[Bug 403104] [NEW] javaws fails to start up properly error msg:javaws Bad installation. Error invoking Java VM (execv)

[peder]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sun-java6-bin

ubuntu release: jaunty.
Description:    Ubuntu 9.04
Release:        9.04

after running:
apt-get update 
apt-get dist-upgrade 

A new version of sun-java6-bin was installed (old version 6-13-1, new 6-14), from this point javaws did not work for the shortcuts on the desktop and via the browser.
I also ran it from the command line "javaws -wait webstar.jnlp" and got the following error message:
javaws Bad installation. Error invoking Java VM (execv)
 
I tried reinstalling the java package, with no luck. In the end down graded to the previous version( sun-java6-bin 6-13-1) and it worked again.

best regards,
Peder.
