Incisive Enterprise Manager Blank Screen

snitkau

Hello,


I am running Incisive Enterprise Manager on a tiling window manager (dwm 6.0) and whenever I run vmanager, the second window that comes up (the actual incisive enterprise manager) is always a blank gray screen.


I had seen this before when using dwm to run certain programs, such as Matlab. In those cases, it had to do with the particular window-generating Java program assuming a reparenting window manager (not true for my wm, however). I tried using the wmname utility to tell the JDK that I do not have a reparenting wm, but that didn't work. I also tried setting and exporting _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING set to 1, but this also doesn't seem to work.


So my question is this: is there any other way I can get the program to load up correctly in my environment?

Thanks in advance!

  • Hello Patrick.
    Well done figuring out the work-around! In all the years I've been supporting Enterprise Manager I'd never heard of this problem, perhaps because most users aren't so adventurous with their window manager! ;-)
    To avoid impacting other applications I guess you could start Enterprise Manager using a wrapper script that sets AWT_TOOLKIT for you, so that it doesn't need to be a global setting.

    On a related note, please be aware that Enterprise Manager is no longer being developed and has been replaced by the new Incisive vManager(R) tool, which is re-written from the ground up and uses new GUI toolkits. If you've not already seen it, you might want to take a look at some of the tutorial videos on the Cadence support site, or ping your local AE for a demo / evaluation.
