Re: WDSC Will not start

Mark,

You could try entering the following at a command prompt while in the 
install directory of the WDSc program:

wdsc -initialize {workspace}

For example:
 
C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere Studio\Site Developer\v5.1.2>wdsc 
-initialize "C:\Documents and Settings\PGMMJQ\My 
Documents\IBM\wdsc\workspace"

You may need to tailor the program install directory and the workspace 
directory depending on your installation.  I've solved a lot of problems 
using this technique (but not all).  I got it when I made a SupportLine 
call about some problems we were having.

subject: [WDSCI-L] WDSC Will not start

I'm having an issue with trying to start WDSC. Version is 5.1.2.5. When
I try to start the program, the banner will appear, for about two
seconds, disappear, then reappear. From there it just sits there.
Javaw.exe process runs to 99% and pretty much locks up the machine. I've
tried renaming the .config folder. Doesn't help. Any suggestions before
I have to reinstall this thing would be very helpful. 

Thanks,

Mark
