I experienced the exact same problem when running Stanbol on an Windows machine last Monday. It is definitely related to an Issue of the Apache Sling FileInstaller bundle. As I was offline the last week I had not yet time to investigate this further, but I do plan to find the cause and to provide a patch for this. In the meantime windows users should 0. start the Stanbol Launcher 1. uninstall the Apache Sling FileInstaller bundle 2. install the Felix File install bundle [1] 3. shutdown Stanbol 4. create/empty the 'stanbol/fileinstall' 5. copy your configuration to the 'stanbol/fileinstall' folder 6. start stanbol by adding the '-Dfelix.fileinstall.dir=stanbol/fileinstall' (on windows you might need to use '-Dfelix.fileinstall.dir=stanbol\fileinstall') NOTE: It is important to delete the Apache Sling FileInstaller bundle. You can not use both the Felix Fileinstall and the Sling Fileinstall. Even if you use different folders the two will block out each other after the 2nd start of the Stanbol launcher. Users that do use custom launcher configuration, can also replace the "Apache Sling FileInstaller bundle" with the "Felix File install bundle" in this case steps 0 - 4 can be skipped. best Rupert [1] http://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails|org.apache.felix|org.apache.felix.fileinstall|3.2.6|bundle -- | Rupert Westenthaler rupert.westentha...@gmail.com | Bodenlehenstraße 11 ++43-699-11108907 | A-5500 Bischofshofen
