I'm posting this to the development list even though it's a deployment
question because it doesn't seem like anyone posts to the deployment
list.
My situation is that I've developed a Java Client app deployed it to my
powerbook, connected from a Win2K Professional machine, downloaded the
jnlp file and WebStart correctly launched my application. It was even
fast for a Java application!
Unfortunately, the real deployment environment will be on Win2K Server.
I've tried this out, connected and downloaded the jnlp file, WebStart
downloads the .jar files and closes after the "Starting Application"
message, but the app never displays although the java process is
running. Same thing happens if I connect from my mac to the win2k
server.
I'll just quickly summarize how I deployed the application:
Build from command-line on my mac with the commands
pbxbuild install -buildstyle Deployment DSTROOT=~/Desktop
pbxbuild install -buildstyle WebServer DSTROOT=/~Desktop
That creates a Library folder on my desktop with a WebObjects and
WebServer directory below that. It works the same as it would if I had
set DSTROOT=/ which is how I built the app when I deployed it on my
powerbook.
Next, I copy that Library folder to the windows machine, copy
Library/WebObjects to the C: drive and copy just the .woa and contents
of the Java directory (under the WebServer/.... directory) to
c:\inetpub\wwwroot\WebObjects. All the files should now be in the
correct locations in Windows but maybe this is where my mistake lies.
Thanks,
Joe Catalano
