It runs fine for me with java 7 32-bit also. That is for both Linux and Windows. I haven't confirmed it but my guess is that the issue lies in using the 64-bit version of java. I'll test it more on 64-bit and try to fix any errors I come across.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>In the meantime, if you are having trouble and want to get it to work then make sure the 32-bit version is installed and that the PATH environment variable is set for that version.
