Posted July 10, 2018 I just installed Linux Mint 19 and Oracle Java 8 on my laptop. Every time I try to launch the game I keep getting a window that tells me Java blocked it from doing its thing even though I have http://wurmonline.com on the exception list. I still have the same problem when I disable Java security. Can some one help a brother out? I sort of a new Linux user and all this extra mucking around to get anything to work is really frustrating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 11, 2018 I got it working. Apparently I was using the wrong Java console. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 12, 2018 I strongly recommend to not use sudo to start java webstart. Java webstart is downloading the application (may also contain native code) and executes it. Be careful with using root permissions. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With a fresh install of Linux Ubuntu / Mint, OpenJDK11 is installed and set to the default. You will need to first install Java 8, then set Java 8 to be the default. Install Java 8: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html Set default version & remove old: (You really only have to go as far as changing the default ) https://www.2daygeek.com/remove-uninstall-oracle-java-openjdk-on-ubuntu-centos-debian-fedora-mint-rhel-opensuse/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
