[Bug 252472] Re: Java Web start does not work on Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit (Firefox and Konqueror)

 

I am using openJDK. Sun does not support 64 bit, there are no even executables for javaws. So, clearly I am using openJDK. I mentioned sun JDK, only because it is also installed on the system. Just in case if there can be any conflicts for example while installing openJDK it does not install properly and uses parts from Sun JDK (however, this is very unlikely). I installed first Sun JDK, but because it was not supporting javaws I installed openJDK. Otherwise Sun JDK has nothing to do with it.
Now all pats seems to point to openJDK. Any suggestions how to make openJDK work properly?

Bug description:
I was not able to use simple examples from java.sun.com. Latter on I tried few other examples, all failed. This is the same with Firefox 3.0.1 and Konqueror.
Starting from command line javaws brings certificate windows. I have no clue what to do with this.
I was able to open one sample application when starting
javaws -nosecurity -about
Two of the samples opened jDiskReport and jPathReport. Other trow an exception.
