Chrome version 5.0.307.11 beta using Ubuntu Linux - same issue. Had to
publish a
message asking users of my site to not use Chrome if they want to use my
site
properly.
I can't imagine this being a complex bug to fix because a) it's easily
reproducible
and b) associating JWS with a specific mime-type/extension is, from an
outside
perspective, not too cumbersome.

Comment #32 on issue 10877 by nalyat: Chrome does not launch Java
ok, after a bit of search, I fixed this problem..
basically you have to tell the application launcher how to handle the
mime-type
application/x-java-jnlp-file. chrome uses xdg-open to launch the
applications, and
the application - mime type matching is made through xdg-mime.
you can use the attached file to manage this:
> xdg-mime install java-jnlp.xdg.xml
the xml file contains the *.jnlp.php, for dynamically launching jnlps.
Add/remove
more extensions as you please.

Comment #34 on issue 10877 by andre.ocosta: Chrome does not launch Java
It didn't work on Fedora 12 :-( The "xdg-mime install" command ran
just fine, and "xdg-mime query filetype somefile.jnlp" returns
application/x-java-jnlp-file as expected. However, gedit is still
the preferred to open .jnlp files.
I found sun-javaws.desktop under the jre/lib/desktop/applications,
and I ran
xdg-mime default /usr/java/latest/jre/lib/desktop/applications/sun-
javaws.desktop application/x-java-jnlp-file
and now
xdg-mime query default application/x-java-jnlp-file
returns
/usr/java/latest/jre/lib/desktop/applications/sun-javaws.desktop
However, "xdg-open somefile.jnlp" still opens gedit. Could this be
related to the fact that "file somefile.jnlp" returns "XML document
text"? Any additional tips?

I guess I finally found out how to "fix" this, at least on Fedora 13
(credit goes to an answer on Fedora ML). It seems to be a GNOME bug after
all.
If you try to associate JNLP files to javaws by
right-click on the file > Open With > Another Application ... > javaws
and checking "Remember this application ...", it doesn't work (next time
you double-click the file it will open with gedit).
BUT if you set file association by
right-click > Permissions > Open With tab > javaws
it *DOES* work, file association sticks. If you open a JNLP file through
Chrome, it will work =)

because they don't, this is a deal breaker. I have been using this browser

Google has the same problem with both Java WebStart and Microsoft's
ClickOnce. Google Developers, if you read this: Java WebStart and
Microsoft ClickOnce are accepted standards. You must support these if
Chrome is to be a standards based browser. Otherwise, you're just being
anticompetitive. I say this as a neutral 3rd party ISV - I just want my
apps (both WebStart & ClickOnce) to be supported properly on all browsers.

The really sad thing about this bug is that there are people who really want
to fix it and get absolutely nowhere with some of the chromium developers. I
bought Visual Studio primarily so I could start compiling chromium on
Windows to work on this bug (as well as getting into Windows programming). I
started an initial debate with the people I was told to. I drew up a design
document, it was discussed - by all except the one person who seems to be
responsible for making the decision. Nearly a month has passed since he was
asked to give the go-ahead on or comment on the proposal, and nothing. It
seems there are only 1 or two people who can have the final say on anything
that impacts the UI, and they are either completely overloaded or completely
disinterested in helping the community at large and only work on the stuff
thats in front of them, instead of giving developers such as myself a bit of
leeway or encouragement to help them help make chromium a better product. I
find it quite sad really.
So for the myriad number of people that this affects, don't hold your
breath. Alternately, I may just go ahead and fix this on my own branch of
the code and I will post builds from that branch which people can either
use, or not, as they see fit.

To get Google Chrome to open the file automatically with Java runtime,
simply click to download the file and click the “Down Arrow” next to the
file and select “Always open files of this type”. This should make Google
Chrome launch the file automatically the next time you click on URLS launch
JNLP files.

I am also unable to get Chrome on linux to launch Curl applets ( Curl as in
www.curl.com and not cURL)
Curl applets had been an alternative to Gears and JavaFX - but used mostly
in a few corp's in Japan and discretely elsewhere in some large corp's (
clients of Thomson Reuters Tax div GRC customers via acquisition of
paisley.com of MN, USA)
Curl in Japan (curlap.com) has work underway on a Java ORB so this issue in
Chrome on linux is annoying ... - the issue is Linux only TTBOMK
Curl in banking is about as well-kept a secret as VW Smalltalk in banking
prior to some chatter from NY. Smalltalk was big at a telco with some
mobile over-charging issues - it will be amusing if those came from an app
that had replaced Smalltalk ...
Hope these bugs get fixed before Chrome leaves beta ...

