Hello,

This may not be relevant - but I ran into a very similar issue tonight... Setup appeared to "hang" - until I found out that Eclipse was "helpful" and pointing out to me that something had changed in the environment... And it was patiently waiting for my input.

The only problem was that the window was hidden under a stack of other windows.

When you run setup, are you sure there's not some window popped up somewhere - but not to the foreground?

Thanks,

Maarten Jacobs
