Homemade applets wont run in explorer :(

Hi :)
I've just started out with Java, and I follow the great tutorial on Sun's Java-page.
I've followed two applet examples. First the "Hello world" and then "ClickMe" where you click in a box and move a red dot around when you click.
I copy the original files from the tutorial and compile them, so not much I can possibly do wrong there.
When I'm running Appletviewer it all works fine, both hello world and click me, but when I try to create a html-file to run the applets I only get the active applet-area grey and nothing happens.
Hello world gives a gray text-row that is just grey and nothing more, and the ClickMe gives me a large grey rectangle and nothing happens.
Here is the link to the ClickMe example:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/java/concepts/practical.html
I do as it says, make a html like this:
<applet code="ClickMe.class"
width="300" height="150">
</applet>
Can someone explain why I cant create html-files (just as the tutorial says) and run the applets?
The ClickMe runs great on their homepage, so its not like my explorer cant handle applets I guess.....what could possibly be wrong?
Please please, this is no fun, I've just started out and this happens....and no answers anywhere :(
Thanks for any help :)

Thanks for the feedback :)
Have no idea what that means, but I tried it and here
comes the result :(
c:\Java-program>javac -target1.1 ClickMe.java
javac: invalid flag: -target1.1Sorry, there should be a space "-target 1.1"
It means you are attempting to compile the applet with the older 1.1XX JVM, so it should be compatable with the older Microsoft IntEx JRE

SDK Wont Run Applets

After some tinkering, I have discovered that the problem is not in my program, but in my SDK or my understanding of it. I made a simple "hello world" applet and could not run it after successfully compiling:
[mbondr@localhost tinker]$ cat Tinker.java
package tinker;
import java.awt.*;
import java.applet.*;
public class Tinker extends Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.drawString("Yadda Yadda", 20, 20);
[mbondr@localhost tinker]$ javac *.java
[mbondr@localhost tinker]$ appletviewer -debug Tinker.class
Initializing jdb ...
runrun sun.applet.Main Tinker.class
Set uncaught java.lang.Throwable
Set deferred uncaught java.lang.Throwable
>
VM Started:
The application exited
[mbondr@localhost tinker]$
I can't get any applets to run. Is it me? Is it my setup? Should I wipe my hard drive and start over?

Hi,
The appletviewer expects an URL not a class so you will need to create a simple HTML page with applet/object/embed tags that point to your applet and give the name of the HTML file as the argument to appletviewer.

Java wont run at all on safari.

Hello there,
I have an issue, on my home computer java runs seamlessly in safari for windows, but here at my office, it just wont run, i downloaded the Sun JRE and installed with Admin priveleges, althought Safari 4 Win includes Apple JRE anyways, it is enabled in my preferences, but whenever i try to use the file manager in Webmin, or any other java applet on the web it just says "Java is Unavailable (SITE) tried to load java content but java is not installed or unavailable, would you like go to a page where you can download java?" and I did it again thinking maybe it required an earlier version, but still nothing. any help anyone can offer me i would be greatly appreciated
Cheers,
P.S. Im running WXP Pro, and JREs 6u1, 6u17

Hi,
I wasn't sure if this thread had already been closed or not, but if its still open, I'd like to chime in with some comments of my own, as well.
I too have been experiencing very similar issues with my edition of Safari for Windows. I am running Windows Vista Basic, and my version of Safari is 4.0.4.
I followed the instructions you gave to the person who started this thread, and after restarting Safari, I am still receiving the same error I was receiving before. Here is what the error says:
_+*"Pogo.com games use the Java plug-in. You either do not have Java installed or you have a version that is incompatible with our games. It does not cost you anything to install Java.*+_
_+*Do you want to install the Java plug-in now?"*+_
Well, I know for a fact that I have Java installed on this machine, and it has been enabled for use with Safari.
Here is the version of Java which I have presently installed on my machine. Aside from v. 17, I also have versions 1-7, which all show enabled as well.
Name Java Plug-in 1.6.0_17
Publisher Sun Microsystems, Inc.
Status Enabled
File date Sunday, October 11, 2009, 4:17 AM
Version 1.6.0.17
I have attempted (more times than I can remember) uninstalling and then re-installing Java on this machine, and I am still receiving this same error.
Can you please help?
Thanks!

