you ran it on a windows machine?

Yes. I believe the reason you get that error message is that the web server returns an html page for that url instead of the xml document. Possibly due to a proxy.

yup I think so too, but this is the only windows machine I have available to test it 😉

Just go to that url in a browser and you'll probably see the issue at once.

in the browser I can access it just fine

http://ronsmits.org/~ron/keepassjava/app.xml that is.

The xml document?

yes

but this proxy here is terrible

Then it is due to the user agent Java uses by default.

bluecoat is known for being terrible

docker and such dont work either here

Try changing your browser usager agent to

Java/1.0.8_102

using a plugin that supports changing it. Then go to the url and you should have your answer. If that is the case, I'll add support for setting the user agent in FXLauncher.

nope still works

Weird.. OK, next up - install WireShark and extract the http request while running FXLauncher. Get the payload and it should be apparent.

wireshark is not allowed here

Aj aj aj 🙂 What about logs from bluecoat?

If a request is denied you should be able to find out why.

not acceccible 🙂

this company is a bit paranoid

well, I could always make a custom version of fxlauncher that logs the payload...

nah dont bother

I will jus download the stuff and change the app.xml

OK, but let me know if there is something we can adjust in FXLauncher to help this situation. Both logging and user agent would be valuable features.

Gotta run to lunch!

@thomasnield: I'm also very keen on OSGi for both frontend and backend at the moment, so I'd like to help in any way I can!

@ron Did you want to expose the guava bus as an OSGi service?

If I go to OSGi to make it pluggable I think I have to

The server part would then be a plugin too
