Google Chrome – Can’t Open jnlp (Java) files

Posted on by

KB ID 0000354

Problem

It’s annoying but for some reason Google Chrome simply downloads .jnlp files rather than opening and launching the Java applications. You would think that associating .jnlp files so that they open in Chrome would fix the problem, but it does not.

Solution

1. Go to the link that you are trying to launch the Java application from, and Chrome will download it, as before.

2. By default Chrome will list the download on the bottom of the page, and to the right of the filename is a small drop down arrow, click it.

3. From the menu that pops up select “Always open files of this type”.

Problem

I’m running Chrome 11.0.696.25 beta (At time of writing) and I’ve seen this error a few times, usually with Facebook, and it’s been more of an annoyance than anything else. I’ve seen it on my Windows 7 machine, and on my Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook.

Solution

1. Launch Chrome and click the Spanner Icon > Options > Under the hood > Content Settings.

2. Select “All cookies and site data.”

3. Select Remove All >Restart your browser and you should be fine.
