Hi Michael,

You may be seeing the same result (i.e., the launch apparently failing) but
not for the same reason as Rankin. The JDE is not getting a response from
the debugger after commanding it to launch your test app. I see nothing
obviously wrong with your setup. One possibility is that javaw takes a long
time to start on your system. If the debugger does not respond to a command
within ten seconds, the JDE assumes something is wrong and gives up. If in
fact the problem is slow startup, you can fix it be customizing
jde-bug-debugger-command-timeout. Try setting the timeout factor to a large
value, say 20 seconds.
