Xpendable

The way I found it was by downloading the admin.jnlp file and running it. I had to re-associate jnlp files with Java Web Start by right-clicking on the icon and selecting "Open With..." and choosing Java Web Start. Once I did this, Windows prompted me with a message telling me that this program was "blocked" and offeres two options on this message: "Unblock" and "Keep Blocking". Obviously choosing "Unblock" is key. Hope this helps.

It's working now. Because Java updated, Windows Firewall saw it as a new program and was initally blocking all socket communication to and from the Java program. Once I fixed this, it worked.

I figured out what happened. Because of the Java update, the Microsoft Firewall thought it was a new program and was blocking communication. I tried the admin.jnlp which initially didn't work because it was not associated with the Java Web Start. Once I told Windows to open that with Java Web Start, I got the Windows Firewall blocking messages. I unblocked it and bingo, the Admin console came up!

I'm going to: http://192.168.1.2:81/admin Which is how I've always accessed it. If I take the "admin" part off the URL, I get use the HTML control pages for direct control. Those work fine. As soon as I try to go to the admin program, I get the Java loading logo and it just hangs. Rolling back my JVM is not an option. I'm using Windows Vista 64-bit by the way.

I am having the same problem. Used to work fine, but now it just hangs trying to access the admin console for the ISY. Only version of Java is Java 7 update 5. I suspect Oracle changed something that broke it.
