TASServer 0.34 crash on start

I am having issues with TASServer. Every time I start it a command prompt window flashes on the screen for a second and closes. I am using the file provided on the Download page on an Athalon 64 3000+ with 512Mb RAM and WinXP SP2.

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated.

run from a command prompt and post what it spits out here.

Thanks for the tip about running it in the command prompt, AF. I never would have thought of that.

So what does all this mean?

do you have an up to date (sun) java runtime enviroment?
if you're unsure issue "java -version" in a terminal. anything below 1.6.x screams for downloading a new one from sun

Thanks for the advice, koshi. The Java update got TASServer working fine.
