Hi
I am using Java Web Start with Tomcat 6 and have been banging my head against a wall all day. I don't think the issue is necessarily a Web Start issue but rather an issue with jsp and processing of parameters. I have a WAR, in which are two files of interest. index.html is my starting point: <html> <head><title>Demo Test of Java Web Start</title></head> <body><center><a href="run-report.jsp?arg1=blah">Run A Damn Report!</a></center></body> </html> run-report.jsp is a JSP page that dynamically creates JNLP as follows: <%@ page contentType="application/x-java-jnlp-file" %> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <jnlp codebase="http://localhost:8080/armanta-run-report"; href="run-report.jsp?arg1=<%= request.getParameter("arg1")%>"> <information> <title>Armanta Report Runner</title> <vendor>Armanta, Inc.</vendor> <description>Run a Report</description> </information> <resources> <j2se version="1.4+" /> <jar href="armanta-war.jar" main="true" /> </resources> <application-desc main-class="com.armanta.comm.LocalSocketWriter"> <argument><%= request.getParameter("arg1")%></argument> </application-desc> </jnlp> <% System.out.println("DEBUG:" + request.getParameter("arg1")); %> Essentially, I need ultimately to call my Java Web Start app with blah, passed in as arg1 from the original index.html. If it looks a little squirrelly it's because I have been trying to get this to work properly all day with no luck. At this point, I feel like I have tried every variation out there. I notice that when I click on "Run A Damn Report!" on my web page index.html, in Tomcat I get the following: DEBUG:blah DEBUG:zzz DEBUG:zzz DEBUG:zzz DEBUG:zzz DEBUG:zzz DEBUG:zzz DEBUG:zzz blah is what I want, passed from index.html. However, zzz is what is ultimately passed to my Java app! zzz is a parameter I was messing with a while ago and I'm not sure why it is showing up now as well as why it seems to be called 7 times! Can someone please illuminate what my problem might be and suggest a better approach? Regards Eric
