IZ90552: NOT ABLE TO DOWNLOAD JRE THROUGH JNLP FILE REFERENCE

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Error Message: N/A
  .
  Stack Trace: N/A
  .
  The Java Web Start application JNLP file references the
  WebSphere JRE 6.0 which we provide via a URL from the same
  server at which the JNLP file is downloaded.
  If the user using the application is an Administrator on Windows
  then there is no problem.  However, if the user is not an
  Administrator then the application fails because the user is not
  permitted to download and run the alternative JRE.
  If run "javaws -viewer" we cannot (under the Advanced tab) check
  the box to allow the user to download an       alternative JRE
  since this is a disabled control.
