Java Web Start can't open jnlp file

Question

I downloaded the file SwingSet3.jnlp from here: java.net/.../SwingSet3.jnlp. I am running a Windows 7 64Bit operating system, every time i click on the file, java 7 starts but then gives me the following error: Application could not be started.

This is the Exception:

com.sun.deploy.net.FailedDownloadException: Resource could not be loaded: http://download.java.net/javadesktop/swingset3/SwingSet3.jnlp

Thats not the only problem, when i go to a site like this: Game Of Life I get a Exception : ClassNotFoundException

Maybe someone knows whats the problem.

Now i get some other exception when trying to open the file :

I tried a lot of different things. I disabled my firewall, the avira and the windows defender (this one was already disabled). I also did this: netsh advfirewall set global StatefulFTP disable

But also i installed a hotfix from windows for some FTP problems (enter link description here), enter link description here. I also disabled IPV6 for my internet connection.

From Control Panel-> Java Control Panel in settings i deleted the Trace and Logfiles and Cached Applications. I also unchecked the box to keep temporary files on my computer.

The only thing left in Java Control Panel is to change the internet settings, i could set it to Use ProxyServer, but i don't know what address or port number i should put inside.

The interesting thing is that Eclipse works fine!

I really don't have a idea what i should do next. It seems also that no one knows hear also how to resolve the Problem.

Without doing anything, i just upgraded my Windows from Windows 7 Home Edition to Professional, and now the problems are gone.

Answer 1

Without doing something regarding this problem i upgraded my Windows 7 Home To Windows 7 Professional and the problem with java is now past.

I remember also that i used CCleaner Programm, but i dont think this solved the problem. Weird, but maybe there is some problem with Java and Windows 7 Home Edition 64 Bit
