Exception in thread "main" ...

Hi all,

I just did the following:
installed RedHat 7.3
installed j2re from Sun
downloaded and installed limewire self-extracting installer from limewire.com

The installation went fine.
When I tried to execute ./runLimeWire the following error was reported:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: lax/nl/java/option/java/stack/

After a lot of fiddling around I tracked this down to a mistake in the LimeWire/LimeWire.lax file. The line:

lax.nl.java.option.java.stack. size.max=65536

Should not have had a space between stack. and size. Removing this space made everything peachy.

I guess this is a bug in InstallAnywhere / LaunchAnywhere.

Hope this helps someone.

Had that problem, indeed. Works now. Thanks a lot...

Goodness, you just saved me from giving up on Limewire at the last minute. I would not have figured that out on my own in years.

Love those message boards!

Awesome... thanks for posting this.
I'm surprised this problem hasn't been fixed yet.
Seems somewhat critical to any linux users installing limewire.

thanks!,
