Chapter 1. Troubleshooting Java Web Start

The OpenJDK 8 for Windows distribution includes an implementation of the Java Web Start deployment protocol based on the IcedTea-Web open source project.

Note

This implementation of the Java Web Start protocol may not be fully compatible with the proprietary Java Web Start implementation included in the Oracle Java 8 distribution.

To report an issue with your Web Start application, please include the appropriate details from the %LOCALAPPDATA%\RedHat\java-1.8.0-openjdk-[version]\webstart\javaws_last_log.txt log file.

Note

The log file captures the standard output of your Java Web Start application and may contain confidential information.
