Setup wizard launches each time (Linux)
 

Has anyone experienced the problem where the setup wizard launches each time LimeWire is started, or is this normal behavior?

Try making sure you actually exit the progam correctly. What distro are you running?

This is happening to me as well. I have downlaoded the latest verison as of 11-18-2002. I exit the app normally and when I start it up it brings up the wizard. Also, it displays this error message

Im on a Red Hat Linux system

LimeWire version 2.7.6
Java version 1.3.1_02 from Sun Microsystems Inc.
Linux v. 2.4.18-18.8.0 on i386

hmmm
 

It looks like something is screwed up with where you installed LimeWire, as it is having FileNotFound errors.

Try uninstalling and reinstalling.

It may just be a bug with red hat distros, though I doubt it, it is a possiblity.

.. okay, there is a fix for my original problem a few threads down under the heading "first use assumed"
