Can OWS be run from a portable USB stick? Officially, OpenWebStart will probably never publish a portable version. The main reason for this is that comfortable operation is only possible with the help of file associations. The Windows registry entries required for this are created during installati...

Clear cache and run : download progress dialog was shown and files were downloaded 2. Run again : No download progress dialogs w...

Is the Oracle Jar frmall.jar signed? Can you please send the screenshot of the dialog that is shown when you start the app and also the log files.

Hi Which version of OpenWebStart are you using? With which JVM are you running your application? You have created a deployment.config file in C:\Windows\Sun\Java\Deployment directory . This file contains a property : deployment.system.config that points to the deployment.properties file. OWS will th...

Not in jnlp, these should be in the manifest of the signed jar file.

Not only the jars should be signed by the same signature, their manifests should have the following attributes:

Permissions: all-permissions
Codebase: *
Application-Library-Allowable-Codebase: *

Hi, Just to confirm : You are able to start your application jnlp with OWS but after starting your application crashes when it tries to load Oracle Forms 10G. Is this correct? Please check the following: - the logs in <User Home>/.config/icedtea-web/log directory to see if they indicate anything? - ...

Thanks for posting on the forum. While updating you chose "current user" and OWS 1.2.1 got installed in a different directory as compared to your OWS 1.1.8 installation directory. Hence there are two installation of OWS on your machine resulting in two StartMenu shortcuts. This is not a bu...

We will fix this in v1.3.0.

Hi, There is a whitelist of secure properties which has been taken from the following documentation: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/javaws/developersguide/syntax.html#secure-property https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/tools/java.htm#JSWOR624 https://news.kynosarges.org/2019/03/...

OWS presently does not support persistent cookies. OWS works on Linux, Windows and Mac. So the solution when provided should work on all three platforms. This issue has no priority for our current sponsors and we do not have the resources to implement this. Would you be interested in sponsoring this...

I tested it and it works => in IE 11 type the URL of .jnlpx file, IE downloads it and asks for Open or Save, Clicking on Open starts the .jnlpx file with OWS.

In Windows Setting > Apps > Default Apps > Choose apps by file type >:.jnlpx is associated with OWS.:

This won't work. These VM options are relevant only for OWS phase one : download of jnlp file and not for jar files. Even then OWS seems to override and set the ConnectTimeout to 5000
