Your webserver needs to support the .jnlp mime type. There are too many web servers and web server version that each configure via different actions, syntax or configuration file location that it is beyond the scope of this document to cover mime type configuration fully. However, this might be enough to get you on the right track is your server is not already configured for jnlp mime type support.

Apache web server

You need to add a mime type entry for jnlp. You can either use the Apache AddType directive inside the Apache httpd.conf file or the .htaccess file, or modify the Apache web server global mime.types file. The location of this mime.types file is specified by the TypesConfig Apache directive. Apache [[http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_mime.html#addtype][recommends] that you use the AddType directive.

that you use the AddType directive.

If you wish to modify the Apache global TypesConfig file and the file exists in /etc/mime.types, then you might try syntax like the following which will grep for the jnlp entry, and if not found will append an entry for jnlp support.

grep -qs 'application/x-java-jnlp-file' /etc/mime.types || echo 'application/x-java-jnlp-file jnlp' >> /etc/mime.types

or grep -qs 'application/x-java-jnlp-file' .htaccess || echo 'AddType application/x-java-jnlp-file jnlp' >> .htaccess

Or, if you wish to modify an .htaccess file in your http://www.example.com/appx/

directory, and your web server is configured to allow .htaccess modificatioons then try the following syntax which will grep for the jnlp entry, and if not found will append an entry for jnlp support. grep -qs 'application/x-java-jnlp-file' /var/www/html/appx/.htaccess || echo 'AddType application/x-java-jnlp-file jnlp' >> /var/www/html/appx/.htaccess
