Description

XP Pro x64 SP2, Java 1.6.0_11, Kepler 1.0.0 from kepler-project.org

If I right click a workflow file and select Open With->Kepler, I get an error.

If I add a shortcut to Kepler to my SendTo menu, then right click the workflow file and use the Send To link, I get the same error.

If I call Kepler from the command prompt with the workflow as the only argument, I get the same error.

An image of the error is at the URL.

I think this feature is available under linux:

To clarify, this relates to the Open With and Send To menus in Windows Explorer.

I apparently had a Kepler session already open, and this behavior is due to the cache being locked. I get the expected behavior when Kepler is not already running. Kepler does not gracefully open additional windows or merge into the existing process if a session is already open.

Lowering priority and leaving open.

Basically we need a way to bypass all the Kepler start up stuff and just open a workflow if Kepler is already running and you invoke it with the name of a workflow.

I'll also mention that on OS X, "open with" doesn't even work when Kepler is not already running...
