    Description

      I am trying to create an installation wizard using JavaFX (because with Java it can install/upgrade straight from our Maven repository)

      When I run this app on my desktop, it is stable, but when I run the same in a remote desktop or team viewer session, and click with the mouse on a combo box, then after click on some button or click on the combo box again the whole JVM blows up.
      There is a workaround: tab to the combo box and select the wanted item using the arrow keys. Then tab out again. Once it's out you can pick up the mouse again. But try explaining that to a customer...

      I've tried several JDK bundles including the latest JDK1.8, but no change. I created a trimmed down Eclipse/maven project and posted the files online. (as well as the dump)

      UPDATE: it's not remote desktop related, but depends on the OS. I've tried several systems by dropping fake-installer-1.0.zip (see link below) on the desktop and unpack it. XP / Win7 / Win8 / Server2008 / Server2012.
      The JRE is bundled so those are the same all the time. After I rebuild the project with a 32 bit JRE path in JAVA_HOME it actually gets much better. The first 4 OS types are working now. Only on server 2012 it still blows up. Tried two different servers.
      But this brings down the priority down a lot. Most customers are still using server 2008. But still reporting it.
