Aperature weirdness seemingly related to past problems

Andy Youstic
Greetings,

I'm a Sysadmin trying to troubleshoot a problem brought to me by one of my clients....

In essence, this program, v 2.1.5 is installed on our 10.8.5 macs running the latest Java 6 SE (60_5) and also 7u51. When the program is used to import a series of fits images, the customer is trying to place aperatures by clicking the "two circle" button and getting the pop up window to place green circles on the picture at particular coordinates.

The process seems to tail silently such that there is no response when the user left-clicks on the images. I think this *might* be related to http://astroimagej.1065399.n5.nabble.com/starting-multi-aperture-photometry-td100.html that was fixed previously.

I confirmed that this is using the Java 6 runtime at launch. We also use NFS mounted home directories, if that makes a difference.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Login to a 10.8 mac.
2. Launch AstroImageJ
3. Goto File/Import
4. Select series of images from filesystem.
5. Once imported, click the Aperature tool.
6. Click Place Aperatures....
7. You then get "crosshairs" and you should be able to place circles on any pixel of the images that you just imported, but nothing happens. (background hang, methinks)

I got the following exceptions after about an hour of trying to make it say....something...anything that was wrong :)

Hi Andy,
     Sorry you and your team are having problems with AIJ, and thanks for the detailed trouble report. Much appreciated. To help in duplicating the problem on my end, would it be possible to for you to forward me one or more of the images you were using when you captured the java error messages? If the images(s) are small enough to email, you can send them directly to me at karenacollins *aatt* outlook *ddoott* com. If the files are too large to email and you have a way to post them to an ftp site, let me know the link and I will grab them directly. I also have a dropbox account if neither of the above options will work.

Karen

Greetings,

Thanks for your response. I've sent you a small zip file of fits images from the researcher via the email above.
