5 years on, and your response and instructions are still useful! Electric was running one evening - but the next: nothing. Double clicking the .jar did nothing. When I tried to running from the command line I got the following:
*C:\>java -jar electric-9.04.jar* * * *Oct 02, 2013 7:47:37 PM com.sun.electric.Launcher main* *INFO: Current Java memory limit of 259MEG is too small, rerunning Electric with* *a memory limit of 512MEG* * * *Oct 02, 2013 7:47:37 PM com.sun.electric.Launcher main* *INFO: Setting maximum permanent space (2nd GC) to 512MEG* However, your post provided the solution and electric is running perfectly. Thanks for the 5 year old post!
