Hey guys,

I just installed the latest Bisq and I’m getting the Failed to launch JVM error. Previous version of Bisq was running up until the new install, and most current version of Java is installed. Any thoughts?

Best,

L

Thanks for the response but deleting the bannedseednodes line didn’t help. Bisq still doesn’t start.

Please add the error log (stacktrace). It tends to provide insight into what’s going on.
