Hi, again, Derek.

This turns out to be Issue 1016 which describes the null pointer exception when using Java Web Start to launch a stand-alone app client.

https://glassfish.dev.java.net/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1016

which was fixed for GlassFish V2 (SJS AS 9.1) code but not in time for the GlassFish V1 (SJS AS 9.0ur1p0) build.

You can work around this problem by:

- using a more recent build of GlassFish, or

- using your current GlassFish/SJSAS installation but packaging your stand-alone app client in an EAR and deploying it that way.

I'm sorry it took longer than I'd hope to get to the bottom of this.

- Tim
