WebStart URL_TO_OPEN doesn't seem to work

[dcarlton]

I'm using Java WebStart on Linux to launch OxygenAuthor. I modified the default JNLP file by adding the url of a file that I'd like to open upon launching OxygenAuthor:

Code: Select all

<application-desc main-class="ro.sync.jws.JwsDeployer">

  <argument>file:////foo/bar/aboutOxygen.dita</argument>

  <!-- You can specify the list of files oXygen should open at startup.

            <argument>URL_TO_OPEN_1</argument>

            <argument>URL_TO_OPEN_2</argument>

        -->

</application-desc>

When I invoke the JNLP, OxygenAuthor opens but does not display the file I specified in the JNLP.

Any ideas why?

I'm using
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_24-b07)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 19.1-b02, mixed mode)

Here's the full JNLP:

Hello,

We've re-tested and this works fine in v13.2.
Where is the file located, is it accessible to the running instance of Oxygen?

To make sure you are using the correct URL for the file, start Oxygen and open the file normally. Then right click on the editor tab in Oxygen and from the popup menu choose Copy Location to obtain the URL of the file.

Note that after any modification of the JNLP file you have to rebuild the JWS package. Making changes to the JNLP file directly from the deployment directory will not work because the JNLP is signed.

Regards,
Adrian
