====================================================================
Tested with Mantis beta b04
JRE Bundle : j2re-1_4_2-beta-bin-b04-windows-i586-23_oct_2002.exe
             j2re-1_4_2-beta-bin-b04-solaris-sparc-23_oct_2002.sh
             j2re-1_4_2-beta-bin-b04-solaris-sparcv9-23_oct_2002.sh
JaWS : 1.2-rc (which is included in JRE Mantis b04)
Paltforms : Solaris sparc 9 euc / Ja Windows 2000 Prof. / Ja Window XP Prof.
Browser : Windows -> Netscape 6.2.1, Netscape 7, IE6
             Solaris -> Netscape 4.78
==============================================================================

All JaWS test cases can not be launched from Browser on Solaris 9 sparc and Windows 2000 and Windows XP Prof using JRE Manis b04 and JaWS which is included in JRE Mantis b04.

Cliking test case, dialog comes up and the messages "Loading..." is displayed in dialog.
Next, the message "Stating application..." is displayed in dialog,
however, application can not be launched and Java Console also does not appear.
No error messages are displayed in dialog.

To reproduce;

1. Install browser.

2. Install JRE 1.4.2 b04 and JaWS 1.2-rc which is included in JRE Mantis b04.

3. Go to the URL
   http://i18n-u1-26c.sfbay.sun.com:8080/jaws-i18n/doc/jaws-141-standard.html

4. Click the url for Test Item.
   ex) Test Item 2. #Hello I18N
   http://i18n-u1-26c.sfbay.sun.com:8080/jaws-i18n/test/bat/hello-i18n.jnlp

It seems that necessary test file or data is loaded completely, however,
test case application can not be launched.

* I confirmed that Demo application(Notepad, Draw 4 app) from app-mgr works fine.

* This problem does not occur with JRE Mantis b03 and JaWS 1.2-rc(which is included in JRE Mantis b03) on the same machine.

I tried this with JRE Mantis b03 and JaWS 1.2-rc which is incluede in Mantis b04. This problem does not occur. Therefore, it seems that this problem is caused by JRE mantis b04 problem, not Jaws problem.
However, with JRE Mantis b04 and JaWS for Mantis b03, it is works fine.


I checked as follow;
--------------------
       JRE Mantis JaWS(Mantis b03) JaWS(Mantis b04)
         b03 OK OK
         b04 OK NG

JaWS version which is included Mantis b03: 1.2-rc build(beta-b03)

JaWS version which is included Mantis b04: 1.2-rc build<internal>

I filed this bug as "javawebstart/other" bug.
