java and kde

[cdhgold]

i have just updated to fedora 7 and need to run a .jnlp file that opens with javaws ..this file opens find in gnome but under kde it keeps trying to fin the file at the old path and won't let go

gives me error of KDEInit could not launch '/usr/java/jre1.5.0_09/bin/javaws'.

the javaws i need to us is in /usr/java/jre1.5.0_11/javaws

[cdhgold]

if i tell it to open with the browser and tell browser to use javaws it works .. wth??? After the app launches i can close the browser and it runs fine ..how can i get KDE to open it up correctly?

in the kcontrol center under lde components > file permissions. Look for that filetype and see what KDE has as a default to open it. Im guessing that it will have the old path to javaws.

no luck i even created an entry but KDEinit still giving same thing

hmm i know KDE likes to push me around with those sometimes. I would forever be trying to change the default player from totem to mplayer or kaffiene or something..

You could always make a symbolic link.... pretty much the software equivalent of brute force and ignorance.
