OpenWebStart - problem

[konrad.philipp@…]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. open JOSM --> Window appears "Please install OpenWebStart"
2. install OpenWebStart like displayed
3. restart JOSM --> window appears again

What is the expected result?

Bevause I installed OpenWebStart, the window should never show up again

What happens instead?

The window appears again. It seems, as if JOSM does not use the installed OenWebStart.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

The whole dialogue is very confusing. You beg for installing OWS, but I have to choose between "Yes" and "Install OpenWebStart".
What does this mean? You should explain it!

You are still starting JOSM with Oracle Java 8 Webstart. OpenWebStart does not (by default) override pre-existing file associations.

So you probably want to change the defaults.

OpenWebStart has instructions here: ​https://openwebstart.com/docs/OWSGuide.html#_jnlp_file_association

Thank you!

But it seems as if it doesn't work.
None of the applications for the .jnlp file association is called OpenWebStart. I just tried the only one choice "Java Web Launcher" with the folloing success:

It looks like you probably want "Launcher for .jnlp applications according to JSR-56". The icon matches the branding for OpenWebStart.

It also looks like you used a different route than the link I pasted. But it should work anyway.

[anonymous]

I didn't find the route suggested by your link. Maybe it is not the Win10-route?

This "Launcher for .jnlp applications according to JSR-56" was the pre-installed one. I now switched it back to it with the following success:

Are you starting JOSM from the JNLP or from a shortcut generated after starting the JNLP?

If you don't know:

1) Delete the shortcut/file you are using to launch JOSM (this will not delete your preferences or plugins)
2) Redownload the JNLP from https://josm.openstreetmap.de/download/josm.jnlp
3) Follow the instructions in ​https://openwebstart.com/docs/OWSGuide.html#_jnlp_file_association
4) Start JOSM

[konrad.philipp@…]

What is the JNLP?

I started JOSM from the point I will try to show you in the next screenshot.

[konrad.philipp@…]

Next problem: There is no OpenWebStart in C>Programme. But it is installed as you could see in Screenshot (4).

[anonymous]

I now used the search function of the Explorer. Which of these OpenWebStarts should I use? (see Screenshot)

[taylor.smock]

Replying to konrad.philipp@…:

What is the JNLP?

I started JOSM from the point I will try to show you in the next screenshot.

It looks like you are using a shortcut added by Oracle Java WebStart. Remove that shortcut (IIRC, right-click + remove, but its been awhile since I used Windows).

After that, download https://josm.openstreetmap.de/download/josm.jnlp (this is the aforementioned JNLP), and run that. It will ask to put shortcuts on the desktop/start menu (whether or not you add them is up to you), and Oracle Java Webstart probably asked the same question.

If you add the shortcuts, you can delete the downloaded file.

[konrad.philipp@…]

Yes!
That worked!

Thank you very much!

And I can change background pictures again!
