Browser v/s JAVA version

Hi,
How can I know what Java version can handle a Browser?
I mean, for example , A machine with IExplorer 5.0 ,windows 98, without SDK installed, what kind of Applet could run in it?
Is any option, preferences or site where I can find this answer?
thanks.

You can test it with the following applet:import java.awt.Graphics;
public class VersionTest extends java.applet.Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.drawString("Java version: " + System.getProperty("java.version"), 10, 20);
}

How to check Java Version while showing applet in browser?

Hello All,
We have an application which has client and server mechanism.
Our application can be accessed by any internet browser on any machine of the network but there is only one server in the network.
One of the functionality in the application is described below.
We do have one link in our application webpage. When user clicks on that link, the request goes to the server component which is running on different machine. Now server process the request and in responce we do show some images in applet window at the customer webpage.
Now problem is, when the client machine browser has some lower version of Java, we are not able to show the image but only shows a blank page.
What we want to do is to show some specific warning message when we find that the Java version at client machine is lower than required.
Can anybody please let me know how can I achieve this?
Thanks in Advance,
Jenish

Sun's latest versioning solution for applets and JWS apps. is [deployJava.js|http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/deployment_advice.html]. I also offer the [Java Version Checker Applet|http://pscode.org/jre.html] as an alternate way of ensuring a minimum major version of the JRE.

When using Java Wizard with Firefox 3.6.23 on a Mac OS X 10.6.8 it keep getting an error message: "The Java Wizard cannot run. Please configure your browser to allow Java applets to access the filesystem." Have NO idea how to fix this problem.

When trying to upload files I received the following error: "The Java Wizard cannot run. Please configure your browser to allow Java applets to access the filesystem."

If the problem is with a site that is hosted using MOVEit DMZ by Ipswitch, please notify the site owner of the issue and ask them to apply the patch that is available on the support site to resolve the issue.
This is a better resolution than downgrading your version of Java that was updated due to security issues.

Java Version for PI 7.1

Hi all,
Can anyone please tell me what is the exact recommended JRE version for PI 7.1 with enhancement package1.
thanks in advance
Jagruthi

Hi,
I think PI 7.1 works fine with java version 1.5 and 1.6 (not sure..though)
May be what you can check is un-install the existing Java version (old versions if so) and open the Home page of the PI
it will show the version needed (try this) for PI 7.0 it was showing for me which version to download in google chrome browser...

Applet launching browser window in Java 6u10+

Finding a problem that appears to be limited to Java 6u10+. We have an applet which opens multiple JFrame windows, and in some cases, the user might click something in the applet that should trigger the browser to show a popup browser window with some web page. That part all works fine, and the browser popup shows in the front as it should in older java versions.
However, it appears that since 6u10, now that the applet process is separate from the browser, the popup window no longer can be brought to the front of the applets. It is being launched and brought to front with Javascript, but that only brings it in front of other browser windows, no longer in front of the applet. And the only thing I can find to resolve this is to minimize/iconify the applet windows, and that's not ideal to hide all windows.
Is there anyone else seeing this? Has anyone found any fix or work around for this (without minimizing all the applet windows)?
thanks

in Java 6u10 it works?
I guess it's similar. My applet calls showDocument(), but it is only passing a URL with query string parameters which the page called reads (via Javascript) and uses JS to call window.open() with the contents based on those parameters. I don't have access to the system to change the way the web works. The team that does has looked into it, and said they do make the tofront call in JS to push the browser window up. But it won't go up all the way, only above other browser windows, and not the applet window (which is a JFrame). Then the OS (windows in this case) starts blinking the taskbar button for the popup window for attention, but that's not helpful.
The only common factor in the reports were that it's Java 6u10 or higher. XP, Vista, FF, IE, all had the problem with 6u10+. And knowing how Sun changed the plug-in architecture, it actually makes some sense as to why this happens. However, this seems to be something that there is no way to fix short of Sun doing something. Or as mentioned, minimize my window just to let others show up, which is going to be annoying as a user to have to restore the window to go back.

JAAS & JGSSAPI 's Java version

Hi,
JAAS version info: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/security/jaas/JAASRefGuide.html
i would like to know in which Java version is JGSSAPI written?
and if there a SPNEGO authentication API to validate the service ticket that was aquired with a browser in older version like Java2 ?
Thanks

hi wangwj,
thanks for ur reply. I'm intended to use SPNEGO for a browser authentification against Kerberos to access a webapp by SSO that was written in Java 1.4 and should stay. Is there a possibility to unpack the service ticket that was gotten with SPNEGO with Java 1.4 ?
This link says JGSSAPI exists since Java 5: http://dev.taglab.com/sites/taglab-public/support/spnego.html
Can u tell me then where to find info about the existing of it before that?
I need it because i'm writing a work about it and must give authenticated sources for my Info.
Many Thanks

Java versions for OIM install

Hi,
Last time when I installed OIM, everything worked fine, but I was unable to open the workflow manager applet. I think maybe I used the wrong JRE/JDK. Please read below the environment I am using and suggest which Jave version should be used.
OS: Windows 2003 Server
Browser: IE
OIM: 9.1
Application Server: Weblogic (latest version)
1. Installing Oracle Weblogic, which JRE to use?
a> 1.6 Sun Java already shipped with Weblogic
b> 1.6 Oracle JRockit shipped with Weblogic
c> any other Java version
2. Installing OIM Server, in the screen where it asks for Application server information, in the field where it asks the JDK used for application server install, which one to use?
a> The one I choose above in 1
b> any other Java version (1.4.2_12 or _15 or something else)
3. Installing OIM client, when it asks for JRE to use with design console, which Java to use?
a> Install JRE bundled with OIM
b> JDK 1.4.2_12 or _15 or any other Java version
4. Now, when I use the OIM, what should be the Java version that my browser should be configured to launch the Workflow Manager applet?
Thanks in advance.
-Harmeet

