Hello everyone,

I am having some trouble setting up MarketRunner on Ubuntu 9.10. Whenever I try to run one of the sample strategies I get the following exception trace:

Exception in thread "main" java.util.NoSuchElementException

Any suggestions?

   Hi Alex,

   Thanks for this report. Sorry you are having this issue. The good news is that we are routinely using Ubuntu 9.10 for development, so we are in a good position to work on it.

   Our guess is that you are using gcj, which is an open source version of Java. It used to be widely available with Ubuntu, though our understanding is that Ubuntu 9.10 does not come with it by default anymore.
   Unfortunately, gcj is known to have a number of problems. We recommend that you install & use Sun's JDK instead (which we use for development) or Open JDK if you'd rather use an open source flavor of Java (we don't use Open JDK all the time, but we do occasionally test with it).

   If you are not familiar with installing Sun JDK on Ubuntu Karmic, here is a good starting point: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java.

   For the future, we'll see how we can made that issue clearer in our code.

   I hope this helps,

   Eric

   I did install the Sun IDK (1.6) as instructed by your "Install MarketRunner" page, and it seems that is the one that is in use by default:
   

   $ update-java-alternatives -l java-6-sun 63 /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun

   Disregard that last post. It was the JRE not the JVM that was pointing to the gcj version. Fixed by running

   sudo update-alternatives --config java

   Thanks for the help.
