It could be that the GraphViz process outputs some warnings (maybe a  
missing font) that make Java think that the runtime call to dot never  
terminates. I this case there isn't any actual error, it is just that  
the call to Runtime.exec() never returns. If you want to find out if  
this is the src of the problem, you can try to get the temporary .dot  
file generated by IsaViz and run it manually through dot in a DOS  
prompt, just to see if it outputs anything.

Use the following command line

dot -Tsvg -o <out.svg> <in.dot>

Strange. Your .cfg file seems fine. If the error persists, you might  
want to delete it and save your prefs again from IsaViz. Anyway this  
is probably not related to the above issue.
