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

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... tongue
