Hi Nikos thanks for your reply, still no success, I am sure it must be related to the JDK but no clue so far ..
To bad this situation because it inhibits the use of LAMS.
If somebody has any clue to this let me know
Thanks again Al

Al, if you try with another browser on a different computer, does it get stuck as well?

While you are at it, if you change the language for your user (My Profile --> Edit Profile), does it also get stuck?

I'll create a VM to test this shortly.

Thanks,

Ernie

Erni , sorry for the late reply, was busy giving lectures.
I tried several things, change language in the profile was one of it. I regenerated LAMS with en_AU language - non change, I really believe it has something to do with the JDK version used. I will try this weekend to use the original sun jdk in Ubuntu, and regenerate LAMS again. Do to time constrains, if I have no success with Ubuntu I will switch to OpenSuse where this problems do not appear. I will still further investigate the problem with Ubuntu but on a lover priority.
Will keep you informed
Al

Al, can you also delete the #sharedObjects folder from your laptop/desktop and attempt again? that's where flash caches stuff. See here for more info: http://tinyurl.com/kvhjzp

Hi Ernie your advised worked, the only problem is that I need Java6 and not Java5.. and with the Ubuntu javd 6 JDK I am able to reproduce the problem... I will try with sun Java 6 JDK to see if I can solve the problem with Ubuntu. Otherwise I switch to OpenSuse where the problem dosnt exist
Thanks for the help
