I ran another test, and confirmed that the problem is connected to using the GTK+ look-and-feel.
I discovered that if the configuration is changed so that it starts up with any of the following look-and-feels, it initializes normally: Metal Nimbus CDE/Motif After initializing with one of the above, I was able to change successfully to the GTK+ look-and-feel. But when I saved the configuration so that it will initialize next time using the GTK+ look- and-feel, the next time I tried to initialize it, it hung during initialization (at the point where it changes to the configured look- and-feel). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1520294 Title: Jabref (2.11.1, 2.11b3, 2.10) hangs after Java upgrade on Ubuntu 15.10 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jabref/+bug/1520294/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
