Hi !

I had the exact same problem on RedHat Linux 7.0. Tried to change owner/group to
be exactly like they are for the installation directory of SN452, but it didn't
work.

I also have a question concerning hyper : when I try to execute hyper from the
bin directory (logged as root) it gives me this error message :

                        Error: unknown encoding "iso8859-1"

SourceNavigator works when I'm logged as a root, but I didn't try all its
functionalities. I don't know if this error message is a big problem or not, I
just wanted to let you know.

If somebody knows how to solve those permissions, it'd be great. I would really
prefer not to work as root all the time.

I posted a question concerning Java some time ago, without any luck : I wonder
if there is some way to get those instance variables types when analyzing Java
code. They are not in the database (.iv file). Is it too hard to change the Java
parser ? Any suggestions ?

Thanks in advace.

Kind regards,
Marta.
