Typical luser comment! Otherwise known as Works For Me!(R)
fk java… nothing works…
Using Ubuntu 9.10, initially the file was not recognized. Following the advice on getting javaws I installed the JRE package using:
apt-get install openjdk-6-jre
Following installation, javaws ran my jnlp with no problem.
Extremely thankful i waz trying to run it from /usr/bin/javaws but was getting error proxy parsing n awl …..it worked for me from /bin/javaws
