Presumably there is more info about the java error after the IllegalArgumentException line. Please report all that output. The java program has crashed and that explains your symptoms. The important question is why.

If you try it 20 times does it sometimes work?

In your experiences with the t beta is it possible that in trying different users you were trying java versions 1.5 and 1.4 with the 1.5s failing and the 1.4s working?

Could you try J504 in the same environment? If j601 fails as you describe and j504 works then it is most likely a J problem. But if both j504 and j601 fail in a similar manner then it is possible that the java install is damaged.

It would help if other linux beta testes seeing the same problem said so. Or if you are running j601 with 1.4 or 1.5 without problem then that would also be useful info.

I'm having trouble with installing the v beta for linux32,
and would appreciate any advice.

Jconsole works just fine (so I conclude I've followed the installation instructions correctly). However, if I start jw, I see the two new windows, "welcome to J" and 1.ijx In 1.ijx there is a flashing cursor, but neither window will respond to any mouseclick inside them, or keystroke. The windows can be selected moved, resized closed etc in the usual way

In the shell window,  j601/jw gives java.lang RunTime Exception:
java.lang IllegalArgumentException: objectis not an instance of declaring class.

and which java gives
/usr/java/jre1.5.0_06/bin/java
and java -version gives
java version "1.5.0_06" ....

I had the same problem with the t beta, except that in the end
I did get a successful install of t beta by trying the install
in several different usernames on different systems. Sometomes it worked, sometomes not.
In all cases I had the same Linux (Mandriva 2006)

Is there anything I can do to gather more information?

Many thanks

The vbeta for Linux is available at:
http://www.jsoftware.com/download/j601vbeta_linux.tar.gz

This beta fixes minor problems with
glwindoworg/glpixels/glqpixesl/glpaint/glclear.

In these final weeks and betas we encourage you to move promptly to each
beta as it is released to maximize your beta testing effectiveness.
