  for a login and then returns an exception with a HTTP 401

#### Java Web Start Error:
#### Unable to load resource: https://oneclickServer:8443/spectrum/oneclick.jnlp

 

 

 

 

Environment

Release : 10.4.3 (20.2.7)+

Component : Spectrum Core / OneClick

Cause

 

Starting in Spectrum 10.4.3 (20.2.7) the oneclick.jnlp file on the OneClick server now requires authentication to download the file. In prior releases
   this file could be accessed without authentication.


Resolution


The javaws.exe when run from the command line passing the full URL to the oneclick.jnlp for some reason tries to
  issues a second HTTP GET after the initial request. The second request does not prompt/nor send authenticationa nd
  the request fails.


Workaround: Copy the oneclick.jnlp file locally to the desktop and launch the console from the local oneclick.jnlp.


Note: Be sure to periodically update the oneclick.jnlp file on the desktop so as to pick up any changes made on the server side.
