Bug Description

Binary package hint: sun-java6-bin

When trying to start a Java app from a downloaded 8KB Java Web Start (jnlp) file the Java Control Center and Cache viewer appears and that's that. ???

I am using Ubuntu 8.04 Beta with the latest updates until when I posted this.
I am using the latest version of sun-java6-bin and sun-java6-jre
I expected the Java application to download and run when opening the jnlp file like in previous Ubuntu versions.

This is caused by incorrect sun-java6-javaws.desktop entry. See #84501 for Darren Albers' description and fix.
