Zend Studio on Ubuntu/Fedora - Blank Screen Fix

Filed under: Linux, Coding — Jorge @ 12:15 pm

Out of the box, Zend studio just displays a blank screen on load. This is incredibly obnoxious since it takes forever to find how to fix this.

To fix this, modify: bin/runStudio_unix.sh , and replace the execute line with this:

../jre/bin/java -Dawt.toolkit=sun.awt.motif.MToolkit -Xms16m -Xmx256m \
-cp ZendIDE.jar:MRJToolkitStubs.zip:sftp.jar:axis.jar:commons-discovery-0.2.jar:\
commons-logging-1.0.4.jar:javaxzombie.jar:jaxrpc.jar:saaj.jar:wsdl4j-1.5.1.jar:jhall.jar:\
../docs/help.zip com.zend.ide.desktop.Main
