

I've used Cyberduck many times, and never had a problem quite like this. All of a sudden, when I run Cyberduck, no windows appear, and when I click on a top-level menu option (Cyberduck/File/Edit/View/Go/Bookmark/Window/Help), every menu option that directly deals with Cyberduck is grayed out (I can still click on 'About Cyberduck,' Hide/Quit, Services... but nothing that woudl allow me to do anything within Cyberduck).

I just experienced this problem today for the first time, using v. 2.5. I tried restarting the app, and when that didn't work, I upgraded to 2.5.4. Same problem.

Has anyone experienced this? Any suggestions on what I can do to make Cyberduck work again?

I'm running OS 10.3.9.

Is it always running? You may want to restart your computer/cyberduck.

Also try if it works when logged in as a different user on your computer.

Thanks guys... I looked at that ticket and I think mine is the same issue. I added to it and reopened the ticket (hope that's not a faux pas or anything). I'll also try running it from another username.

EDIT: Okay, I tried it logged in as another user, and same deal. Any suggestions?

Looks like there is no solution to this problem. Anyone know of any other good FTP programs that are worth a try?

I am getting this same error. I've updated the ticket noting my problem too.

Did you find a way to resolve this?

If you haven't modified your Java installation (changing symbolic links) as described in the ticket by another user then reopen the ticket.

I think I changed the symbolic links when I upgraded to Java 1.5.

Is there a way for me to fix this? Or will I have to change the links back?

You have to change them back.

You have to change them back. See the comments in the ticket.

The Java update released today (Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE) 5.0 Release 4) solved this issue on my computer.
