Author Jini on the Mac

Hi,

I have problems installing the Jini Starter Kit on a Mac (OS X 10.4.7).
I downloaded the jini2_1.jar and installed it as described on the web
site. However, the last but one installation step ("Environment
Verification") fails: no service browser is coming up.

These are the last lines from the installation log:
[snip]
<action name="Custom Action"
target="com.sun.jini.install.RemovePolicyProviderAction"
status="successful"/>
<action name="Execute Command" status="successful"/>
<action name="Execute Command" status="successful"/>
<action name="Custom Action"
target="com.sun.jini.install.GetInterfaceInfoAction" status="successful"/>
<action name="Modify Text File - Single File"
target="startAll.config" status="successful">

<destination>/Users/bs/Library/Javalib/jini-2.1/installverify/support/startAll.config</destination>
</action>
<action name="Custom Action"
target="com.sun.jini.install.SetHostEntryAction" status="successful"/>
<action name="Execute Target File" status="error">
<destination>.</destination>
<AdditionalNotes>
<error>java.lang.NullPointerException</error>
</AdditionalNotes>
</action>
</InstallLogDetails>
</InstallationLog>
[snip]

On my Windows XP box everything works fine.

Do you have any hints what's going on?

Best, Bernhard
