Java crashes upon executing Matlab

I am having a Java RE crash upon running a MatLab on some laptops I am running on.

I have MatLab Compiler Runtime 8.4 installed, and the same executable works on some laptops running Windows Win 7 64-bit, and fails to run on some. It works OK on the 32-bit Win 7 machines I have access to. On the failed machines, I have tried Java RE versions 7, update 45, 71, and Java RE 8.

The following is the log. Please help.

MATLAB is exiting because of fatal error

Me too

I have the same problem!!

Assertion in void __cdecl `anonymous-namespace'::mwJavaAbort(void) at b:\matlab\src\jmi\jmi\javainit.cpp line 1418: Fatal Java Exception. See Java Crash Report for details.

From the java log: # Failed to write core dump. Minidumps are not enabled by default on client versions of Windows

A also run WIN7 64.

What can I do?

I am having an identical problem. I have a compiled GUI made in guide working properly on two windows XP 32 bit test machines, but the program throws this error when trying to run it on the machine I really need it for. Is this an OpenGL issue? I've updated .NET to 4.0, Java to 7, and this error still appears.

I made a test program that consists of the following code:

function EZtest()
fprintf('This message appears only in the console.\n');
msgbox('The script is working properly.')

I compiled this and executed it from the command prompt. I do see the message 'This message appears only in the console.'. The runtime is loading properly. But then Java crashes before the msgbox appears! What is wrong, and how do I fix it?

This problem was solved on my windows XP SP3 32 bit machine by installing the latest OpenGL drivers for my chipset. Programs executed normally, as long as no graphics objects were used. After driver update, all graphics objects execute normally with no Java crash reported.
