Oh my goodness! What have to done to tie loadUI to this outdated JavaFX version? I actually had to search and dig to still find this EOL-ed SW on Oracle's website somewhere.
But anyway, I gave it a try: I first uninstalled JavaFX 2.x and the old loadUI fragments (i.e. I also deleted the corresponding subdirectories). Then I installed first JavaFX v1.3.1 (which installed fine on top of the already present Java 1.6.0 update 37. I also defined a JAVAFX_HOME environment variable manually, since I had seen that being used in the loaduitest.bat-file before) and then I installed loadUI v2.1.1.
After the dialog that the installer will now be downloading and installing JavaFX 1.3.1 I see a Java *7* splashscreen (where does that come from? That must be coming from the loadUI installation itself, because there was no Java 7 on that server beforehand! And indeed, there is an entire jre subdirectory underneath the loadUI install directory!). And then shortly after the installer fails with the very same darn error message, namely that it is unable to access the URL http://dl.javafx.com/1.3/javafx-rt-jnlp!
So, what brings?

PS.: My guess, it, that the use of Java 7 is cause of the issue here, because that already comes with the newest JavaFX included.
