Is Sloppy busted on Snow Leopard? I'm getting the following error:

CouldNotLoadArgumentException[ Could not load file/URL specified:
file://localhost/Users/lfrancis/Library/Caches/Java/cache/javaws/http/Dwww.dallaway.com/P80/DMsloppy/AMsloppy.jnlp]
at com.sun.javaws.Main.launchApp(Main.java:327)
at com.sun.javaws.Main.continueInSecureThread(Main.java:252)
at com.sun.javaws.Main$1.run(Main.java:111)
at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:637)

Looking at the file:// location from above I see the directory
structure is not as expected, perhaps the current Java installation
differs from the one that was around on OS X when Sloppy was released?
I seem to remember a similar problem on Leopard but don't remember the
workaround I came up with .

I've just tried it under 10.6.1 and I didn't see an error.

I do note, though, that my Library/Caches structure is very different.
E.g., I have /Users/richard/Library/Caches/Java/cache/6.0/

You can delete/view your caches via Applications/Utilities/Java
Preferences (Network tab). Perhaps that is worth a try?

Cleared the cache with no change. Deleted the old executables and now
the .jlnp runs as expected -- before it launched the old saved as
standalone executables instead.Created a new shortcut and all is good.
Thanks for the quick response!
