Hi Ranchers !
We are experiencing a strange issue with a
Java Web Start application, maybe someone of you could help us to find the solution ?
The scenario:
We have a Java Web Start application that ran flawless from within a Firefox browser; the operating system being Win XP, and java JRE 1.6 were installed.
We made also a backup of the pc, using Acronis 2011. So far, so good.
Las time we had an hardware issue, and we have to change the pc with another one. The hardware of the new pc differs a bit from the old one; but we could install all the operative system and data on the new pc using the Acronis backup, and that without problem - well, we had of course to install the right drivers for the 'new' hardware.
The problem arises as we run again the same Java Web Start application; in fact, it works no more, and java complains about a strange Class Cast exception:
So we have unistalled JRE, ran CrapCleaner, and re-installed java JRE - same error. We have also tried to install a newer java JRE, still no joy.
We suppose that the problem could be that the target pc has a different hardware from the source pc; still, apart of un-install and re-install the JRE, we don't know how to solve the issue.
Any suggestion would greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sergio.
