Hi Team, I wanted to check how to install or configure Open Webstart in Oracle EBS R12.1.3, so could you please help us with the steps to configure?

We do not have any experience with Oracle EBS.

However, if Oracle EBS applications can be deployed on desktops using Jnlp files, then OWS can be used to run that Jnlp file and thus start the application.

Most likely (check your jnlp file) your Oracle Forms App is an Applet (applet tag) and OWS does not support applets. You need to convert your applet to a Java application which you need to specify in the Jnlp as application tag. We can help you to convert your Applet to an Application.
