That is strange. If I cancel the save blendinspect.app then it runs.
Maybe when I try to save there is a permissions issue and it messes up the process? But if I cancel then it works. |

Still not working.
I just get the application menu. Also, it asks to save the application blendinspect.app to a folder. It appears the app is never saved to the folder.
Also, I did not have Open Safe files check in Safari. So, I had to double click on the blendinspect.jnlp file on the desktop to get it going. If I did check the Open Safe files in Safari it worked automatically. But it just produced the same situation as described previously. |

thank you everybody for your feedback!
it seems as if there are currently two problems running this webstart app.
1. on linux and windows you need at least a java-version larger than 5.
2. doesnt work at all on macs. at the moment i have no idea why, but i'll look into this.! |

This does not work on the mac. 10.4.10.
java -version
java version "1.5.0_07"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_07-164)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_07-87, mixed mode, sharing)
Looks like you signed the certs yourself. So, there are a few warning windows. No problem.
I get to the point where it asks me to create an application. But there is no application created.
Well, there was some sort of process running but it was just a menu. I could get a about window which just said Java.
Sort of bummed. Wanted to see all the blending because its useful. |

The webstart WORK on my Macbook Pro, but I see only a black rectangle on the upper left corner and nothing...
Try to fix this... cuz it can be really usefull especially if you can directly load/run from the page.
Your concept is good, just need a bit of fine tuning ;)
(I still bookmark your page... hoping that you'll fix this...)
Cheers! |