I can't get applets to run - I messed up machine

This is not a programming question, just an "I want to see an applet" question.
2 months ago, I downloaded the JDK 1.3.1_02 because I was/am taking a programming class. I set the path variable to the BIN. I then had 2 runtime environments 1.3.1 and 1.3.1_02 and everything was fine. Last week, however, applets wouldn't load or would load only after a very long delay (not necessarily my applets, just applets when we surfed the net). I twice received errors that my "client was corrupted."
I have a Windows ME machine. I removed the 1.3.1 runtime environment (pre-installed on machine), thinking that, well... I was just thinking stupid thoughts. I now only have the 1.3.1_02 environment. NOW, no applets will run.
I'm guessing I need to point something to 1.3.1_02, but don't know what that would be. I checked IE options and it thinks it's looking to 1.3.1_02. I looked at the advanced tab of the Java plug-in and it's set to default. I changed it to 1.3.1_02 and that had no effect, so I returned it to default. I have the latest version of VM.
Should I reinstall Java and the runtime environment?
Thanks in advance Janie

Hi,
I've also encountered a problem in running applets and what I did are the following:
- Try reinstalling your Java and then restart your machine.
- After that, Go to Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Java Plug-in 1.3.1_02 to open the Java
Console Window.
- On the Browser tab, uncheck the "Microsoft Internet Explorer" and click OK.
- Try to open a new browser and open pages with applets and see if this works.
Hope this can help.

Need help getting my applet to run..

Hi, I am having the utmost trouble getting my applet to run. First I spent a month correcting syntax and other errors generated during compile. Now I find myself spending another month getting the compiled product to run. I don't care if the screen is completely blank and my logic is all messed up, I don't mind logic debugging. My applet just will not run at all, it won't even initialize.
First when I tried to run my applet in Internet Explorer I got the following error in the statusbar:
"load: tsorgi5 can't be instantiated"
So, I researched that error message, and the solution appeared to be that I would need to use the Java Plug-In. So, I use that and now I find this message in the statusbar:
"exception: null."
That happens when the text "Loading Java Applet ..." is in the centre of the applet, and Internet Explorer acts like it is still doing something no matter how long I wait.
I tried researching this, but only found "exception: null" with other things after the text "null."
In Forte, when I choose "Execute" I get the following in the Output Window, I/O tab:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main
Exception in thread "main"
I would assume it expects me to add a method "main()," but I also get that same message with a different applet (which doesn't have a method "main()") which runs perfectly fine.
I usually try to solve many of my problems myself, but with this one I have no idea where to start looking for answers. I'm relatively new to Java, been using Java for only half a year, so this particular problem is like looking for a four-leaf clover in the streets of New York City..
I'm going to be chopping my applet into pieces, having a separate class file for each major engine. (It is a role-playing game, so I'll separate battle engine from cut-scene engine from world exploration engine etc..) Hopefully I will be able to narrow down my search for what is causing me all of these problems. Then once I solve my problems I can piece everything back together.
In the meantime, I am hoping that some of you could help me out so that I may know what I am looking for.
Thank You for your time,
-Tony Slater

