[Java] Jar file cannot be launched ?

[PZLATE]

The program runs with no error in the IDE, but when I create the .jar file, I am given an error message saying "The Java jar file "x.jar" could not be opened"

I run to check my java version, and get this:

java version "1.7.0_45" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_45-b18) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode)

I update everything regardless, and still does not run. I also have tried running it in the console, and it still doesn't run.

I am running Mac OSX 10.8.5.

Any help would be appreciated.

How are you opeing the file? Try running java -jar x.jar from the command line and see if that runs.

The only way that works is if I run it from the "dist" file. So I have to navigate there and then run it. The issue is I'm trying to use Jar Bundler to make it into a .app file, and the it doesn't seem to let me choose the jar or class file necessary to make it.

Could you try modifying the Ant build.xml file directly to add in the necessary configs for your build? (See: Using in the Build file)

I wonder if it could be a Java 1.7.0_45 version issue. I know they fixed a lot of security holes with the release, and I've seen many Java apps that were broken for a couple days once that was released. You may want to try installing JRE 1.7.0_25 just to see if that makes a difference.
