I have a html welcome page that displays when my rcp application is restarted, but is blank when started using Help->Welcome, or when the the application is run the first time. Anyone has suggestions on where to start?

First I would see if there are any error messages in the log. which is in /metadata/.log under your workspace area on disk. You have probably already looked there so the next step would be start debugging - if your intro is based on CustomizableIntroPart then that is the place to set breakpoints. Intro shows a different page depending on whether or not the intro part is maximized or not.

org.eclipse.ui.intro.config.CustomizableIntroPart.standbySta teChanged(boolean) is the first place I would set a breakpoint.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
I added the following lines to override openIntro() behaviour, and that seems to do the trick:
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getIntroManager().showIntro(null, false);
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getIntroManager().getIntro().stand byStateChanged(false);