Ah.. Forte is still a bit confusing to me, I have not and probably will not take the time to learn much about Forte, as the only real reason I use it is because unlike wordpad, I can see line numbers. =] Very helpful with my program being the size that it is.
I do not think that the simple applet idea will be of much use, because one of my earlier applet projects (a main menu for my current project) which I mentioned above as another applet without a main() method which worked perfectly fine is very simple. Although I will try it anyway, as it could help and you are most likely much more experienced than I. =]
Okay, I typed the following in the Dos Prompt:
appletviewer TestApplet.class
..It printed a blank line, paused a little bit, then brought me back to the prompt, just like running a dos program that does not give any output. I'm not sure, but I would assume it should print a line containing the text "Here?" I have not used appletviewer before, so I do not know what it is supposed to do. =P
I have already tried using System.out.println, but the problem occours even before the applet is started. I'll try enabling the Java Console first thing tomorrow morning, since a restart is required when enabling it.
Now, I would be happy to post some code, but I'm not sure it would be best to post the code when my program is 2814 lines.. although 800 lines are probably comments, and most of those comments are probably irrelevant. Also I can sometimes be a messy coder. Although I can post some general information and can probably (with a little work) post an "outline" of the code.
Since it is getting late I'll just post some portions of code which hopefully will prove important.

arrays are filled in the init() method.
public String getIniStrValue(String iniFile, String iniGroup, String iniItem) // Used for retrieving information from the game's external file system.
another method getIniIntValue(int, String, String, String) is used for int values stored in external files.
Within public void paint(), gameplay modes are detected and dealt with accordingly. With Cut-Scenes, proper charecter images and text is displayed, all cut-scene information is stored externally. Other modes do virtually the same, display graphics and text based on internal game data or un-changing external data files.
Within public void mouseClick(), in certain modes of the game the mouse click will trigger a change no matter where the user clicked (such as cut-scenes, to advance to the next line of dialog), or different variables are set depending on where the user clicked. (What I like to call.. custom buttons) At the end of the method repaint(); is used, and the paint() method will alter the screen according to any changes that may have happened.
public void charAttack() is a method called to handle battle equations when a playable and controllable charecter is making a move. It will detect the current charecter, detect the move being made by the charecter (attack, special move, magic, etc) and will change any variables accordingly and will then use repaint(); so that the player may know what has happened. (Whether or not attack was successful, how many HP the enemy lost, etc)
public void loadBattle() is called when the charecter encounters an enemy. It will load possible enemies of the current part of the world being explored, select one, then load that enemy's "stats" from external game data files, and will then specify the new mode (Battle Menu, where the player chooses the moves to be made for the turn) by setting the int value "Mode." repaint(); is then called and it will paint the battle menu.
public boolean keyDown() is of course used to detect keyboard events. In world exploration, the charecter will be moved accordingly. In modes such as cut-scenes, a variable will be changed to advance to the next line of speech. In menus, the keyboard events are used to switch between options. repaint(); is used to update the screen accordingly.
Well, even though I very briefly summarized the code, it appears to have taken half an hour to do. I'll be getting some sleep in a few minutes, and when I wake up tomorrow morning I hope to both see and make some progress on solving this problem.
Thank You,
-Tony Slater.

Plugin 1.3.1 sometimes runs under explorer.exe rather than iexplore.exe

Mates,
I've written a large application that can also run as a signed applet using the 1.3.1 plugin. It runs beautifully and I'm very happy with the plugin technology. However, I've noticed that for certain users the plugin runs under the shell executable, explorer.exe, instead of the browser executable, iexplore.exe, even though it's started from the browser. When the applet/application is exited, it calls System.exit(0) (not ideal, I know) thereby shutting down the JVM, the plugin, and the executable the plugin is running under. No doubt you can imagine the shock on a user's face when closing my applet caused the shell to crash! This, of course, is happening because Microsoft tried to blur the lines between the browser and the desktop early in the browser wars. I can't figure out how to turn it off!
Can any of you help with this problem. If you'd like to test it, just run a small applet through explorer.exe by right-clicking on "My Computer", Open, navigate to the applet, etc. It helps if you have qslice from the resource kit open so you can see the threads opening under explorer.exe (or iexplore.exe if you try it from a browser). My system specifics are Windows 2000 sp1 with IE 5.
Thanks,
Ziad

