Cannot open .jnlp OR Disabling Java as it is too old and likely to be out of date.


When I open .jnlp file with firefox (and choose javaws) nothing happens.
When I open .jnlp file with javaws under command line I get msg like following:
Code:
./javaws guistart.jnlp
Disabling Java as it is too old and likely to be out of date. To reenable use jcontrol utility
I have set security to Medium (thats the lowest level) in jcontrol.

I have no clue why it does not work. On my colleague's PC it just simply works.

Versions:
Code:
java: jre1.7.0_55 (32 bit)
Java(TM) Web Start 10.55.2.13-fcs (32 bit)
Operating system: xubuntu-14.04.1-desktop-amd64 AND xubuntu-14.04-desktop-amd64
To be able to run 32 bit java under 64 bit OS I have added following:
Code:
apt-get install libXext6:i386 libxrender1:i386 libXtst6:i386 libXi6:i386

UPDATE:
it works ONLY if I execute in cli:
Code:
./javaws -verbose guistart.jnlp
