I had the same problem; however, I was doing something that I didn't expect to work, and so I knew what to do to fix it. I tried to use my old _L_info file with 2.0, by renaming it _L_data. As I wasn't surprised to discover, this didn't work. I delete my _L_data (old _L_info) file, and let Launch generate its own _L_data file. Since then, I've had no problems. The docs don't make it clear that your _L_info file is incompatible with Launch 2.0, even if you resolve the name problem. I must admit, I thought that was fairly intuitive, but I tried it because it wasn't explicitly stated. While I suspect that this won't solve your problem, it may save someone else a little bit of time, hence my posting it. -- R David Francis francis@cis.ohio-state.edu
