It doesn't seem to be UMS that is crashing but Java itself. reinstalled alpha1 and runs fine again.

Congratulations!
You have the recommended Java installed (Version 7 Update 25).

I forgot what the file is called but it might have dump in the name, or error or something. It's a file that Java (sometimes) generates by itself when it crashes

Are you refering to the java core file, which should have following naming convention on Windows and Linux (javacore.YYYYMMDD.HHMMSS.PID.txt)?

Yeah that's probably it. It should have a big lot of info inside which includes the cause of the crash

3 Alpha 1 is great but a2 causes java to crash cannot use it

Installing the jar with dependencies helped to workaround this issue (as suggested in another thread). Anyways, I couldn't locate any javacore dump file in my system for the distributed ums.jar crash, nor in ~JAVA_HOME/bin as google search suggested. If anyone knows the actual location of the file I'll happy to contribute it to help solve this issue.

Hi!
For those who tried Alpha 2 of UMS and it crashed, and if you are using a 64-bit version of Windows, it appears I had the same crash problem with Java latest Update 25. But, since it seems the Java updated with only the x86 version, it fix the problem if you search for and install "Java Update 25 64 bit" on Google. No crash anymore.

I've confirmed that the issue is with the 32-bit version of Java. So for those of you with 64-bit systems you can fix it by installing the 64-bit version of Java Runtime. I'm looking into fixes now.

Can you please compile Java 6 OSX release for older Macs too? If it's not too much trouble.
I think you already promised to do that.
