Public bug reported:

When I run javaws provided by open jdk it crashes with (I can only see this 
error in the console):
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
        at 
net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.InstallDialog.<init>(InstallDialog.java:58)
        at 
net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.InstallDialog.getInstallDir(InstallDialog.java:153)
        at 
net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.JNLPRuntime.getDefaultBaseDir(JNLPRuntime.java:265)
        at net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.Boot.getBaseDir(Boot.java:407)
        at net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.Boot.run(Boot.java:168)
        at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method)
        at net.sourceforge.jnlp.runtime.Boot.main(Boot.java:159)

The link in the menu which opens the viewer works ok.

I tried just running javaws as well point it towards a few webstart apps
and the result is the same.
