Java 9 EA 169 Webstart NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/ws/Service

[Reto Merz]

Hello,

It seems that Java 9 Webstart (still) does not add all modules to the class/module path.
Our Webstart app is signed, requests all-permision and works with the latest Java 6, 7 and 8.

With 9-ea+169 we get this error:

java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/xml/ws/Service
       ... first 45 from cause

Is this a known bug or should this be reported via bugreport.java.com?

Thanks