Hi Ziad,
Just wondering if you ever found a solution to this problem?
I am experiencing a similar situation where browser windows are controlled by the same Explorer.exe process (not IExplore.exe) on certain machines. This means that when the browser windows are closed and reopened, the JVM is not reset. Because the machines are up for long periods of time, the JVM eventually runs out of memory and crashes.
I am trying to find a way of forcing browser windows to be spawned in separate IExplore.exe processes (instead of running under Explorer.exe).
Help Appreciated,
Mark

With icloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from camera roll. I run an older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. Can I transfer pics from i stream to camera roll to allow a non-icloud back up to my PPC? Precious photos are close to 30 day cut-off

With i cloud set up on my 4GS I deleted photos from Camera Roll to make space knowing I would have them backed up on icloud via Photo Stream. I now find that my older PPC G5 with Lion which wont run icloud. I have an ipad3 too, which of course does. I want to copy photos from Photo Stream back to Camera Roll on the phone so that I can back up "old school" to iphoto on my ancient mac. The controls seem to suggest that as an option but when I select multiple photos in Photo Stream and select "Save to Camera Roll" the photos do not appear on Camera Roll as expected. I am running close to the 30 day limit and do not want to lose hundreds of precious photos (or have to email them to myself individually). Can the ipad3 help at all? Any ideas good people? Dan

If only it were that easy Winston. I connect with a USB cable, iphoto opens and I can only see the photos in Camera Roll, not Photo Stream. There does not seem to be a way of aceessing other files in the phone from iphoto and, as in my initial message, I can not transfer the photos to Camera Roll on the phone. My iphone and ipad software is up to date, but my iphoto is '08 version 7.1.5 with my mac running 10.5.8 which is the best I can do on the PPC without messing everything up. I dont have the dough for a new mac or I would have gone for that option...am I stuck?

Before we go off the deep edge here, perhaps some clarification.
What is the brand/model/settings for the Canon camera that you are using?
I think that Hunt may be being jumping ahead here. Let me explain....
For example, the Canon SX1 lS generates files with the file name starting with MVI_XXXX.mov. These are AVCHD.mov files 1920 x 1080p30 and have no problems in Premiere Elements 12.
So, I would ask "In your case, is your MVI the file extension or the beginning of the file name?"
Thanks.

Oracle 8.1.7 on RH7.0 Installed fine now wont run at all!

I was able to install Oracle 8.1.7 on RH 7.0 using this fix... http://ftp.valinux.com/pub/support/hjl/glibc/sdk/2.1/README.Oracle8i
The database initialized correctly and I was able to setup and connect to the database. I even ran a port scanner and checked memmory...the thing was running! Then after the reboot the database wont run at all. When I type ./oracle it trys to load and then shows "Segmentation fault (core dumped)". When I try ./oracle start nothing is echoed. I tried to copy the lib files
ld-linux.so.2
libc-2.1.3.so
libdl.so
libpthread.so
to the $ORACLE_HOME/lib/ dir and followed John Smiley's howto but the relink script doesn't work! Even still I think something else is wrong other than the library. Can someone help?

Nevermind figured it out:) Like duh, I should read the damn Installation file:?

HT201210 I disconnected my iPhone in the middle of an iTunes update. Now it wont run properly what do I do?

I disconnected my iPhone in the middle of an iTunes update. Now it wont run properly what do I do? I was working online and I recieved a pop up from iTunes stating that there was an harwared update for my iPhone. I had it plugged up for a while , long enoung for me to watch a tv show have dinner and come back. I thought the update was complete and came back to the computer and unplugged it. The next morning I saw a picture of aUSB cord and the iTunes icon. I have no use of my phone and cannot get access to emails, internet contacts..nothing . Help !

Well it should NEVER be unplugged when doing something.
It actually had not installed the software at that stage, it had been copied over to the iPhone, it was being checked and then it would be installed.
You need to connect your iPhone to the computer at home and hope that you can install the software again and then restore your backup.
If you install iTunes at work you may be able to Restore the software but you will most likely lose the content on your iPhone as you do not have a backup to restore on that computer, or all your media / apps.

ITunes wont run after update today says missing file msvcr80.dll
