  • Hi,

    Yes, sorry about that. It's a known issue, and the installer for LoadUI should warn you about this (and provide a workaround) if you're running Mountain Lion.

    In the upcoming version of LoadUI, this won't be an issue.

    Regards

    What is the status of this being fixed? I would love to get this working again. Thanks.

    All of the forum posts that say get the nightly build have links that don't work so I can't get it. Thanks.

    Agreed,

    All the million articles, "fixes" on this board or blogs I've read about this are absurd - nothing works. And it is really sad when the "official" fix takes you to a nightly build link that is 1.5, when the current version is 2.1.1 - wth?

    Regarding "the JDK 1.7 logo just sits on top of everything forever and LoadUI doesnt start.. i had to removed JDK7 and then use jdk6 for it to work again.", I have one question - when you do regress to Java 6, is that just the runtime or also do you have to remove the jdk/jre environment that eclipse uses for instance? Can you please provide instructions to do this? Again, the instruction on this site and other places are incorrect. Thanks so much if you can help. Also, any link for the java 6 jre that you loaded on mac? Did you do this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5559?viewlocale=en_US ?

    I have same symtoms. The java 7 logo sits there with the dots increasing/decreasing and nothing happens. I have to kill the process.

    I am on macbook pro: OS X Lion 10.7.5

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Henrik,
    I would appreciate "official" instructions on this if you can assist please on what I am asking above. My email is otwoblue@gmail.com.
