To reproduce the bug: open the above URL in Epiphany. This is a so called Java Web Start file, which uses the web start feature in Java to download the actual .jar file and then run it using the system Java. It doesn't directly have anything to do with the browser, besides the browser downloading the file and handing it to Java. This needs to happen properly, of course. Feisty's Epiphany seems to be not doing its thing properly here, with Java 6. Again, this might be a Java bug, I'm not familiar enough with Java to say, but the fact that it works in Firefox is probably a lead. (Does Firefox use the system MIME configuratoin?) -- Java6 Web Start just opens the Java control panel instead of running the application https://launchpad.net/bugs/84501 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
