[1.0.1]Sikuli-IDE can not launch, after double click the script "runIDE"

Asked by XiaojunZhou

Hi, today, My Sikuli-IDE can not launch, after I double click the script "runIDE". And it has been waiting for interface(starting pls wait ). and I has another problem: in eclipse, I can not use methods like click(),find(), I must create a Region, like:
region = Region()
region.click("something.png")

I want to know why? Thank you!

in a command line window use
runIDE -d
and have a look at the created log file.

for use with Eclipse

this is not the log file, but the command line window output.

I want to see the produce log file in c:/SikuliX

But I already guess the problem:
you should delete the branch in the registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\JavaSoft\Prefs\org\sikuli\

... and take care not to use folder and filenames with Non-Ascii characters.

on your comment #2:
