Java webstart fails to open. I have also checked permissions to ensure that the javaws file is executable. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Very Steps to Reproduce: 1.download Java jre1.5 from sun 2.install jre1.5 3.attempt to launch javawebstart using /usr/java/jre1.5.0_01/javaws/javaws Actual results: none Expected results: launch java webstart Additional info:
There seems to be a problem with javaws on RHEL4. I suspect all the vendors use the same javaws binary, since both BEA and IBM's javaws binaries also fail on startup. I've reported this to IBM. I'll mark this bug report as a duplicate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 148910 ***
