Hi Kevin,
I've had this issue a few times myself, but a mvn clean install seems to fix it.

To answer your question... installer-registry.properties is not a new file, though it was renamed a few months ago (it used to have a somewhat obscure name, can't quite remember what).

Anyway, the point of installer-registry.properties is to provide a lookup from name -> class for the various components that the default runtime (oai.runtimes:dflt module) bootstraps. In other words, when you type Isis --viewer dnd, the "dnd" is used to lookup the "Installer" (ie component factory) that implements ViewerInstaller and can be used to instantiate said viewer. Ditto for --persistor sql, and so on.

You'll find the file itself hidden away in src/main/resources for (oai.runtimes.dflt:runtime), ie https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/isis/trunk/runtimes/dflt/runtime/src/main/resources/org/apache/isis/runtimes/dflt/runtime/installer-registry.properties. We load it from the classpath (hence in src/main/resources).

Hmm... looks like something was out of sync. I did a "mvn clean
install" on trunk, and the error seems to have gone away!

I was trying to demonstrate the quick-start example on Monday, and
had the following launch error:

Exception in thread "main" 
org.apache.isis.core.commons.exceptions.IsisException: No resource found: 
installer-registry.properties

I am now trying to launch the "claims" example, and I get the same
error.. Is this something new? I don't recognise
"installer-registry.properties" ?
