Lukas: Similar problem. Actually assumed it was related to the DB format as I created a new database using 7.7.2 and it then worked fine. I then closed and restarted BaseX and got the same freeze issue. But guess what, I actually can see this happening with the 7.6 jar as well. So probably a system setup related issue. One thing I did change on my system a few weeks ago was to replace the OSX 1.6 version of Java with Oracle version 1.7. Should in theory not make a difference but you never know. So basically if I open and create a new DB, it works fine. If I start and open an extsing DB, I gte the freeze. Let me know what I can do to help pinpointing the issue. best *P

Hi Pascal,
Recently upgraded to 7.7.2 from 7.6 and getting UI freeze on MacOSX when I try to open existing databases.I also experienced this issue once or twice but wasn't exactly able to reproduce it on purpose. Your report simply tells me that there's indeed an issue with 7.7.2/ 7.7.3 and we should take a closer look at it - thanks for the report. Do you also experience the same freezes with the latest stable snapshot (7.8)?
When opening from the interactie command prompt, I get a message that the format has changed and I need to rebuild indexes.I would serialize the database content to disk with 7.6 and create new databases from the exported files. Between version 7.7.2/7.7.3/7.8 the database format changes again - another reason to consider giving version 7.8 a go.
Sorry for not being of too much help here ...
Cheers, Lukas
