Hi: I've got a MacBook Pro I've set up with a couple of User accounts for myself. I installed and launched the standalone version of FlexBuilder on my main account (I installed FB into an Applications directory above the level of the Users directory).
Then I logged into the other account and tried to launch FB, but it won't launch, and generates an error message directing me to look at a log file. Examining the log, this is some of what I see: dhcp-98:/Volumes/Muninn/Applications fluid$ cat Adobe\ Flex\ Builder\ 2/ configuration/1168998280031.log !SESSION 2007-01-16 17:44:39.943 ----------------------------------------------- eclipse.buildId=unknown java.version=1.5.0_06 java.vendor=Apple Computer, Inc.

By default the platform writes its content under the current working directory when the platform is launched. Use the -data parameter to specify a different content area for the platform. Anyone else run into this? Is this some sort of licensing check? I though about trying to launch FB providing the -data flag -- how would I supply this arg to FB through the terminal? I'd like the ability to run FB from multiple accounts on my machine w/o having to install multiple instances of it... Thanks for any pointers! Ward
