[jira] [Created] (DIRSTUDIO-1169) Usability: "An error has occurred" on startup

Graham Leggett created DIRSTUDIO-1169:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Usability: "An error has occurred" on startup
                 Key: DIRSTUDIO-1169
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1169
             Project: Directory Studio
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: studio-rcp
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M13
            Reporter: Graham Leggett
         Attachments: ads-an-error-has-occurred.png

After upgrading Java to v9.0.4 and Apache Directory Studio to v2.2.0-M13, an attempt to run the application for the first time stops with a popup saying:

"An error has occurred

See the log file

XXX"

At the same time the error message is selectable, but cannot be cut-and-pasted, leaving you to transcribe the log file path by hand.

Ideally the error should appear in the popup itself directly, and the error message must be copy-able so as to put it into google.

Note: this ticket covers the usability of the error message, not the error itself.
