Fedora 11 IcedTea/ javaws errors

[Joseph Sinclair]

OpenJDK is pretty complete.  I haven't been able to break it yet.

I don't run applets or javaws often, but haven't had trouble with either.

What you're seeing is a configuration error related to packaging.  There's a missing property setting or the property setting is incorrect.

Read through http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/deployment/deployment-guide/properties.html where the configuration options for
javaws are described, and check your system and/or user config files to be sure they're pointing to reasonable locations.
most likely the deployment.user.cachedir property is misconfigured or it's target directory is missing.
