But tentative / parallelly I tried to Launch it from the Same system the gateway is installed in,
and i was able to work without any problem

please look into this problem,

Crashes as such / problem as such should be fixed before the system can be opted for production

thanks

We have been unable to reproduce this issue. The underlying cause:

Error trying to coerce '-1' to a class java.lang.Integer

… makes me wonder if there aren’t some regional settings coming into play. What operating system are the two computers using, and what regional and language settings are they set to?

3

windows XP with Arabic Text Support
but i switched to english for text

4

And how about the machine(s) that it does work on. Any difference?

5

yes they are just english and arabic settings are not enabled on them

so, the problem must have been arriving from the Arabic Enabled laptops / systems

um…

6

Ok, that should help us narrow it down. Never would have guessed that -1 wouldn’t be considered a number. We’ll have to use a non-regional-aware number system for the system in question.

7

Middle Eastern Users by default has Arabic and English,
English OS with ARABIC Regional Language settings for date and time

8

Sure, that makes sense. Never would have guessed that it would mess up number parsing.

9

Trying to replicate this in-house so we can test it. I don’t even have an arabic option in my “Regional and Language Options” box - is it a windows add-on?

10

you can navigate to regional and language settings
and add language / check extend support to right to left languages
and under keyboard / languages select Arabic …

you may have to put windows installation cd when the system prompts,
