Mac OS X (Snow Leopard) Syncro SVN Client crashes

[adrian]

Hello,

We have been getting some reports of Syncro SVN Client crashes in Snow Leopard after updating the Apple Java Virtual Machine to the latest version 1.6.0_17.
These seem to be caused by JavaApplicationStub, the launcher itself of the application.

There are a few fixes/workarounds to avoid this:

1. Launch Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences and click the Restore Defaults button from the section Java Applications.

2. Another solution is to reinstall the Java VM 1.5 which has been removed following this last JVM update(This is only applicable if 1.5 no longer appears in Java Preferences). Installation instructions are given here:

3. The most successful workaround is to open a terminal, change directory to the Syncro SVN Client installation folder and execute sh syncroSVNClientMac.sh.

We are encouraging users who have encountered crashes to report if these workarounds have given them results.

Also make sure you are running the latest build of Syncro SVN Client (2009121814 - 2009 December 18th). If you are not, please download from here:

This build should also fix some graphical issues that appeared after the same JVM update.

Regards,
Adrian
