Exception while starting InstallAnywhere 2009

Hi all,
I'm trying to start InstallAnywhere on Solaris and I get this exception:

Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)

Stack Trace:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at isus.ProfileManager.profileSetValue(Unknown Source)
at isus.AgentEx.profileSetValue(Unknown Source)
at isus.Agent.profileSetValue(Unknown Source)
at com.zerog.ia.designer.update.UpdateFacade.a(DashoA10*..)

at com.zerog.lax.LAX.launch(DashoA10*..)

Could anyone help?

Thanks all in advance.

A couple of question: before the NPE I see at isus.ProfileManager.profileSetValue(Unknown Source) and this leads me to think that there might be a profile related user:
1. Is your IA copy registered or not?
2. Do you attempt to launch it with the same user as the one installed or not?

Yes, it is.

No. The product has been installed by root user and I tried to launch with another user, but I usually launch in this way.

Well, here where your problem might be. IA is registered on a per user basis, which means that it stores it's registration in the /root folder whereas as a regular user you don't have access (thus, I believe, the exception).
