Bad http.agent in Java properties : a bug in the HTTP user-agent string?
Hi all,
Me :
I'm patching AWSTATS (web log analyzer tool) in order to recognize which Java version has
been used to download files.
Context of the problem :
Each time a Java program (or applet) is downloading a file (for example .class, .png, .html)
from a web server, a line will be added in the web server log file. If the web server is well
configured, the user agent used to download the file will be at the end of the line in the log file.
For Sun Java JVM, the user agent string is configured in the Java properties under "http.agent".
Usually, the user-agent string contains the word "Java" and the virtual machine version. In most
cases, this is just a string like "Java/1.4.2", so this is relatively easy to parse.
Problem :
Looking in my web server stats, and then on the web, I found that a JVM's user-agent is
"Mozilla/4.0 (Windows XP 5.1)", which obviously does not contains the word "Java".
Consequently, it is difficult to say that this user-agent string belongs to a JVM.
Further look in my log files and on google shows that this http.agent string appears
on Microsoft Internet Explorer (it seems MSIE 6.0) over Windows XP with the J2RE plugin:
http://board.gulli.com/thread/300321
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?thread=531295&forum=30&message=2559523
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=63&thread=132769&start=210&range=15&tstart=0&trange=15
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=32&thread=480899
http://www.goodidea.ru/setupJava/javaInstall.htm
The J2RE plugin version does not seems to play a role as this user-agent string has
been seen on 1.4.1_02-b06, 1.4.2_01, 1.4.2_03 and 1.4.2_04-b05.
Further information requested :
I would like to know:
1) if you have reported the same problem;
2) if there is some rules for the http.agent property;
3) if this is a bug.
Thank you very much, and feel free to add you opinion.
Julien
The web log files where the "Mozilla/4.0 (Windows XP 5.1)" user-agent appears can be displayed using the following search terms on google :
"Mozilla/4.0 (Windows XP 5.1)" -"(Windows XP 5.1) Java"
http://www.google.ch/search?hl=fr&ie=UTF-8&q=%22Mozilla%2F4.0+%28Windows+XP+5.1%29%22+-%22%28Windows+XP+5.1%29+Java%22&btnG=Rechercher&meta=

Is the Java "Zero-Day" bug dangerous for MountainLion users?
Is the Java "Zero-Day" bug dangerous for MountainLion users?
It is not yet dangerous, to my knowledge, as it is currently being used only to distribute Windows malware. But users of Java 7 are certainly vulnerable, should a hacker start distributing Mac malware through this vulnerability.

I want to roll back to an earlier version Firefox that works with Java Script how can I do this. Where I can download an earlier version? You know what the problems are. I am NOT going to list them. Own up to your errors. You made an incorrect conscious decision to break with Java compatibility.
Mozilla is not lying about average users, but it shows contempt for experienced users, or those that want to be able to get the more out of their browser, or use it for work or school.
Java and JavaScript are not the same thing. I trust you are referring to JavaScript problems and a lot of collateral damage associated with the mess.
# Prohibition on Webpages being able to resize or move windows with JavaScript
# Prohibition on Users being able to move or resize windows with JavaScript
# Ignoring the fact that there were already user controls in Tools > Options > Content > Javascript > Advanced
# Making JavaScript inoperable from Location bar as a command, or in a keyword shortcut that involves moving resizing windows
# Destroying use of AwesomeBar search, Bookmark searching for bookmarks containing JavaScript, making internal searches very unreliable
Firefox 8 comes out November the 8th and it nor later versions show any reversal of this mess.
Firefox 3.6.* should remain safe to use for some time, as corporate users will not put up with nonsense when they support thousands of users.
For those that really need an older version of Firefox [ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases releases] (all releases, including 4.0.1 and 5.0) or with the latest of [http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html Firefox 3]. Mac OSX 10.4 users can't upgrade to 4.0.1
When you reinstall a different version, at the end of the install, don't let the install start Firefox for you, rather exit, and then start Firefox in the normal manner to avoid inadvertently creating and using a new profile without your bookmarks, etc.
What would be better would be to use multiple versions / profiles at the same time, which is certainly beyond average users, particularly when Mozilla has historically and purposely made such things difficult. But if interested see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Using_multiple_profiles_-_Firefox Using multiple profiles - Firefox - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] -

Hello Colleagues,
after configuration to HTTPS on AS Java 7.0 Server we have to disable all HTTP connectivity now.
I found different discussion to that issue but I am still not sure what are the right way.
Please help to clarify this point to me.
Many thanks in advance!
Regards,
JochenHi Jochen,
In order to disable the HTTP access to your Java AS. You will have to login to Visual Administrator, and then under Service, go to the HTTP Provider details. You will find a value specifying both http and https values (if already configured). You can remove the http part, which will allow you to remove the http access.
Regards,

Hi ,
I am using trying to write data to a java properties file , by using the setProperty method and somehow the order of the data is not by the order of inserting it ,Is there a way to use the setProperty method and still keep the order of data in the file after storing it.
Thanks.Eddie404 wrote:

If it does, you aren't doing something right.
If the order matters, that suggests that somebody is responsible for maintaining the properties via a text editor, or something like that. In which case you shouldn't be using a Properties object which modifies the property file. But as soon as you start having two different processes to maintain the file, you're going to run into trouble. So simplify your life and stop doing that. Either maintain it through the program, or through the text editor, but not both ways. -

Please help, its urgent.i have followed line to line as per post installation tasks given in sun site. No logs are generated in policy agent. i.e
bcoz policy agent is not at all intercepting the request. do we need to do any thing more to add a filter in websphere 6.1
To give you background:
This is a clustered enviornment and each node has 3 instances [ appserver,nodeagent, websphere_portal]
we have installed the policy agent on each of the instances.
Now when i access the admin interface my policy agent intercept redirect to SSO.
When i access portal instance policy agent doesnt intercept
there are no logs generated in accessmanager or policagent.

