JNLPException UnknownHostException

843802Mar 15 2005 — edited Apr 5 2005
Hi,

When starting an already installed java webstart appliaction i get the following error:

JNLPException[category: Download Error : Exception: java.net.UnknownHostException: alpha1.eurotransplant.nl : LaunchDesc: null]

It's correct that the host cannout be found, as the laptop the application is running on doesn't have a network connection. But since the app is already installed and i've specified offline-allowed in the jnlp file, the application should start, even without a network connection.

(We're creating an application which will run on laptops equipped with umts/gprs cards. The application will mainly be used in Operation Rooms, where no umts connection can be made. Once all the data has been entered, the person using the laptop will walk to an area where an umts connection can be made and he'll transmit all the collected data. Conclusion: the application will usually be used without any network connect)

How do i solve this?

Thanks,
Andrej
