Exception starting Webstart

I'm getting the LaunchDesc: null exception that seems to be fairly prevalent on the Internet, yet with no useful solutions.
A quirky thing that happens is if I use the server name in the URL, I get a HTTP 503 error, if I use the IP address, I get a 403 error. Exception stays the same.
I can run the exact same application fine from my local machine.
We're using Weblogic as our server.
Anyone that knows either a way to prevent this error from happening, or a decent resource on the matter, I'd appreciate the help.
Thanks!

Apparently the problem was with having a proxy configured in my Webstart preferences. Not sure if this is an issue we need to look at in the future, but at least it's working.
