Problem running (old) app created with eclipse [message #1793334] Sun, 05 August 2018 12:44 Go to next message

Hello,
Disclaimer: I am not a eclipse programmer.

I am a user of an old app (called Trainspotter) that used to work on my MacBooks. The program is not maintained anymore, the website is off air. The app has specific funcationality for DJ's that are not found in other apps.

The app was working perfectly on several (old and new) MacBooks until last week, when I updated my system from 10.12 Sierra to 10.13 high Sierra.

Ever since then, this 'Trainspotter' app fails to start.

I hope you can be of any help.

The app worked ok with java 1.6 and macOS 10.12.

When launching the first time in macOS 10.13, a message popped up stating I had to install java again, directing me to a download page of apple. So I did. No difference. Well, the message I had to install java was gone, but still the app will not load.

I have tried upgrading java but the error stays the same. I removed that java version again. Currently the command java -version show this:
java version "1.6.0_65"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_65-b14-468)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.65-b04-468, mixed mode)

which is the same as on an old MacBook where this app still works.

It points to a log file, which I attach in whole to this message and paste the lines that look informative below.
I hope any of you can point me in a right direction.
Thank you so much!
Kind regards
Maurice

It's possible that a security measure on macOS is messing with file locations. Try moving it to a different location.

Thank you very much for your reply.
I have moved the tree with the program to:
(a) my userdirectory. Same result.
(b) a networkdrive. Now, the program complains that the filesystem does not allow locking. I added "-Dosgi.locking=none" as a VM argument, as suggested by the error message. But after that, the program also quits with an error, just as in case (a)

Any more suggestions are definitely welcome.
