I've seen this before myself and haven't been able to debug it yet.  I can 
usually recreate the password file and I will be able to login.  

1. Delete the existing login.properties file.
2. Create an empty login.properties file 
3. Run the utility to create a new password:  java -jar addUser.jar
4. type in your username and password

Restart Stokerweb and try the login again.

OK.  It turns out, this was my error.  I am running windows 8.1 and not too 
savy with java.  I've been double clicking the runStokerweb.jar file from the 
folder window.  When I double clicked the addUser.jar file, nothing happened.  
You suggestion to run the script java -jar addUser.jar prompted me to run this 
script in a command prompt.  I realized, I needed to be in the folder that the 
.jar files exists.  This ran and I created the login.properties file.  I am 
logged in now, but I am not getting a plot.  Is the plot supposed to show up 
automatically?  Thanks for your help.

Well, since running the addUser.jar file from the command prompt worked, I 
decided to start over and run the runStokerweb.jar from the command prompt.  
This started the extraction and prompted me to create a user name and password. 
 Everything set up, I went the localhost path.  It connected, and I logged in.  
However, still not plot.  I selected the configure button and the dialog 
opened.  I found by accident that the probe and blowers listed on the left hand 
side were dragging.  I figured I would try dragging them to the proper location 
on the right hand side according to their function.  I hit update, and the plot 
monitors appeared.  The next logical step was to hit the New button.  This 
started the plotting.

Not being much of a computer programmer, I haven't been this excited since I 
got my first BASIC program to run back in the mid 90's.  

I am at the end of my cook time, so my plots are straight lines.  However, I am 
going to get another slab of swine and do this again so I can see how it cooks 
over night.

After updating the configuration, the graphs should start to populate even 
without creating a new log.  There is always a default graph and you can "log" 
a cook which will log only selected probes and save that to a specific file.  
When you choose to end the log, you can create a pdf report of the cook, with 
the graph included.
