BRIG genome visualization missing rings - Solved!

Problem: 

Missing rings for the query sequences and BRIG doesn't give any error message.

Solution that worked for me:

This is an issue with java version. I was running Java 1.8 version and had same problem as the OP's question. Then I followed the answers and finally changing the java version worked for me.

I ran the following steps

1) Go to link: https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase-java-archive-javase6-downloads.html 

2) mkdir Java1.6

3) Download "jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin" and save in Java1.6

3) cd Java1.6 && chmod +x jdk-6u45-linux-x64.bin

4) You should see java file in Java1.6/jdk1.6.0_45/bin

5) Java1.6/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java -version - should give "1.6.0_45"

6) Open BRIG using Java1.6 as follows:

Java1.6/jdk1.6.0_45/bin/java -jar BRIG.jar

Note: I did not uninstall my original Java1.8 rather used the downloded java1.6 execulatable file using path. That way I retain both versions without any problem.

This gave me all the rings without any issue!! Hope this helps someone!
