It seems that this type of problem was solved in previous versions of DBeaver, but none of the proposed resolutions I tested worked.

Thanks,

Can't reproduce. However it is clearly a bug in splashscreen handler.
You could try to remove line -showsplash from dbeaver.ini.

ylepors · 2018-11-05T14:10:01Z

Hi Serge.

Done in /Applications/DBeaver.app/Contents/Eclipse/dbeaver.ini, which is now:
-startup
../Eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.5.100.v20180827-1352.jar
--launcher.library
../Eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.800.v20180827-1352
-vmargs
-XX:+IgnoreUnrecognizedVMOptions
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
-Xms64m
-Xmx1024m
-XstartOnFirstThread

The splashscreen is still displayed and the same error occurs.

serge-rider · 2018-11-05T14:56:30Z

Ok, thanks for checking this.
Could you try to remove file ~/.dbeaver4/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.e4.workbench/workbench.xmi then? It keeps UI configurations. Maybe it become corrupted after version upgrade.

ylepors · 2018-11-05T15:13:03Z

Done. Still same behaviour:

splashscreen
blank window Eclipse SDK
log file indicates same error

serge-rider · 2018-11-05T17:01:45Z

Ok, then something else is guilty.

I see that your Java version differs from the Java bndled in pkg.
How do you install DBeaver? DMG, zip, or thru some 3rd party package manager?

Could you try to install using PKG (download it from dbeaver.io or GitHub)?

ylepors · 2018-11-05T17:24:50Z

I have installed dbeaver-ce-5.2.3-macos.dmg from dbeaver.io.
Clean uninstall (w/ latest CleanMyMac X) and manually delete ~/.deaver4 directory.
Then I installed dbeaver-ce-5.2.4-installer.pkg from dbeaver.io.

And now, no more blank window but only window action buttons:

serge-rider · 2018-11-05T18:07:06Z

This is weird (I can't reproduce this on two Macs with Mojave).
Anyhow - please test this on the Early Access version (https://dbeaver.io/files/ea/) - it contains the fix of splash screen handler.

ylepors · 2018-11-06T09:41:00Z

Hello Serge.

Done with both releases (DMG and PKG).
Same behavior: crash at launch after the splashscreen, now no empty or blank window.

You will find attached the debug log files for both releases.

Oops, sorry.

serge-rider · 2018-11-06T13:40:16Z

Apparently I've made a mistake during Early Access publishing (it is still old). Could you test the latest one (https://dbeaver.io/files/ea/)

ylepors · 2018-11-06T13:55:18Z

Same :/

serge-rider · 2018-11-06T14:45:07Z

This is a bug in Eclipse: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=540357
I hope they'll find a solution in near days.

This error happens because DBeaver tries to switch to Dark theme (I assume that you using Mojave with dark theme).

Please try this workaround: add line -nosplash in dbeaver.ini (before -vmargs line).

ylepors · 2018-11-06T16:58:03Z

I have modified the dbeaver.ini as you suggested (-nospash parameter)
Much better, I have now a clean Eclipse window but I cannot create a new connection and database driver manager is empty (as .dbeaver-driver folder).

Still have NullPointerException

lalato · 2018-11-13T22:20:18Z

I am experiencing the same issue. Upgraded to Mojave and suddenly DBeaver no longer works. Upon start, I see the following as normal...

However, after this loads, I see the menu bar options, but the actual editor windows do not open...

Tried adding -nosplash to DBeaver.ini, but that didn't do anything.

serge-rider · 2018-11-13T22:36:47Z

@lalato could you also post debug and error logs?

Edited original post with debug log

Just tried the trick of holding down the Ctrl key during launch. This seems to be working for me.

serge-rider · 2018-11-14T18:25:25Z

@lalato thanks for details.

Wow. That's unusual. Thanks a lot for the information :)

vialrogo · 2018-11-22T12:22:17Z

Hold down control worked for me. That was weird. Besides, the -nosplash option worked for 5.2.4 but not for 5.2.5. I am using Windows with the new dark theme. I think that is the same issue.

greyshine · 2018-11-23T10:36:08Z

Solved the issue for me:
My problem was that I also installed Java11 in the mean time.
I do not know if I ever really shut down dbeaver since installation.
I did the macos latest updates inbetween and it now failed as well. Only showing the splash screen and then quitting with a reference to some log file.
Since I installed Java11 in between and that probably installed itself as the main java version on the OS I told dbeaver to use the java8 vm:

/Applications/DBeaver.app/Contents/Eclipse/dbeaver.ini

-vm
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_144.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java
-startup
../Eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.4.0.v20161219-1356.jar
--launcher.library
../Eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.cocoa.macosx.x86_64_1.1.550.v20170928-1359
-showsplash
-vmargs
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
-Duser.language=en
-Xms64m
-Xmx1024m
-XstartOnFirstThread

I only did add the first two lines with -vm and /Library/Java/... to the existing file.
!!! Do place it in two lines otherwise eclipse won't properly start with that setting as I understood.

Thank you for the info @greyshine

@greshyine s method works. I can confirm it.
