Shelf Crash

Please help asap…

Last night everything was working fine…

This morning, my shelf will not start:

Memory Fault (Core Dumped)

It will start, however, as root. Which is unacceptable for launching
appropriate applications.

Please advise how to fix the shelf, and how to start the IDE from the
command line.

Thanks in advance,

Hm… wonder if there is a shelf config file in the home directory
of the user that has gotten corrupted?

That used to cause a problem for shelf’s antecedent under QNX4,
don’t know if shelf might still have a similar issue.

Try a “chkfsys /” to see if any files have become corrupted.
