The script that executes javaws requires a simple patch to execute
correctly:

while [ -L "$PRG" ]; do
ls=`/bin/ls -ld "$PRG"`
- link=`/usr/bin/expr "$ls" : '.*-> \(.*\)$'`
- if /usr/bin/expr "$link" : '/' > /dev/null; then

prg="$link"
else
prg="`/usr/bin/dirname $PRG`/$link"
Apply this patch to the native javaws script(see path) and it will work.
Please email me with any questions.
Best regards,
