Hi Keith You got it. I wasn't aware of the new java version. I reinstalled JAI and the Image IO tools and all is working now.
Thanks a lot.

I think that the problem was that we had installed a 32-bit version of the JAI Image I/O tools on a machine with a 64-bit architecture. Not sure, but in any case, when we installed the 64-bit version of the Image IO tools (for us, from the file jai_imageio-1_1-lib-linux-amd64.tar.gz ), everything started working. I'm not sure what would be causing the problem in your case. Is it possible that something has changed on your machine recently? Is there a new version of Java installed that might not have the Image IO tools installed?
