Trying to take a look at BlogBridge, which is a java application available for download here http://www.blogbridge.com/download-linux.php Thing is, it wants to run a jlnp file to install, and the associations are apparently either non-existant or broken on my 9.3 box. Type: application/x-java-jnlp-file Simply causes both Firefox and Konqueror to pop up a file save as/open with dialog. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this file association set up right so it will run?

In FF, when 'File Open' dialog shows up, select 'Open with' and select the Java Webstart application. In my case (JDK 1.5.0_03 installed under SuSE 8.2), this is /usr/java/jdk1.5.0_03/jre/javaws/javaws. This should download the jnlp file and open it in the Java Webstart application.

Well, that kinda works. I have javaws here /usr/lib/jvm/java/jre/javaws/javaws and the link now opens, but all that happens is that I end up with javawsbin running and eating up 90+% cpu with no disk activity and no network activity.

I am just now doing the BlogBridge install on my system, it's easy enough to get rid of it later... 1. Load the jnlp file into Java Webstart. 2. It checks for the current version of BlogStart. 3. It downloads about 4 MB of BlogBridge code. 4. It starts the application. Ok, on my system the instalation works fine. Checking the running processes with 'ps ax | grep javaws' I see several threads like this one: 28075 ?

Scott, which Java version are your running? Are you sure it's a VM from Sun >= 1.4? I would recommend you go to http://java.sun.com and get the Linux installer of JRE 1.5.0_03 or - if you do Java development work - JDK 1.5.0_03. It installs everything under /usr/java and can be easily removed should you later wish to do so. Besides, 1.5.0_03 performs better than any Sun VM ever. -- Andreas Philipp Noema Ltda.

I'm running java-1.4.2-sun-1.4.2.08, which was installed off the SuSE installation DVD. From what I can tell, my javaws is completely broken. It flat out doesn't work, if it simply type javaws at the prompt, the same thing happens, javawsbin runs at 90%+ cpu forever with no output of any kind. I'll try reinstalling once my son returns my SuSE 9.3 DVD (he 'borrowed' it to install on his box). I also have 1.50 on this box, but nothing in /etc/alternatives is pointing to it, so I don't _think_ that's the problem, but who knows? It too was installed straight off the DVD. I finally gave up on downloading from Blogbridge and went straight to their Sourceforge site and grabbed the zip packages. Those install fine and Blogbridge fires up perfectly using the shell script in the zip file, so my immediate issue is solved but I'd still like to know why javaws doesn't work on this box.

I have never used SuSE supplied Java, so I have no experience on this side. But yes, your javaws seems to be broken. If you look at the javaws script, you will see that it basically exports some environment variables and starts javawsbin. On my machine I have both Sun supplied JDK 1.4.2_06 and 1.5.0_03; in both VM installations Java Webstart works fine from the command line. -- Andreas Philipp Noema Ltda.
