Hi,

I have followed the instructions on previous posts to get the current
version of cytoscape working with the cpath plugin, on my local system.
This worked nicely

However when I moved the setup over to a tomcat webserver, cytoscape
through webstart doesn't seem able to find the properties file. I have
tried a url and an absolute address. I would try and use one of the
other command line options to load the plugin, but I wish to set a
property for that plugin
(dataservice.cpath_read_location=http://.......) and I can't see how to
pass in that property, other than the properties file.

So can anyone tell me either 1) how to configure the jnlp file to
ensure cytoscape loads the properties file or 2) how to pass the
property to the cpath plugin.

Many thanks

IainK

I've had a bit of luck by hard coding the data into the plugin code but
this can't stand the test of time.

I've tried putting the cytoscape.props into the data.jar, then
referring to it in the jnlp using the notation:
<argument>-props</argument>
<argument>jar://cytoscape.props</argument>
but cytoscape is still getting the wrong version of the properties.

I have seen a previous mail with the question but no answer there
either.

Can anybody tell me how to get webstart to load the
cytoscape.properties file?
