Where I try to run:
java -jar ICQExport.jar or java -cp lib/ -jar ICQExport.jar I get the following error. I also tried setting CLASSPATH to no avail.

ICQExport - exports ICQ database files (prior to version 2003b) to HTML

Hi,
thanks for writing such an app.
This java exporter is the first app that tries to do something on my old ICQ logs (all others did nothing), but although the app says

ICQExport - exports ICQ database files (prior to version 2003b) to HTML
Processing dat file
No UIN found inside properties!
(...) lot of times
No UIN found inside properties!
149769 messages extracted. Writing output files...
Done!

in the end the exported htmls do not contain messages (barely 180 bytes size) , and I don't recognize the UINs either (my friends had shorter ones that the one extracted)

I suspect that the few exported htmls are some UIN that existed but had no messages (spam?), whereas the messages without UIN, had content but were not exported due to missing UIN ? is that possible ?
The .dat I have is from 2005 and is 65 MB but I suppose it is compatible as the software is doing something.

With a hex reader, I could see some ansicpg1215 which I suppose is for cp1215 encoding and there is definitely pure text there, just in lots of chunks, which I had hoped would be reconstructed with your software. So data is there.

I know cpp and python but unfortunately not java. I might find tutorials on how to build (seems like I need some build tool to also build dependencies like some com.google.common.base), but any hints on what could cause the issue might help.

thanks
