Problem with JWS in intranet
843802Aug 29 2002 — edited Sep 4 2002Hi all,
I'm having a strange problem with JWS: I have set up the web server at my machine (in a company intranet) to return proper mime type for jnlp and installed a Java application to be launched by JWS. However, the application starts only if I use "http://localhost/application/" codebase in the jnlp file. If I try to specify my computer's network name (http://rafalg/application/), JWS can't start the appliation and informs me that bad mime type was returned (text/html).
What is more, it seems that it doesn't make a request to my web server in the second case - no requests are recorded in server log. So I suppose it doesn't get the jnlp file, but some html error message instead.
The computer name is correct and I can access web pages correctly through my web server and a browser(and I can access the jnlp file as well).
Why can't JWS get the file?
I am using Win2k professional OS and IIS or CometWay AK web servers.
I will greatly appreciate any help.
