You are almost certainly not doing anything wrong. I'm sorry but I have to idea of what could cause this problem, which looks like a bug in Java Web Start. My recommendation: do not use the -indexjars and -packjars options of deploywebstart (see http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/configure/deploy_webstart_tool.html). That is, keep it as simple as possible. If you find a workaround (an element or attribute in xxe.jnlp, jar versioning, etc), tell us about it and we'll be glad to implement it in the next version of deploywebstart. -- XMLmind XML Editor Support List [email protected] http://www.xmlmind.com/mailman/listinfo/xmleditor-support