This is an issue with Google Chrome 6.0.472.53. Some of our equipment

http://.../viewer.jnlp(10.0.3.223@0@idrac-HV00LM1,+PowerEdge+R610,+User-root@1287580593721)
Selecting "Always open files of this type" does nothing because that
appears to be a tool for mapping file extensions. These documents (and
really everything else) need to be identified by MIME type, not file

http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=10877
The way I see it, this behavior isn't a Chrome bug, it's rooted in the fact
the Chrome consciously does not manage its own set of file extension ->
launcher application associations. Instead, it relies on the operating
system / desktop environment to provide those associations for it. This
means that you have to configure your system (e.g. Windows or Gnome) such
that it opens .jnlp files with javaws (the webstart launcher). From then
on, Chrome will use that setting and open .jnlp files with javaws (after
clicking "Open" in the download bar, or automatically after you
check "Always open files of this type" there). This is the way to "fix"
this issue. Google cannot really "fix" this themselves because Chrome
deliberately doesn't contain any code that makes (configurable) decisions
on what application to use to run what downloaded files -- they
deliberately use the OS settings for that.

Please find enclosed the file /trunk/src/net/base/mime_util.cc that I have
modified to try fixing this bug. application/x-java-jnlp-file was never
returned for a jnlp file, it was not returned by the platform-specific mime
type handler and it was not returned by the platform-agnostic mime type
handler. As it is not a platform-specific mime type, it has to be put in
the platform-agnostic mime type handler. I'm not sure it fixes completely
this bug BUT it improves the situation on Linux as the correct mime type is
returned to the application used to open a JNLP file, for example
Konqueror. Please use it as soon as possible.

Thanks. Some file browsers used by default on Mac OS X and Windows may
detect the file type without using the mime type or they do not take into
account the wrong mime type sent by Chrome/Chromium, that is why your

this piece of information. However, I don't advise you to use php or asp to

Comment #98 on issue 10877 by iparraa: Chrome does not launch Java

Yes, in earlier versions, Chrome download the file as a .jnlp file and let
the user execute the file.
In the last version, Chrome download the .asp file and open it as a text
file.
Making a bigger jnlp file is not a solution (at least for me), because I
generate a jnlp code with different parameters created on the web before
launching the jnlp.
My 'temporal solution' is renaming the .asp file to .jnlp but this is not a
solution for the final users, which are using now IE and FF.
Firefox renames the file automatically when detects the jnlp mime type and
let you launch it with Java Web Start.
On the other hand, IE launches Java Web Start directly without prompt
anything to the user.

Ok -- on trunk, it's now possible to set JNLP to "auto-open" and it will

JNLP to be served.
Put another way, you can set JNLP to "auto-open", and the John Travoltage

This is good news, and will be handy, however I feel the real fix is to
have the ability built into Chrome preferences , that allows you to

I have the exact same problem under Windows 7 64bit, Chrome 9.0.597.98.
What I would like to point out is that the steps listed above by a few
people to click the down arrow and tell Chrome to 'always open files of
this type' does not work. It does absolutely nothing. I tried re-starting
Chrome and same thing. It automatically downloads but then does absolutely
nothing. I am using this to try and access my DRAC (Dell Remote Access
Console) on a server remotely. Under IE 7,8,9 works without issue. Under
Chrome, it just downloads the file and sits there. It would be nice to just
have this work out of the box or to at least provide end users with a
simple warning if you do not want this on by default. But at least don't
make it hard to have this work seamlessly.
BTW, I had the same problem on my Mac and there I had to follow some other
instructions and actually register the file association with an executable
in a directory. After that it worked like a charm. But on Windows, it does
not work for me.

Same problem. Chrome 10.0.648.133/Vista x86.
There is a workaround -- after enabling auto-open, when the JNLP file is
being downloaded, you will see it at the left bottom with "SAVE"
or "DISCARD", click "SAVE" then it will auto launch. Hope this helps.

I just verified that it didn't auto launch my jnlp after clicking it in dev
chrome 11. This should ideally work just like an applet where the menu
above pops up and asks if you want to run java application. My concern is
that it still is dumping the jnlp to Downloads and is numbering it
file(1).jnlp, file(2).jnlp, etc. which will continue to take up space and
never get cleaned up as it is not going to the temp directory and not
getting cleaned up once the browser is closed. I understand that customers
can set auto-open of jnlp, but that is not what I'd like to happen.

