Rapid Miner does not start correctly

marcel

After starting Rapid Miner today, the startup process hangs showing the message "INFO: Checking for updates." in the terminal. I started the GUI using a terminal in Linux.

It is impossible to load processes and it is also impossible to create new processes, because the operators gray out. After 30 minutes the "Checking for updates" message disappears and Rapid Miner runs correctly.

This happens every time I start Rapid Miner. So far, everything ran smoothly.

There are some warnings in the terminal:

WARNING: Version file /home/marcel/.RapidMiner5/ida/version.txt does not exist.

Marcel,

Same problem for me though Windows 7. It was working fine yesterday. Currently waiting to see if it works correctly after a while.
