Usually I run Openrefine with my laptop and it worked very nicely

But right after I tried to run Openrifine with my desktop, it didn't work

I downloaded OpenReFine 2.6-rc2 Release Candidate 2 version and the error message is like

HTTP ERROR 503

Problem accessing /. Reason:

    java.lang.NullPointerException

Caused by:

javax.servlet.UnavailableException: java.lang.NullPointerException
	at org.mortbay.jetty.servlet.ServletHolder.makeUnavailable(ServletHolder.java:415)
	at org.mortbay.jetty.servlet.ServletHolder.initServlet(ServletHolder.java:458)

	at com.google.refine.Refine.init(Refine.java:114)
	at com.google.refine.Refine.main(Refine.java:108)



Also tried with 2.5 version but when I put some order on it, always shows an message 'failed to apply change'

Both of version doesn't work

If there is anybody who experienced same errors and solve this problem, advice me please

Sorry for bad English and thanks for read this

Sorry to hear that you are having problems. What operating system and version are you using? What Internet browser?

Tom

Hi Marek

Can you share any information about your setup:

Operating system

Browser

Version of OpenRefine

Any information from the OpenRefine console (the text command window that appears when you run OpenRefine)

This will help us work out what is happening

Thanks

Owen

Hi Owen,

my setup is:

Win 10

Browser: Mozilla or Chrome

OpenRefine 2.8

The problem started when I tried to use OpenRefine 3.0. I thought that its a problem with Java. After that I reinstall Java SE and nothing happened.

There is a message when the browser start:

HTTP ERROR 503

Problem accessing /. Reason:

    java.lang.NullPointerException

And this is info from OpenRefine console:

Your current configuration is set to use 4086M of memory.

OpenRefine can run better when given more memory. Read our FAQ on how to allocate more memory here:
