Should it not execute, either the the jar file is corrupted (re-install chimera) or your Java runtime is corrupted.
Here are some steps to using ‘HTML & JNLP creator’:

2. On the next screen you will be asked to give the application a name, author and the location to which the chimera.jar file will be (this is not where it is saved to but the http://…… location).
3. On the next screen you can select a theme and if you want to run your program in an applet(you can also select the size of the applet window at this point).
4. After this you have the choice to create a .jnlp file or a .html file.
5. Once an option is selected you can the select the location for the file to be created. Once the directory is selected the file is created and is ready to be used.
