JNLP Error with JaNeLA

I have downloaded a jnlp file from Here and I have downloaded the JaNeLA from Here When I analyze the file I have got following errors.

This is the text report 

JaNeLA Report - version 11.05.17


    Report for file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/sample.jnlp

    Content type application/xml does not equal expected type of application/x-java-jnlp-file
    The element type "homepage" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "</homepage>".

I know the error are straight forwards but I am not able to resolve them and believe my I have tried my best. Can anyone help?

Here is my JNLP file.

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- JNLP File for SwingSet2 Demo Application -->

The first problem can be ignored. It is because the jnlp was retrieved from the file system, rather than a web server.

The JaNeLA help page says this:

Warning Content type application/xml does not equal expected type of application/x-java-jnlp-file The content-type or MIME type of the application was not the expected type.

If this error is being returned from a real live server, it causes the client browser to simply display the content of the JNLP files as XML in the browser! Contact the server administraters to add the content-type.
It is typical for JNLP files checked from the local file system to be of incorrect type.

I am interested to know how to fix the first problem

Content type application/xml does not equal expected type of application/x-java-jnlp-file

The JaNeLA help suggests:

The content-type or MIME type of the application was not the expected type.

  • If this error is being returned from a real live server, it causes the client browser to simply display the content of the JNLP files as XML in the browser! Contact the server administraters to add the content-type.
  • It is typical for JNLP files checked from the local file system to be of incorrect type.

The source of that JNLP is:

file:/C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/sample.jnlp

..so you can safely ignore that warning.

Other problem

As mentioned n a comment.

  <information os="linux">   
    <title> SwingSet2 Demo on Linux </title>
    <homepage href="docs/linuxhelp.html">
  </information>

That homepage element should be terminated with a /, like this:

  <information os="linux">   
    <title> SwingSet2 Demo on Linux </title>
    <homepage href="docs/linuxhelp.html"/>
  </information>

Also, you didn't close the homepage tag. Try this:

<homepage href="docs/linuxhelp.html"/>
