[kepler-dev] Trying own script to start Kepler GUI, Variable Config.xml is null

[Christopher Brooks]

Hi Madhu,
I saw that error earlier today, so I edited Config.java and added
better error messages.  However, then I could not replicate the error.
I think the problem is that config.xml cannot be found in the
classpath.

Try updating kepler/core/src/org/ecoinformatics/util/Config.java
and re-running.
