A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
I have a DST-sensitive application running under JRE 1.4.2. In order to upgrade users in time for the 2007 DST change, I need to force a download of the latest version. Accordingly, I have added the following line to the JNLP file as per the specification:
<j2se version="1.4.2_13" href="http://java.sun.com/products/autodl/j2se" max-heap-size="128m" />
However, JRE 1.4.2_13 is not available for auto-download. This is critical for my application as it would be difficult if not impossible to do a manual update to hundreds of users.
JUSTIFICATION :
As above.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Automatic download of updated JRE.
ACTUAL -
JNLP application launch fails because it can't find the required version.
---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
As above.
---------- END SOURCE ----------
CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Manual update of all users.
