(First time poster =) ) I'm having problems starting the Blackberry JDE. I installed the Java 2 SDK (j2sdk-1_4_2_07) and then installed JDE_4.0 from the Blackberry website. Everything seems to install fine, and I can start all the simulator apps (Device, MDS, etc.). The problem is when I start the JDE, I see a Windows shell flash up twice and then nothing happens.

Any ideas?? I have tried the 3.7 and 4.0 JDEs

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,
Rick =)

Same thing is happening to me. I installed it in a Windows 2000 notebook and no problem. I installed it in a Windows XP desktop I get the same problem: "I see a Windows shell flash up twice and then nothing happens"

Has anybody know a solution?

Thanks,

I got it.
I've found an old thread.

Need to have the full path of the javaw in ide.bat....and it works!!

The same goes for the full path to java.exe if you want the mds to run during a debug. I recently installed some Oracle stuff and it overwrote and killed much of the stuff needed to run the JDE. I had to re-download and re-install it. I had to edit the paths in both the ide.bat and the load.bat in order to get everything back up and going. I don't remember ever having to do this in the past when I set up the JDE. Am I forgetting it or did something change?
