title: Fatal error or could not launch JNLP
body: <p>I am trying  to access data <a href="http://pcmdi9.llnl.gov/esgf-web-fe/" rel="nofollow">here</a></p>
  
  <p>as per the steps mentioned in <a href="https://modelingguru.nasa.gov/docs/DOC-2312" rel="nofollow">here</a></p>
  
  <p>The step 4 requires me to start the JNLP, and I dont have any knowledge on JAVA so I dont have any knowledge on what this error saying.</p>
  
  <p>Please let me know if any one of you have any idea on this. It will be a great help. [I am using UBUNTU]</p>
  
  <p>Here is the error log:</p>

  <p>I tried to launch the JNLP manually from the command line but all I get is a flash of java console, coming and disappear.</p>
  
  <p>Please let me know. Thanks</p>
