I have linux running (dist SuSe 8.2 professional) with standard java installed. When going to the Servoy Server URL the check is ok. I then download the client .jar but...

I can not start it up since I need an application to run it. Under windows and Mac OS I don't have any problem but then again, I am pretty new to Linux.

Can somebody guide me?

Thanks,

Marcel

If you have mozilla as a webbrowser and install java 1.4.2 after you installed the webbrowser the installer will take care of this for you. Otherwise you can launch it with javaws. By default javaws is installed into:
/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.2/jre/javaws/javaws

if it's not there try locating it using locate javaws

Thanks Jan, it works now. Don't understand it though since the Servoy check showed that it was/is all ok...

I think the check only verifies that Java is installed properly, not if the current webbrowser trying to launch a jnlp has been set to map the correct mime types to the webstart launcher.
