Dear DragonflyBSD users,

I am trying to get icedtea-web working or a workaround so I can get a
java application working.  It needs iced-tea web start a *.jnlp file.
I see that openjdk + icedtea-web packages do not have a javaws that is
needed so the app can work.  How do I troubleshoot this?

$ ls /usr/local/bin/ja
/usr/local/bin/jar          /usr/local/bin/javac
/usr/local/bin/jarsigner    /usr/local/bin/javadoc
/usr/local/bin/jasper       /usr/local/bin/javah
/usr/local/bin/java         /usr/local/bin/javap
/usr/local/bin/java-rmi.cgi /usr/local/bin/javavm
$ ls /usr/local/bin/javavm
/usr/local/bin/javavm
$ ls -l /usr/local/bin/javavm

On other systems the file is javaws.  I hope there is a way to get it going.

Best Regards,


Antonio
