I think Thangalin hits the nail on the head. Apart from sometimes not being able to start Azureus, and needing to restart it often because of stalls, running it from the CLI and viewing the debug output was rather worrying as well (many exceptions being thrown). This fixed it perfectly for me (solid transfers, zero exceptions):
Install Sun JRE (I have excellent results with 1.5): $ sudo apt-get install sun-java5-jre Start Azureus with the Sun java binaries as follows: $ JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.11 azureus (if you have a look at the /usr/bin/azureus script you see that $JAVA_HOME/bin/java will be used if $JAVA_HOME is set) I also used the Azureus2.jar file from the 2.5.0.4 download, but I feel this didn't matter much. -- [feisty]azureus wont open after update of java https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83594 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
