Hello, I've got it going using Startup + a batch script, but does it work when installed as a service? I don't want to babysit the slaves and using Startup is a gross hack for this (the user needs to be logged in, there's a console window anyone connecting to the slave might close by accident, etc).
I've been through basically all the bug reports on Jira and done everything they recommended and still have no result. Now the service is failing without logging anything - either to disk or to the Event Viewer :( Regards, _____________ Costin Caraivan On Fri, Jul 26, 2013 at 2:16 PM, Mark Waite <markwa...@yahoo.com> wrote: > Java Web Start has worked fine for me on two different Windows 8 64 bit > machines.
