Re: I broke RDi - Cannot start it

Thanks for that.
I have looked for documentation on what command line options are available
for RDi. Can you show me where the documentation is for this?
Is there a user/technical manual for how to start RDi with command line
options?

Use the -data parm, for example in the shortcut that you use to start RDI
add " -data C:\workspaces\myworkspace" (sans quotes) then try restarting
RDI

Try with a new workspace.
Presumably it may be trying to open that file in an editor at startup.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] I broke RDi - Cannot start it

I was attempting to open a large XML file in the eclipse XML perspective.
Eclipse/RDi froze and I closed the app.
Now RDi will not start.
Tried doing the -Clean start; as admin; and still not getting it.

I get a window 'An error has occurred. See the log file C:\Users\ ....
Etc .

The .log file shows the following....
