About Java Web Start

Response Application uses Java Web Start to eliminate the need for installing or updating files on your computer. Java Web Start automatically downloads all necessary files from the Response Web server. The files are then cached on your computer so the application is ready to use whenever you want. Each time you launch Response Applications, Java Web Start checks the Web server to see if a new version of the application is available; if so, the new version is automatically downloaded and launched. You see the most current version of the application without having to download, install, or upgrade files.

If Java Web Start is not installed on your machine, all the Response Application icons will be grayed out. Click the “Install Now” link on the bottom of the screen to download Web Start and begin using Response Applications.

Pre-Requisite for running Response applications in Web Start

The JRE on which the client runs is made configurable. So, it can be configured in such a way that client will run on any required JRE.

But, VERINT has certified only on 1.8.0_31.

 

JRE is configurable in jnlp files under <Web Server HOME>and html files.

 

By default, the JRE in jnlp files are specified as 1.8.0_31. Which means, the application will run 1.8.0_31 and above in 1.8 series.

 

Configuration should be made in all JNLP files. Also, different JRE can be set for Agent, Admin, Report and Root.

maiclient.jnlp/admin.jnlp/root.jnlp/reporter.jnlp

 

    <argument>jre</argument>

<argument>1.8.0_31</argument>  

 


Running Response on Windows
VISTA or later

Following are some necessary steps to enable Response to run on Windows VISTA.

2.                   Clear the check next to Enable protected Mode. This will disable the protected mode.

3.                   Restart Internet Explorer to complete the change.

 

Run Java Web Start as Administrator

 

After installing Java Web Start, run Java Web Start as an administrator.

1.                   Right-click Properties of Applet shortcut.

2.                   Go to the compatibility tab, enable "Run this program as an administrator."

Troubleshooting:

1.                   The following error may appear when you try to launch applications in Web Start Mode after you install JRE 1.8.0_31 in a desktop which already contains any other Java Web Start or JRE version.

"Bad installation. Error invoking Java VM..."

      Please follow the steps below to fix this error:

a.                                    Launch Java Control Panel:

Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Java

b.                        Go to Java Tab

c.       Click "View" button in "Java Application Runtime Settings" panel

d.       You will see a list of JREs available with some of them outlined in red color.

e.       Select the red colored JREs and remove them one by one.

f.         Click OK and Exit the Java Control Panel.

2.                   While launching Response client applications, the Java Web Start console shows:

"Bad MIME Type" error OR "..server returns a invalid MIME type..."

       To resolve this error, close all the browser instances and Java applications. Delete all the content from the following directory:

       C:\Documents and Settings\<user-name>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment.

 

3.                   Upon clicking the KANA client icon in the home page, Java Web Start is not launched, instead, the browser loads jnlp content in XML format.

       To resolve this issue, you may need to add jnlp MIME type to your web server MIME types.

       For Apache Web Server, add the following line to mime.types file existing in "<Apache-Home>/conf" folder:

application/x-java-jnlp-file         jnlp

       For IIS, add a MIME Map for the file extension ".jnlp"... with content type "application/x-java-jnlp-file" in IIS Service Manager.

 

4.                   Even after adding .jnlp MIME mapping in the web server, Java Web Start is launched, but throws error saying:

    "Bad mime type found while accessing resource ***.jnlp

This error may be due to any fire wall or proxy configurations not recognizing .jnlp formats. You may work with your System Administrators to resolve this issue.

 

5.                   In case of any other errors due to corrupt Java Web Start installation, the following steps may help resolve the issues.

a.                                 Close all the browser instances and Java applications. Delete all the content from the below directory. C:\Documents and Settings\<user-name>\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment.

b.                                 Un-install any existing versions of Java Web Start through Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs -> Java Web Start -> Remove (Note: You may have to stop all services such as IIS if installed on the local desktop, browser windows to uninstall Web Start completely).

c.                                 Also, make sure that the folder mentioned below is completely deleted along with its contents C:\Program Files\Java Web Start (You may be required to close any open browser windows to delete this folder).

 

6.                   Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime error is shown while launching Knowledge Admin / Knowledge Base tabs in Response - IQ integrated environment.

Resolution:
This error may occur due to incorrect installation of JRE plugin. Uninstalling and reinstalling the JRE plugin may solve this issue.
