[stem-dev] Problems Launching STEM - temporary work around

[James Kaufman <jhkauf@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The problems launching STEM seem to be
caused by a MacOS issue (after security update) with the version of the
Equinox Launcher used by STEM. 
The bug is not in STEM itself. The fix
may require a major build update but we are investigating. 

Meanwhile Mac Users should use the following
work around.

1) Open a Terminal Window

2) Type Java -version and make sure
yoru are running Java8

3) cd into the directory that includes
the STEM executable (this is inside of the STEM.app container):

   cd     [b]...installfolder...[/b]/stem/STEM.app/Contents/MacOS

type ./STEM

STEM will launch and run fine. 

As soon as we have a fix we will release
a new build with working launcher but for now please use this command line
procedure from a terminal window to launch STEM on OSx
