Hi all, recently my serviio won't startup, there is always an error.

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.serviio.console.ServiioConsole
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)
at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(Unknown Source)
at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(Unknown Source)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)

at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(Unknown Source)
at com.exe4j.runtime.LauncherEngine.launch(Unknown Source)
at com.exe4j.runtime.WinLauncher.main(Unknown Source)

I have looked at other post which have recommended installing the latest version of Java, which done and redone just to make sure, however this had no effect.
If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated

Make sure you remove any old versions of Java before installing the latest - see http://java.com/en/download/faq/remove_ ... rsions.xml. Sometimes old versions are not apparent - this will find them and allow you to remove them.
Also, if you are on 64 bit windows you must install the 64 bit version of Java (usually as well as the 32 bit version that is required by any 32 bit internet browsers that you use).
