Java - Furniture Libraby Plug in issues - illegal redirect? & apparently Java not operational anymore?

[CeCBek]

Chat GPT trying to help me to solve this issue - I have pdf file with all the correspondence but cant seem to find an attach file options here - so this is the issue ...


The error message in the image indicates a java.lang.SecurityException: illegal URL redirect when trying to launch Sweet Home 3D using a .jnlp (Java Web Start) file. Here are some possible fixes: Run JNLP files with the latest Java version

Installed java 8...
SO tried numerous ''fixes'' but none helped and one of the last suggestions was to replace java - HERE is why...

Java Web Start (JWS) was deprecated in Java 9, and starting with Java 11, Oracle removed JWS from their JDK distributions. This means that clients that have the latest version of Java installed can no longer use JWS-based applications. And since public support of Java 8 has ended in Q2/2019, companies no longer get any updates and security fixes for Java Web Start.

This is why we decided to create OpenWebStart, an open source reimplementation of the Java Web Start technology. Our replacement provides the most commonly used features of Java Web Start and the JNLP standard, so that your customers can continue using applications based on Java Web Start and JNLP without any change. [:D]

Since you're running Java Web Start (JWS) 11.441.2.07 with JRE 1.8.0_441, and still getting an "Illegal URL Redirect" error, here are a few things to try: MORE suggestions followed but non worked - CONTINUE to get illegal redirect error...

However I have not solved the issue but cant see straight anymore - and am going to call it a night ... in the meantime can anyone assist with possible issue? why I cant get the Furniture or Texture Library Apps running ... I can send the PDF file.... with all the correspondence with ChatGPT... [:p]

PS - just lost my entire 10 000 images folder - 3 months down the line and now need to redownload and install SOME of them! cant take 3 months or upload one at a time again - that will drive me insane! LOL..

PLEASE HELP! [:)]

AMENDMENT!

The issue is with Webstart app and also not even picking up the option to open the Furniture Library with Java Webstart - the download file has blank icon now .... going from bad to worse!

It looks like that Chat GPT is not reliable to solve your issue yet.
If you want to install Sweet Home 3D, use its installer at https://sourceforge.net/projects/sweeth ... ome3D-7.5/

With these kind of questions ALWAYS include your system details. It makes a huge difference if you're on Windows, Linux, or Mac.

He asked about the Furniture Library Editor, which doesn't include its own Java like Sweet Home 3D does. It would be nice if the Furniture Library Editor by default works with the Sweet Home 3D supplied Java version. Currently that is not always true.

But sometimes it does [:)]
Make sure you have correctly installed Sweet Home 3D.
Then try starting the Furniture Library Editor with this command line:

Code: Select all

<[i]path-to-sweethome3d-install-dir[/i]>/runtime/bin/java -jar <[i]path-to-furniture-library-editor[/i]>/FurnitureLibraryEditor-2.2.jar

If that works you can create a command/bat/bash script with this:
(Linux sh example)

Code: Select all

exec <[i]path-to-sweethome3d-install-dir[/i]>/runtime/bin/java -jar <[i]path-to-furniture-library-editor[/i]>/FurnitureLibraryEditor-2.2.jar

Use the script to start your Furniture Library Editor.

HAVE CHAGNED THE JNLP FILE - FROM HTTP TO HTTPS ---

<jnlp spec="1.5+"
codebase="https://www.sweethome3d.com/"
href="SweetHome3D.jnlp">

ADDED THE LINK TO JAVA SECURITY EXCEPTION SITE LIST as above and still no luck!

The furniture libraby app does not show open with JAVA WEBSTART - as an option - the icon remains BLANK -NOT SHOWING ANY ICONS - should show the java icon not so?

THANK YOU Emmanuel and Keet for your help!!!