The release notes for your oim version contains information about what JRE versions are supported.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/files/idm_certification_101401.html#BABGBGHI
Sun JDK 1.6.0_10 or higher JRockit 1.6.0_05 or higher seems to be what you are looking for.
Best regards

After downloadeding the latest Java plugin, I start to receive "Please configure your browser to allow Java applets to access the filesystem" message when I try to run a download wizard. What do I need to do? BTW, IE does not have this problem.

I had no problem using a download wizard Java applet to download file to my computer from an SFTP site using Firefox. When I tried to do the same thing with Chrome, I was told to download the latest plugin. Once I did that, I receive the following message when I run the downlaod wizard:
The Java Wizard cannot run.
Please configure your browser to allow Java applets to access the filesystem.
I got the same message using Firefox and Chrome. However, I have no problem using IE to run the same download wizzard. Please help.

If the problem is with a site that is hosted using MOVEit DMZ by Ipswitch, please notify the site owner of the issue and ask them to apply the patch that is available on the support site to resolve the issue.

Ensuring the Correct Java Version is Installed

I recently finished some work where I rewrote an applet. The applet used to require only Java 1.1; however, because I used Swing instead of the AWT, Java 2 is required to run now. It will run under 1.4.2, but I am afraid that some customers might need to upgrade their Java installation. I found some articles on how to auto-install/update the JRE when launching JNLP applications. However, I would like to keep the applet in the browser, so using Web Start is not ideal.
Is there a way to check the version of java installed on a user's computer, and if it is not high enough, automatically download and install it?
If that isn't possible, is there a way to simply redirect them to the download page?
Thanks for the help. I am quite lost in all of this.

Is there a way to check the version of java installed

getAppletContext().showDocument(new URL("http://SomeWhere.com"));Good Luck!

Unable to install Java Version 7

I currently have Java Version 6 loaded. I downloaded the latest version of Java Version 7. It was a pkg installer. When I ran it it said I couldn't install it because I didn't download it from the Apple Store. Also there is no Java panel in the System Preferences like in Moultanl Lion. It looks like any Package Installer wont run unless it came from the Apple Store

Glad to help. But seriously, since Java is a known and popular vector for cyberattack, I'd suggest leaving it disabled in your browser(s) unless it's necessary for a valid reason. Also, having allowed apps from anywhere, I'd suggest switching back to the earlier, more secure setting until another such need arises to avoid a questionable app slipping in under the wire.

Get Java Version from Applet to JSP

Hi Forum!
I am trying to collect client information with a jsp page and put the information into a html form.
Besides the request information and some javascript screensize and flash version information I'd like to get the client's Java Version and Vendor with System.getProperty("java.version").
I assume I can get this info only with an applet.
How do I pass the Applet's version result to the JSP so I can view it with HTML and insert it into the form?
Thanks a lot,
Tom

You would use liveconnect and the JSObject class to connect the Java code in the applet to JavaScript in the browser to populate the HTML:

Problemi con java Version 7 Update 17!!!!!!

Ho scaricato la versione
Version 7 update 17
ma sia safari che altri browser non funzionano
L'applicazione caricamento file drag-and-drop richiede il plugin Java versione 1.5 o superiore per il vostro browser.
Cliccare quiper installare il plugin Java e attivarlo sul proprio browser.
scarico istallo ma sempre lo stesso problema
Mi aiutate!!!!!!!!
Grazie

E perché mai connessione ad un'unità di rete dovrebbe richiedere Java.
Immagino tu non ti riferisca alla connessione tramite il Finder, ma piuttosto attraverso una qualche procedura che utilizza il browser Safari visto che lo hai citato nel messaggio originale.
Se è questo il caso, verifica dal menu Safari, Preferenze, Sicurezza, Contenuti web: che la casella Java sia abilitata.
Se non funziona nemmeno così, potrebbe essere la versione di Java che non va bene. Tu hai installato l'ultima versione Java di Oracle 1.7.17.
C'è anche la versione Java di Apple scaricabile da qui Java for OS X 2013-002.
Dovresti però disinstallare quella di Oracle.

HT1338 download Java version 10.6.8 and above

Hello
I have a MAC Pro (OZ X 10.6.8). My netbank "log in" service requires the newest version of Java.
Have tryed to download Java 6 again - Have also tryed to download the "7 version", but my Mac dosent accept that (think it was Lion version?).
My netbank is; SR bank, Norway. There is a link on their homepage - but, that dosent help me anything.
I have also checked under
JAVA SE 6 IS THERE, both 64 bit and 32 bit. It is also hooked of (activiate...). THe version I got is: 1.6.0_37-bo6-434 (both).If I am not wrong that is the version my bank requires.
What am bit unsure/conserneded about is if i have the Java version installed (even if I found "Java choice" under programs.
Can you please help me. This has never been a problem before...(it started when Java had a lot of problem)
Kind regards Annie
([email protected])

To see if Java is installed (that is, if you haven't disabled it in Java Preferences.app) enter into Terminal in Utilities and hit return.
java -version
If you use Safari, Apple has disabled Java 6 from there. Probably also Firefox and Chrome.
