[Bug-12713] java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: The BROWSE action is not supported on the current platform!

Ignition Early Access

In the designer, if I go to Tools -> Launcher Perspective -> Launch Session, I get the following error in the designer console:

Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: The BROWSE action is not supported on the current platform!
	at java.desktop/java.awt.Desktop.checkActionSupport(Unknown Source)
	at java.desktop/java.awt.Desktop.browse(Unknown Source)
	at com.inductiveautomation.ignition.client.util.BrowserLauncher.openURL(BrowserLauncher.java:553)

This is a Linux system (Debian 9). Ignition8 build 2019021202.

Since xdg-open [url] works, I’m not sure why Ignition is having issues.

Bummer. This is gonna have to go upstream to OpenJDK/Azul.

I’ve submitted a work-around for this. It should appear in a nightly once it’s merged. This thread should get updated when it happens.
