"Error (possible bug) exporting results (Linux)"

RichardF

Hi All,

  I am running Rapidminer in Ubuntu Linux 12.10 and my java version is 7 update 11.

  I have tried to export some results through the upper button in the right corner (the logo is a HD with a green arrow) but the dialog that comes up does not allow to select the type of file, (the drop down button is empty). Besides, the browse button does not work and pressing the OK button yields an error dialog box: "Error writing image file"  . The description of the error is the following:

java.lang.NullPointerException

    Find attached some screen captures too:



    I could not reproduce the same error using Rapidminer in Windows, however all linux versions I have used yield the same error pressing the same button.

  Thank you in advance for your responses,
Richard

Hm, that certainly looks like a bug. We are to release RapidMiner 5.3 within the next few hours, can you please retry with the new version then?

Best regards,
Marius

HI Marius,

  Thanks for your response. I will try with 5.3.

  I have added a new bug to the bug tracker http://bugs.rapid-i.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1409 anyway.

Cheers
