When opening openLCA "Open editor has encountered a problem"
I have installed the 64 bit version of openLCA on a 64bit Windows 7 machine. Whenever I open the program I am greeted by the following message:
'Open editor' has encountered a problem.
An internal error has occurred.
<< Details
An internal error has occurred.
java.lang.StackOverflowError
A window opens but in the "Welcome" tab nothing appears.

Re: When opening openLCA "Open editor has encountered a prob
Hm, "greeted"... possible reasons could be not enough memory for the application (the 64bit version takes 3GB RAM by default, according to the ini file that is contained in the install pack). Can you maybe post or send more details, e.g. the log file?
Thanks,
Andreas
- windows installation are really not complicated any more, if you for whatever reason cannot solve it you can also simply uninstall openLCA and then use the zip archive that we also provide, extract it, and start openlca.exe. Your databases folder will be preserved. Make sure to have sufficient memory though or reduce it if needed in the openlca.ini file

Re: When opening openLCA "Open editor has encountered a prob
The machine has 8GB of memory, so I doubt that is the issue. Also, the problem appears also with the 32bit version of openLCA 1.4, but not with openLCA 1.3.4. Where do I find a log file to post? Also, I noticed that both 32bit and 64bit versions of openLCA install in the C:\Program Files (x86)\openLCA directory (which seems unorthodox for the 64bit version) and if I try to install one version after the other, the second installation actually fails. I first need to uninstall the previous version of openLCA and manually remove the directory, as the uninstall program seems to fail as well.

Ah I see, is it possible that you do not have full access rights to the program folder? By default, openLCA is installed in the user directory, in Windows, where a user has access rights. Can you login as admin and uninstall, and then install again into your user directory. Or, as mentioned in my previous post, use the zip archive for openLCA.

Re: When opening openLCA "Open editor has encountered a prob
I definitely don't have user access to the directory. By default the directory is installed as "Read-only". I could not even modify the .ini file with notepad. However, I have now downloaded and unpacked the openLCA 1.4 zip version in a directory on the Desktop and removed the Read-only flag on the directory in C:\Program Files (x86)\openLCA but the same problem persists.

- so that is then the issue.I definitely don't have user access to the directory
: and? On your desktop, this problem should not exist.I have now downloaded and unpacked the openLCA 1.4 zip version in a directory on the Desktop
Re: When opening openLCA "Open editor has encountered a prob
This problem still exists (even when running the program as Administrator), and it has nothing to do with file permissions. How do I get the log file? How do I debug this? My bet is that there is something the program relies on that is usually installed on Windows 7 64bit but not on my installation of Windows 7 64bit.

please see above:

Re: When opening openLCA "Open editor has encountered a prob
There was only a 1410824789743.log file in the "C:\Users\%%USER%%\openLCA-data-1.4\" directory (see attached). I am not sure if this relates to the issue though.
