Description Brad 2010-06-29 03:58:30 CDT 
I seem to have stumbled across a fairly show stopping bug: Fiji crashes whenever it loads an image, or tries to run any interpreter via the scripting menu.  GUIs work okay, file dialogs work fine, but any attempt to open an image using them (e.g. the Bio-formats importer) crashes.

The error message would implicate Java as the culprit, but I've updated it, reinstalled, uninstalled and am now running with Fiji's included JDK, all to no avail.  Both the website snapshot and compiling from git produce this error.  I'm running Windows XP, 32-bit, with an ATI Radeon X600 and ~4gb of ram.

Crash dump file:

# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (16.3-b01 mixed mode windows-x86 )
# Problematic frame:
# C  [awt.dll+0x34baa]

# If you would like to submit a bug report, please visit:

# The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code.

Comment 1 Johannes Schindelin 2010-06-29 12:04:16 CDT 
Can you try again with the --system option (i.e. forcing Fiji to launch ImageJ with the system Java, to make sure that the issue is not the Fiji launcher)?
Comment 2 Brad 2010-06-29 19:16:32 CDT 
Yes, it still crashes using the system Java.  

Additionally, I'm noticing that it's also crashing when it tries to update Fiji.  This happens on startup when it's called via fiji.exe, without using the --config option.  With it, or via Build.sh, it apparently doesn't check and doesn't crash.  Checking for updates manually at that point works up to the window where you actually install the upgrade, and then it crashes.

Just for kicks, I deleted Java entirely again, did a Build.sh clean, then a git reset --hard, and recompiled.  No change, still crashy.  All errors are the same: something in awt.dll, apparently.

Have you tried with one of the latest jdk such as 1.6.0_21 ? Many JVM bugs were fixed.
Comment 4 Johannes Schindelin 2011-03-23 14:55:27 CDT 
I fear this is related (or identical to) bugs 104, 126, and 129. Not much we can do about it, except maybe check whether starting Fiji via

/path/to/Fiji.app/Contents/MacOS/fiji-macosx -Dapple.laf.useScreenMenuBar=false --

fixes the crash... Could you do that?

Oops. I missed the fact that this is a Windows issue, not a MacOSX issue. Nevertheless, from a quick Google search it appears that the problem should be resolved by updating the graphics card driver. If not, please reopen the bug with the information provided by the Help>Report a Bug plugin.