Verify if website use user agent information
i want to connect to a website, using different browser but i think this website use user agent information because when using blackberry browser ; the website close the connection /Session after i have been log.
So i want to use the user agent switcher plug in that could be use with mozilla firefox but i don't know which values i have to use to make mozilla behave like a blackberry browser even if i go to some website that show my browser setting ( http://www.spyber.com/ )
mozilla plug ask thoses values
Description ,User Agent:, App Name, App Version, Platform, vendor , Vendor Sub :
spyber show this parameters:
Your user agent, Your Browser, Screen information, Screen resolution,Color depth, Javascript check
As i see i can not customize /change colorDepth and screen resolution in mozilla plug in so change user agent could not be efficient if the website ask for this value .
so
1) is there a way to use PC browser and change all meta data that a browser send to the webserver ?
2) where i could find all the value for a my blackberry device ?
thank's for any helps@michel45

How to get iphones / ipad user agent for internet access
Hi.
We recently setup some wireless, and I'm wondering how I can get iphones and ipads connected to the internet without prompting for a username and password. Even if it does prompt and we put in our domain credentials, things don't work.. it's like it heavily restricts access. However if you put DOMAINNAME\ in front of your user name, then it seems to work.
Without making static IP reservations and attaching those ip's to no authentication in IronPort... isn't there a way to assign these devices to a policy via their user agent string? Problem is finding that string amongst different versions of iphones and ipads.
I visited www.ipchicken.com on my iphone and it said Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; U; CPU iPhone OS 4_3_2 like Mac OS X; en-us)
AppleWebKit/533.17.9 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0.2 Mobile/8H7 Safari/6533.18.5
What part of this do I copy into the user agents field for my no autnentication identity that I'm trying to alter? I tried putting AppleWebKit in, but it still blocks almost everything.
Right now in this Allowed User Agents identiy i have Windows Update checked, as well as these:
(MSOffice\x2014)
Microsoft NCSI
SSLSoapClient
AppleWebKit (does not seem to work)
Thanks for the help!I think I figured it out. Followed this closely:
https://ironport.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/ironport.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=1426&p_sid=ODIeCGuk&p_lva=1713&p_li=cF91c2VyaWQ9MXJvblAwcnQmcF9wYXNzd2Q9Zm8wQmE1
Also do you guys know if the custom user agent field can accept wildcards? Problem is, every version of iOS for iPhone 1, 3G, 3GS, 4, and iPad 1 & 2, or ipod touch (various generations) all have variations in their user strings. If I could just do a blanket statement for like *iphone* , *ipad*, etc.... that would be easier.
So are there any wildcards or txt masks that can be put in and interpreted in the custom user agents field? -
Getting User-Agent through J2ME Client
Hi, i think most of the developers here might have come across this problem.
I have a servlet that will get the client's User-Agent headers value when the client access it. When i access the servlet through a phone browser, the header will give me the phone's user agent. But when i access the same servlet through my J2ME client, the header will return a value of 'UNTRUSTED/1.0' string which doesn't contain any user agent info.
I understand that in JSR implementation the 'UNTRUSTED' string will be appended to the User Agent header, but the original user agent value is not there. Does anyone knows what is the reason behind this?
Thanx.
FooShynfirst:
- do not multipost the same message
second:
- did you put headers on your connection in your application?
- and the only useragent that you can get is the useragent defined in the app...
for example:
try {
c = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url);
c.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.GET);
c.setRequestProperty("IF-Modified-Since", "10 Nov 2000 17:29:12 GMT");
c.setRequestProperty("User-Agent","Profile/MIDP-1.0 Confirguration/CLDC-1.0");
c.setRequestProperty("Content-Language", "en-CA");
os = c.openOutputStream();

Safari 5.0 changes user agent to become mobile device agent on G5 10.5.8
Safari 5.0 changes the default user agent on my two G5 Dual running on 10.5.8 deeply in the system , affecting ALL browsers in such a way that I can't access my CMS and my organization's website properly anymore. Each and every time it loads as 'default' user agent, but the 'default' user agent is now set to be some kind of mobile device.
I can check this since my organization has a script which detects which device you are accessing the site with and changes the layout accordingly. By setting the user agent to 'Safari 5.0' in Safari the page loads OK.
Worse is the fact that CMS works only with Firefox, and it's 'default' user agent is now also some kind of mobile device on my 2 different G5 Duals. This means that I can't access the CMS properly without manually go in and change the url. Doing a preview of a page in the CMS renders an error which can only be simulated by setting the user agent to 'default', both in Safari[5.0] and FF [3.6.3].
What happened here Apple?
