I've broken my phex

[lluisanunez]

I'm using phex 2.4.2.86 on Linux fedora and it worked fine till today when
I've been playing with the skins. Now when I try to run phex it crashes. On the console it gives the following error messages:

java.lang.NullPointerException
        at phex.gui.common.GUIUtils.darkerColor(Unknown Source)
        at phex.gui.common.PhexColors.updateColors(Unknown Source)
        at phex.gui.common.GUIUtils.updateComponentsUI(Unknown Source)
        at phex.gui.common.LookAndFeelUtils.setLookAndFeel(Unknown Source)
        at phex.gui.common.GUIRegistry.initializeGUISettings(Unknown Source)
        at phex.gui.common.GUIRegistry.initialize(Unknown Source)
        at phex.Main.main(Unknown Source)

I tried deleting the config file /home/lluisa/.phex/phex.cfg with no effect. How can I revert to the old config?

Look for the file phexgui.xml

Before deleting it, it would be nice if you could tell what is written in the fourth line starting with <look-and-feel-class>.

Thanks,

Thanks, Gregor.
Here are the 4 lines following "<look-and-feel-class>"

<look-and-feel-class>com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel</look-and-feel-class>
        <is-toolbar-visible>true</is-toolbar-visible>
        <window-posX>103</window-posX>
        <window-posY>25</window-posY>
        <window-width>811</window-width>
        <window-height>651</window-height>

After deleting the phexgui.xml file it should work again...

BTW: According to the change log this issue was fixed with 2.6, but I would recommend you to use the latest version 2.8.2
