Download Error

All,

I am getting an error when launching an application using WebStart:

Category: Download Error

Bad MIME type returned from server when accessing resource: http://ws019/jnlp/prodman.jnlp - text/html

I created a simple application to check the MIME type returned by Apache 1.3.20 installed on my PC. The correct result accessing the same resource was obtained:

http://ws019/jnlp/prodman.jnlp:

application/x-java-jnlp-file.

Could anybody, please, say what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks to everybody

Hi,

this seems to be another case of the notorious proxy config issue. Web Start's error message is misleading because it should actually be "File Not Found" as the proxy server sends back an error page in HTML instead of your lovely JNLP file.

Check Sun's terse FAQ entry for more details.
