AccessControlException in Applet Running 1.6.0_19

Under JRE 1.6.0_19, my applet now gets an AccessControlException when trying to do a drag-and-drop operation between windows (running in the same applet). It worked OK under _18. Can anyone point me to some documentation on what changed here? I didn't see anything about it in the release notes.

I didn't see anything about it in the release notes.For changes the affect OpenJDK 6, more information can be found through the updates that goes into that. For instance:
"(CVE-2010-0091): Unsigned applet can retrieve the dragged information before drop action occurs (6887703)."
http://ubuntuupdates.org/packages/show/154565
Obviously, an unsigned applet should allow a drag-and-drop within itself, even if system dnd is (partially) available. So there's probably something worth looking into here.

Is there a way to remove "Applet running..." when launching Applet in JWS?

Is there any way to remove the "Applet running..." message at the bottom of the applet when launch in JWS? I have searched in the forum and bug database and cannot find a reference in how to remove it.
I remember in the old applet days (JDK 1.1, 1.2?), everybody are mad at the yellow warning message when launching a new frame from an applet window. It is hard to believe this issue reappears in JDK 1.4.
FYI, all the jar files are signed. And I am using JDK 1.4.1.
Thanks,
Nelson Fong

Dietz,
Thanks for your response. Unfortunately, our application requested all-permission in the jnlp file, and all jar files are signed as well.
In fact, the warning is more like a status bar. The message was changed from "Initializing Applet..." to "Applet running...." during init() method.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Applet runs with jre 1.5 but not jre 1.6

I'm working on an applet which works just fine when 1.5.0_15 is the latest JRE installed on the PC, but does not work when 1.6.0_6 is installed. In the latter case, the applet does not load due to getting a NoClassDefFoundError. Here's the Java Console error trace:

Obviously, when the browser is using JRE 1.5.15 the VM engine can find all the needed classes as the applet runs OK. But when 1.6.6 is installed, things can't be found. I suspect something different in the search paths (though I thought the "java_archive" value was supposed to specify that), in the permissions needed to read the files, or something, but I just can't track down what the difference is (and thus why things are failing with 1.6 installed).
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated!

I've also tried re-rooting the page to the lib directory where everything exists; i.e. changing java_codebase to /HSC/lib and changing java_archive so all jars referenced no longer have ../lib/ in them. Same behavior.
It's almost as if the search path is behaving differently between 1.5 and 1.6, possibly not even being controlled by the values of java_codebase and java_archive at all.

Opening a text file in server from an applet running in the client

Friends,
I want to open a text file in the server(The server machine uses tomcat 4.1.12 server)from an applet running in the client machine;
The applet invokes a servlet that opens the text file;this text file is opened in the server machine; but I want it to be opened in the client machine where the applet is running.
Plese help me to get around this.

You can open the textfile on the servlet and then send the information to the client (applet) as stirngs. The must then applet convert the stirngs into some object or simply display the information in someway. But then the text file that you are opening must be stored in some relevant tomcat directory e.g. on the server. If you want to open a file on the clients computer, you get into signed applets.

Applet runs on local PC but not over network

My applet runs just fine locally within an html container file but when I post it to my website, (both html file and class file in the same folder ) the applet has errors.
Are there some classes that can't be used in downloaded files. Do I need to change some settings on Internet Explorer?
Does the class need to be downloaded ahead of time? I thought the class was downloaded and run upon html access?
Here's hoping for an easy answer. The website applet feature was one of my reasons for wanting to learn JAVA.
Here's the link that doesn't work. It will provide you with the error message

How to get an Applet running in IE??

Dear All,
Can I know the way to get my applet runs in Internet Explorer?
I heard about Java Plug-In and Java HTML Converter. Pls advise.
I am using JDK1.3.1 and Win98.
Which version of Java Plug-In and HTML Converter should I use?
Thanks,
Daniel

Which Mac OS version is the applet going to run on? Java in Mac OS X will support jre1.3, but earlier versions of the Mac OS only support jre1.1.2. You need to go to www.apple.com and do a search for Java. There you will find all the information about Java on the Mac platform.

Instance of an applet running at server

Hello there,
Is there a way to find the instance of and applet that is running at a remote server.
Client is IE browser.
Thanks

NTushar wrote:
By external I mean that anything other than the Applet being worked on.That doesn't really narrow it down.
It can be another Applet, Frame or maybe just a console application. The main concern is not the application.Well, yes it is. For example, a 1963 Dodge Dart cannot access your applet.
But one thing is certain, whatever the application may be it has no relation with the Applet.Like that Dodge Dart. Sorry, it can't be done.
Therefore there has to be some way by which the Application finds about the Applet, and so I thought what could be better than having a reference to the instance of the Applet.
Summing it up, there is an Applet over the internet and a reference to it has to be found.
Clear Enough.So, you're asking if there is some universal way that anything in the universe can see the applet. The answer is no.
If you narrow the field down a bit, you can make it possible. Here are the three main ways that come to mind:
1) other applets running in the same environment can see the applet
2) if the applet acts as a network server of some sort, other applications (not necessarily Java ones) that have access to that host, could see it. This would require signing the applet, and configuring hardware and software firewalls to allow access, which might be a good idea.
3) The applet could be made to access periodically a server, to update status information and look for commands.

Applet running problem in ie 6.0 under Windows XP

Applet running problem in ie 6.0 under Windows XP
I have a PC running Iternet Explorer 6.0 running under Windows XP. I have developed an applet using JDK 1.3 which is running fine with applet viewer , but it is not running in ie. I have installed Netscape navigator and Opera 5. the applet is running fine in both of these browsers but somehow it is not running in IE.
Later on I upgraded my JDK to 1.4. It also displays use Java2 (V1.4.1) for <applet> (requires restart) tck marked in Advance section under Tools-Options menu of IE.
I have also tried and set various options in my Control Panel�s Java Plug-in but all in vain. I have searched the sites for this solution but no one answers specifically.
I know it�s a small problem due to discarded JVM in IE under Windows XP but give me solution for that.
Thanks in Advance

Applet run in applet viewer but produces error in browser

Dear All,
Rather new in Java developpement, this topic should be peanuts for most of you.
I am using Oracle JDevelopper 11.
I have written a very simple applet which just display a text using the following code:
*public void paint(Graphics g){ g.drawString("I am talking to you !",40,40); }*
The html code calls the applet using the following code:
*<APPLET CODE="project1.Applet1.class" HEIGHT="200" WIDTH="600" ALIGN="bottom">This browser does not support Applets.</APPLET>*
Running the hmtl file in the applet viewer, result is as expected.
But running the html file using the server instance gives an error message which translation to English looks like the following:
Error: click to get more information.
The no java supported text is not displayed.
I have set my browser to the lowest security level in order to check for security matter.
No change.
Browser is IE 8
OS is Windows XP.
Thanks a lot for helping a poor stuck beginner.
Ben

Hi Frank,
Thank you for your help.
I guess something is wrong with Jdeveloper or there is something I don't understand (most likely ;-)).
Please correct me if I am wrong.
The directory structure build by Jdeveloper is the following:
Application name
Project name
classes
project name <<< my class is stored under this folder
public_html
html file calling my applet class
Calling Project1.Applet1 (as given as default when I create a java html file) in the html file give the following error message:
open HTTP connection failed:http://127.0.0.1:7101/Application2-Project1-context-root/Project1/Applet1.class
Calling Applet1 in the html file give the following error message: wrong name for applet Projet/Applet
It does not refer to an http connection problem.
Calling Project1/Applet1 gives the following
HTTP connection failed:http://127.0.0.1:7101/Application2-Project1-context-root/Project1/Applet1.class
So I am really puzzled.
And stucked.
Any hint ?
Ben

JWS opens a Applet Running Window when starting the application

I have an applet that runs perfectly fine when starting it by double clicking the desktop icon of through the Internet Explorer. My problem is that when I start the applet it opens up another window with status bar displaying "Applet Running". Is there any way to stop displying this window.

It sounds like you are launching you applet from Java Web Start application by BasicService.showDocument("http://www.mycompany.com/myapplet.jnlp");
This would of course launch a browser , which would launch another instance of Java Web Start to run the second applet.
If you have all-permissions you could:
Runtime.exec("javaws http://www.mycompany.com/myapplet.jnlp");
to launch javaws directly.
would be nice if web start allowed this with something like BasicService.launchJNLPClient("http://www.mycompany.com/myapplet.jnlp");

UnsupportedAudioFileException when applet runs served by servlet

I have spent the better part of two days sorting through this. I developed an applet, using several examples found here and elsewhere, that will play, pause and stop playing an MP3 file. It is very simple and purposely designed that way. I use Eclipse as my development environment and when I run the applet directly from the IDE it runs fine. When I jar the files, sign the jar and deploy the applet through a servlet I get the following:
javax.sound.sampled.UnsupportedAudioFileException: could not get audio input stream from input URL
     at javax.sound.sampled.AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(Unknown Source)
     at org.myorg.applet.MP3JLayerApplet.playMP3(MP3JLayerApplet.java:158)
     at org.myorg.applet.MP3JLayerApplet$PlayerThread.run(MP3JLayerApplet.java:116)
So I am assuming that there is something in the classpath missing that is causing the heartburn to the applet (running in FF5 in Windows 7). Where do I start unpacking the issue? I have the Java Control Panel Console in trace mode but it doesn't show which classes/jars are being accessed as the applet loads. Is there a way to see each class as it is loaded and where (like the -verbose switch) ?
The segment of code that is running is as follows:
               URL url = null;
               if (classID!=null)
                    try
                         url = new URL(audioURL);
                         System.out.println(url);
                    catch (Exception ex)
                         System.err.println(ex);
          try {
               AudioInputStream in = AudioSystem.getAudioInputStream(url);
The audioURL is a string with the following value:
http://localhost:9080/BSFDocs/lectureFiles/717/lecture.mp3
If the URL is used directly in the browser, the mp3 is downloaded and would play in Media player with no problems.
Again, if the applet is run directly in from Eclipse using the Run as --> Java Applet option, it works perfectly. If run from the servlet it fails.
Suggestions?
Thanks

FYI,
I didn't have to download and install any plug-ins before to have this work. It would work with the Browser's VM but now doesn't seem to.

Where an Applet runs from.... DEBATE

I'm in a debate here and I really don't know the answer (I know, I probably really should). WHERE does an applet run from? I have an applet that resides on my tomcat server. It has roughly 200 helper classes. (well more than that, but kind of close) When I type in the URL for the applet from my client computer, WHERE do the classes run from? Are they loaded to the client computer and run ON THE CLIENT or is it run remotely from the server? I'm not really sure. If it IS run on the browser, WHY is it slow? Not only do I need to get this info, I find it fascinating (and embarrassing that I don't know!).
Lots of thanks for your responses!

Very good point. Sorry about that. =)
I'm drawing a diagram with many components and connections on it. When you move it, it redraws the components. Makes sense. The problem is, I had this SAME function in my desktop application (same application really, just moved to an applet) and it went much smoother. On the applet, when moving the diagram there is a slight delay in the motion so that it is not fluid. I don't know why that would be if the applet runs off the client (like the application) and the diagram and all of its components and methods are the same...

Can a signed applet run classes from disk?

Hi all,
I have a signed applet jar and a signed jar file somewhere on disk (I can ensure the jar file is available on client's machine before i run the applet). My applet doesn't let me have file io access from the classes in the jar file on disk. It gives the following exception:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission C:\test.jar read)
However I do have file io access from classes in the applet jar itself. Both the jar files are signed.
Is there any way to get around the plug-in security in this case?
Using installed extension (jar/lib/ext) is not an option, unfortunately.
Any help will be appreciated.

AccessControlException in Applet

I've been searching the web for some time now to a sollution to my problem, but none of the suggestions I've seen have worked, so here I am. I'm currently taking a Java programming class in which we are programming applets. I've written a perfectly functioning applet that draws ImageIcons made from .jpg and .png files that are located in the same directory as the .java and .class files for my applet. The applet compiles and executes beautifully when run through my java editor (TextPad). The problem comes when I embed the applet in an HTML document (which is also located in the same directory) and try to open the HTML (using IE 6) I get the following error visible in my Sun Java Console:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission selectupleft.png read)
I have tried other applets, and they work fine as long as they do not read any files into ImageIcons. I've seen numerous posts concerning this error and most suggestions involve modifying the .policy file, which I have tried multiple times but to no avail. Also, I need to be able to upload my HTML file and applet .class files onto a server so they can be viewed remotely. When I do this (and also upload the .png files to the same place) and try to view the HTML file, I get the same error as when I try to view it locally.
Basically, my question is: is modifying the .policy file the only way to make this work? How can I do this so that the applet is allowed to read from files that are in the same directory on the server as the applet is? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

For very good security reasons unsigned applets are not permitted to acess files on the client machine. You can't access files but you can access data from the server that delivered the applet.
The best way to cope with icons it to put the icons on the server with the .class files, and then access it as a "resource". Resources are files accessed via the ClassLoader which loads your classes. Resources really are worth getting your head arround. Any file which is like part of the program, properties files, xml configuration files and images are good as resources.
The resource mechanism gets files from wherever it gets the .class files, whether they are in a .jar file, accessed over the net or both.
Here's the code I'm using:
     * Load an image icon from a resource
     * @param name The name of the resource
     * @param alt Alternative and mouseover text for icon
     * @return The ImageIcon for display
    static ImageIcon createImageIcon(String name, String alt) {
        URL url = FgApplet.class.getResource(name + ".png");
        if(url == null)
            throw new IllegalArgumentException("No such image as " + name);
        return new ImageIcon(url, alt);
    }(FgApplet is the name of the class the code is in. In general you could use any class name whose class file is in the same place as the .png file).
