When running BPM Process Designer, it will going blank in Windows 8. Here are the solutions :
1. Go to the directory where Process Designer is installed and find the javaw.exe file.
For me this directory is:
C:\IBM\ProcessDesigner\v8.5\AppClient\java\jre\bin
2. COPY the file javaw.exe to javawpd.exe. You will now have 2 copies of this file.
3. Now edit your eclipse.ini file. Mine is in C:\IBM\ProcessDesigner\v8.5
4. Find the line which reads:
./AppClient/java/jre/bin/javaw.exe
and change to
./AppClient/java/jre/bin/javawpd.exe
and restart Process Designer.

thanks. Worked, but wtf????? what caused the error. struggled 2 days with this.
Thanks for the fix. This seems to be when having multiple similar client tools installed, process name clashes in the background causing this problem. I guess they uses javaw.exe for eclipse like tools. If we use unique name, it works.
Thanks a lot. It works for me too. Spent the whole morning trying to figure this out!
Thank you very much. It worked like a magic, after a struggle for two days trying everything else.
