OpenWebStart - How to package/automate the Find Local button

[Boschy]

Hi there,

We are trying to package/automate the Find Local button.

Given it's an EXE and not an MSI or such, we are struggling to package the install for our users in such a way that it auto-presses the Find Local button during the installation.

The JRE will be installed prior to this, so will be present on the machine - but currently it's a manual step for our users to press that button. We are hoping for a better way to do so.

We could not find a regkey or installation switch/statement that makes it work.

Anyone know how?

Thank you!

Hi,

OWS installer installs two exes: javaws.exe and itw-setting.exe.

It is the itw-settings.exe that allows you to manage the JVMs used by OWS when launching the Jnlp application.

What is your exact requirement with respect to the JVM used by OWS to run the Jnlp application?

Please see https://openwebstart.com/docs/OWSGuide. ... management.

OWS can automatically download the JRE that best matches the one required to run the application as specified in the Jnlp file.
