javaws and vista : doesn't work ?

Hi,

i have on big issue on vista : i can install my application and run it "online", but if, after, i want to launch it via the shortcuts (on the desktop or in the startup menu) there is an exception.

=> Javaws try to download jre1.6 but it can't.

On the vista machine i have the jre1.6 (last revision) already installed (so javaws doesn't need to download it) and in my jnlp i have tryed, without success :

1)- <j2se version="1.6+"/>

<j2se version="1.5+"/>

2)-

<j2se version="1.6+ "href="http://java.sun.com/products/autodl/j2se"/>

<j2se version="1.5+" href="http://java.sun.com/products/autodl/j2se"/>

3) - <j2se version="1.6"/>

I have tryed other jnlp apps (i didn't developp myself) and have the same problem.

I have only one vista pc to my disposition so i can't figure if it's a problem with this particular pc or with vista himself.

I know about the issues of the auto-installer (i'm thinking about the way to auto-install my application on vista => i think for the moment i will do the same way than with firefox...).

Anybody have the same problems ?

thanks,

Julien

Is 1.6 'enabled' for use with web start?

If you put a small, sandboxed test up on the

server and provide the URL, I would be willing

to try it here (under Win XP).
