Java WEBSTART on Mac OS X??

Has anyone played with Java Web Start on OS X - is it possible to get the source and recompile for OS X?
Any help would be appreciated.
Cor!

I am part of a team that have written an app for Mac OS10.1 to be launched via JWS. It is a Stockmarket Analysis App, and after a ~2MB download you can sign up for a free trial if you like. If is available at http://www.mytradingtool.com/stockman.jnlp - or if you would just like to read a little about it first, go to http://www.mytradingtools.com

Java WebStart and Mac OS X 10.8

I'm a bit afraid that Java WebStart applications are encountering a problem with the latest OS X release because of the Gatekeeper settings preventing Java WebStart applications from running. Is it really true that if an application is not signed with an apple developer id that it will no longer be allowed to start unless changes are made to the Gatekeeper settings?
https://blogs.oracle.com/talkingjavadeployment/entry/java_applications_and_gatekeeper
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/mac-faq.html#gatekeeper
If this is the case then of course my question would be how can I additionally sign my webstart application built with maven on windows with a free apple developer id?

doing a test app where you replace the .png with a .jpg might be a good idea. If you do not have a "test app", you probably should for JWS. It does not have to do much.

Java webstart on Mac OS9.2

Hi I have a java webstart application that uploads files to my website, I now have 2 people that want to upload to my site that are running mac OS9.2.
They both seem to be having the same problem as that the java application just does not start. They both have Mac OS runtime for Java 2.2.5 installed
Can someone give me some clues as to what may be going wrong and where to look on a mac as I have never owned one and have no idea.
Thanks

From that site:
Mac OS Runtime for Java (MRJ) is Apple's implementation of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), based on Sun Microsystems' Java 1.1.8 specificationAlso from that site, there is a version 2.2.6 (fixes some Oracle bug)
If you need anything other than 1.1.8, your only option is to ditch 9.2 (which is 5+ years old at this stage!) and get OS X

PI 7.1 ESR and Java Webstart very slow

Hi,
I have been using the PI ESR and IB on the snow leapord OS with Mozilla and Safari browsers. The java webstart seems to be very slow and working on the ESR objects is sometimes a pain as it takes long time to save , activate or change and sometimes I end up java heap space issues although we are running at a 2 gig heap size. Is it only me or is anyone else facing the same issue?
Is it time to go back to good old windows XP? or can this be fixed in Mac ...I love my Mac for other reasons though...:)

Hi,

add this server info with related IP address into your hosts file
and it will work

Java Webstart not working on Lion

Hi,
I bought Lion yesterday, and then did a clean install (by copying the InstallESD file on a DVD and partitioning the whole drive again) on my iMac.
Everything seemed to be working fine, except Java. I Installed Java, from the Mac update menu (by going to Java prefs first), and some webapps based on Java that i use are working fine, but the most important doesn't.
It's ProRealTime, a financial charting application based on java. I download the webstart (.jnlp) file and open it, i see the app icon coming on the dock, and just when it tries to open, the app crashes and gives me an error.
I've contacted ProRealTime, and been talking to them since yesterday, and they say it's an issue with the Java version for Lion, and its apple who has to fix it.
Anyone has any idea, on how i could get it to work , or what should i do ?
I went back to my last Time machine backup of Snow Leoaprd, and won't upgrade to Lion again until Java works well again.
I don't understand why this time apple didn't include java directly with the OS, like in previous versions. For my work, a well working java is probably the most important feature that i need on my work imac. It's not so important for my other macs, that's why i'll still upgrade there, but it's crucial for work.
I'll really appreciate any comment or ideas.
Thanks in advance !

Hi again,
After days of researching, installing and uninstalling everything, everywhere i've found what causes this problem.
I installed Lion on my mac mini at home, and prorealtime (java) was working perfectly fine. So then i installed Lion again on my office imac, and tried again. At first Java was working fine, and i could use ProRealtime. But then, after installing all the other apps and drivers i tried again and it crashed like before. The only main difference between my imac and mac mini is a driver i have in my imac, called Displaylink. It's for using an extra screen through a USB to DVI adapter (i have 2 extra monitors on my imac, one connected directly and the other connected through this USB adapter).
So then, i uninstalled this Displaylink driver, and tried Prorealtime again, and it was working perfectly. So clearly the issue is created by a conflict between the displaylink drivers (and my 3rd screen) and java for lion.
And for now it's an issue only with java, since the drivers work fine when i installed them and i could see and use the 3rd screen like in Snow Leopard. But when i use this java app they create me this issue.
I've sent feedback to Displaylink but as always, i'm open to any suggestion , anyone could have about this.
As i said before i really need ProRealtime to work properly (which means with all 2 extra screens).
Thanks !!

