Problem with rview

1

Has anyone else experienced the problem described below? I have no clue
what could cause it.
Thanks,
Andy

Hi,
I am trying to run the application rview but the following error message
pops up:
"Invalid or absent registry key - Software/Lawrence Berkeley National
Laboratory/Radiance". Can you help me solve this?
Regards,
Alejandro

Candidate for the FAQ:

Radiance rview was renamed to rvu when the VIM editor decided that "rview" was the name they wanted for a restricted, read-only invocation of "vi".

Either put the Radiance executable directory before the one with VIM in it, or get used to calling "rvu" instead.

On second thought, the actual error is very strange. Radiance has never had a software registry key that I know of. If running "rvu" generates a similar error, please let us know where this installation originated.

It may be related to a desktop radiance installation.

Seems like someone is trying to use a binary from the Desktop Radiance
distro, or maybe a newer COMFEN one?
