Please Help!! Getting error with Topcoder applet
By ThirdThread, history, 4 years ago, In English

I keep getting the following error with my Topcoder applet(.jnlp file). I also tried to download it again from the website but the link is unresponsive. In a few hours TCO round 2A will start so I need to resolve it before that.

TIA

Hey, If you are using Ubuntu and have JDK 11 :: Java Web Start (JWS) was deprecated in Java 9 and starting with Java 11, Oracle removed JWS from their JDK distributions. This means that clients that have the latest version of Java installed can no longer use JWS-based applications.

You need to use: https://openwebstart.com/ to make it work.

Let me know if this doesn't help :)

      Yeah, Go go to Options and then Setup User Preferences to adjust font size and colors
