Hi,  
I’m trying to use the native client launcher and everything seems to be working up until I try and launch a project.

The following message is displayed “Connected. Downloading Manifest …” and after a while the following error message is displayed:

Error launching application:  
SAXParseException: No manifest found.

When I launch from the webpage it works but our IT department would prefer to use the native client launcher.

Please advise what I am doing wrong or if there are some log files that I can include to help fault finding.

Hi BSH,

What does the command in the shortcut look like?

Here’s a similar post where someone was getting the same error and how they resolved it:

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I added the port number and it is now working.