Kenneth Bradley Russell and James Gosling are able to fix this bug but the
problem does not rely in any Java source code as Chrome is written in C++.
However, the fix already used in Chrome 10 works even though some people do
not like its behavior and I provided another fix. If the code has not been
deeply restructured, a new fix is not really necessary, otherwise I will
give it a quick look.

BTW it is possible to achieve desired behavior by writing NPAPI plugin
(there are download managers that integrate with Chrome this way).
Unfortunately sun/oracle never really cared. Even their Firefox integration
is rather bad, yet Microsoft managed to integrate .NET ClickOnce properly.

Hi guys,
you need to set JNLP files to auto-open. To do this:
1.) Download a JNLP file
2.) In the download bar, right-click the item
3.) Choose "Always open this type of file"
After that, this should work.

http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=10877
@thakis I don't think it is expectable behavior for jnlp where the user has
to select open or auto-open. Most users do not even know what a jnlp file
is or what to do with it. For example, nobody expects to open a file when
you launch an adobe air program. Here is an example. http://chessjam.com/
clicking install does not prompt you to save a file to open. It just
launches the air installer. I believe the same thing should happen for the
jnlp. All the other browsers perform in such a way. If google is worried
about launching something harmful then it should probably display something
like what I suggested in comment 123.

@mwisnicki I don't agree with you, Firefox integration of the plugin 2 of
J2SE 1.6 is excellent, there had been numerous problems with the plugin 1
but these problems did not affect Java Web Start as far as I know. .NET
ClickOnce works only on a single family of operating system, you cannot
compare this thing with Java Web Start. Can you tell me which version of
Chrome you use please?
@thakis It works for me. However, I agree with the previous comment. The
treatment of Java in Chrome is unfair, I see the (bonus) dangerous file
warning whereas there is already the scary warning of Java Web Start for
signed applications requiring some authorizations. If you want to
discourage the final users from launching Java applications, keep the same
behavior :(
@supag The default scary warnings of Java are enough, don't they? On which
operating system did you try Chrome 11?

Comment #136 on issue 10877 by mwisnicki: Chrome does not launch Java

@goues...
It's certainly less than excellent (unlike ClickOnce). Firefox basically
treats JNLP exactly the same way as Chrome except it downloads this file to
$TMP and I already mentioned that in comment 73. Such treatment causes JNLP
files to not work if codebase is not hardcoded into them, yet codebase is
optional according to jnlp documentation.
That ClickOnce works only on windows does not really matter as its Firefox
plugin is pure javascript and very simple, it just catches download of
clickonce file and passes the url to clickonce launcher. With 3 simple
changes it could be used for JNLP.
Anyway this is mostly Oracle's problem. They can easily provide working
WebStart solution for Chrome and Firefox if they want. Instead they (and
Sun before them) choose to ignore bugs and other deficiencies of WebStart.
In fact they don't even accept such bugs into their bug system (which is
moderated).
I'm using Chrome 11 if you really need to know.

Oh and one more thing. There is a javascript jnlp deployment script which
you are supposed to use at
http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/webstart/deploying.html,
or more precisely http://www.java.com/js/deployJava.js.
Unfortunately it uses 'application/java-deployment-toolkit' mime type
handled by special deployment plugin 'npdeployJava1.dll' that:
1. is not registered with Chrome
2. even though it's present in Firefox it does not seem to work there

Comment #138 on issue 10877 by mwisnicki: Chrome does not launch Java

And webstart deployment toolkit does not work by design ;)
From http://java.com/js/deployJava.txt:
launchWebStartApplication: function(jnlp) {
// This methos is disabled for the time being
return false;
},
Been that way since forever. Typical shit like you would expect from Sun.

@thakis ~ your three step solution does not work because there is
no "always open" option on a right-click. I get several "open link in"
options as well as "save as", "copy", "inspect" and "search in" wikipedia
and dictionary. Your solution seems to be specific to your operating
system, because the option you recommend does not exist in Mac OS.

Another vote for Chrome not dealing with JNLP well. Out of the box, I
shouldn't have to download it and then manage settings in any way. If
anything, Chrome could have a pop-up confirming we want to run it, save it,
