Can you include more details? What operating system are you running? What browser do you have?

Have you tried opening a browser and going directly to the local web page? After started there's a message printing out the local web page hosting the UI. It's by default http://localhost:65401

Firefox, current Ubuntu latest at that time.

And yes, directly opening it it works, but I've assumed it wanted to use something similar like xdg-open and that has borked.

The actual code is here

Repeat/src/frontEnd/MinimizedFrame.java

Line 78 in d9c209f

Desktop.getDesktop().browse(new URI("http://localhost:" + server.getPort()));

I guess I'll try to find another way to do the browse action.