Running a Java Applet on Mac OS browser

I'm having trouble getting my Java Applet to work properly on the Mac OS version of IE5. Basicaly, the app fails to appear. Are there any do's and don'ts regarding the running of Java Applets on Mac Browsers?
I read somewhere that you can't send parameters through to the Applet. Is that true? I'm not trying to do this and it's still doesn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.

If anyone can help me with this problem I would be greatful.

Java Webstart in Windows 7

I have a Java Webstart application running on a Windows 7 Laptop. An Apache Tomcat webserver is also installed on this laptop so everything is self contained. When the laptop is not connected to a network and I start the application, Webstart gives me two instances of the application. When the laptop is connected to a network, I get one instance.
I also have an identical installation on a Windows Vista PC. Irrespective of whether or not this PC is connected to a network, I always get one instance of the application when I start it.
I would like to hear from anyone who has noticed similar behaviour and whether they have an explanation and whether they can advise if this is a 'bug' or a 'feature'.

Thanks a lot for your reply.
but no luck. still nothing happens.... javaws just dies without logging anything?

Jar files download problems in Java Webstart with JRE 1.6

We have encountered a few problems in Java Webstart with JRE 1.6
In JRE 1.5, the jar files are getting downloaded onto the client
machine with it's original names.
Example :
Server File Name : acm.jar
Client File Name : RMacm.jar
But in JRE 1.6, the jar files are getting downloaded with improper file names.
Example :
Server File Name : acm.jar
Client File Name : 4fb074cc-66fc7407
Moreover the path itself seems to be invalid.
Example Path :
JRE 1.5 path:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\javaws\https\D17.16.23.11\P443\DMtest\DMwebStart
JRE 1.6 path:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\6.0\12
Due to this, we are facing Classpath problems.
What changes do we have to make to the code, for Java
Webstart to work ?
We are using JBoss 4.0.4 and JDK 1.5 in the Server
On the client machine, we have IE 6 and JRE 1.6.01
Help would be appreciated.

Java webstart proxy bypass not working

java webstart does not work through proxy as the jar files is not getting downloaded. most simple solution would of course be to bypass the proxy for the target server (by entering the server in the system network preference panel). however, that does not work. apparently this bypass is not taken into account by java webstart.
if i remember correctly there once was a possibility to set such things (proxy etc.) in java webstart preferences. this is not existing any more.
how can i solve the problem?

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your reply, Prateek.
I have already checked SAP Note 1142580 - "Java Proxy is not processing messages in parallel" where they ask to modify the ejb-jar.xml. However, on performing the change in ejb-jar.xml and while building the EAR, I get the following error:
Error! The state of the source cache is INCONSISTENT for at least one of the request DCs. The build might produce incorrect results.
Then, on going through the SAP Note 1142580 again, I realised that the SAP Note 1230721 also should be looked onto which will be needed for generating the Java proxy from Message Interfaces in IR for parallel processing.
Kindly help me if any of you have worked on such a scenario.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Rosie Sasidharan.

The steps to enable Java Webstart in OSX Mavericks are not working.

The steps located here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5559 are not re-enabling the Java Webstart for Java 6 in OSX Mavericks. I have tried all four steps about 20 times and looked at all the settings in all my browsers (chrome, safari, and firefox) and all say "missing plugin" when I go to any website that requires Java -- in this case, the NY Times Crossword Puzzle's "solve with a friend", which is incompatible with Java 7 so upgrading does not help me. I've tried searching for other answers and all keep directing me to the same four steps that have not worked.
A note, those steps worked when I had the same problem after upgrading to Mountain Lion. Should something be altered for Mavericks?
Please advise.

You'll possibly need to remove Oracle Java altogether before, see these notes on their WebSite:
http://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_uninstall_java.xml
After you remove it, go through the steps to re-enable Apple Java again; and, inside Safari, you can also go to its menu and choose "Reset Safari".
Hope this helps.

If you can run it under chrome, you have java installed.
There was some malware that exploited an older version of Java (not javascript) running in a Browser. Since few people use it Apple turned off Java by default in the Safari Browser.
If you need it for something, just turn it back on in Safari preferences (inside Safari). After a few months of non-use, you may find it has turned itself off again.

I heard there was a security breach in Java installed in Macs and that there is a patch to fix it. But that's all I know. Is there more info available?
