Web Start Options

If you click Web Start client for the Client type on the Additional Options window, the Web Start Settings window launches automatically if the Code Base value is blank. Code Base on the Web Start Options tab is a required field. If there is no value specified for the Code Base, and you cancel out of the Web Start Settings window, the Client type will be reset to Cached client.

If you want to change the Code Base or Document Base after the initial configuration, click Cache/Web Start Options on the Additional Options window.

Code Base:
The Code Base must be a fully-qualified URL that matches the IP address or host name of the Host On-Demand server where your users point their browsers to launch the HTML file generated by the Deployment Wizard. For example, http://your_HOD_server/hod_publish_dir_alias/ or https://9.37.42.42/hod.

If you installed the Deployment Wizard separately from the Windows Host On-Demand server and used the Properties button to specify the URL of your Host On-Demand server to access the online help, that URL appears in the Code Base field. You cannot use a relative URL as the Code Base.

Document Base:
If you use a separate user publish directory to separate files you generate through the Deployment Wizard from files provided by Host On-Demand, you must also specify the Document Base when configuring a Web Start client. The Document Base must be a fully-qualified URL that points to this file on your Web server. For example, if you name your output file HTMLfile on the final window of the Deployment Wizard, specify the following Document Base: http://your_HOD_server/your_publish_dir/HTMLfile.html. You cannot use a relative URL for the Document Base.

If you do not use a separate user publish directory, do not specify a Document Base. The default is the URL you specify for the Code Base.

Description:
Type a short description for this application (optional). The description allows you to distinguish between different pages in the Web Start Application Manager. The default is Host On-Demand.
