Java webstart after java 2012 006

Hi,
I updated last week my OSX Mountain Lion with the java for 2012-006 which disables the java web start and plugins.
I need however both web start (for starting .jnlp files) and plugins (vpn access).
Was able to restore some stuff from timemachine, currently my system is showing having java 1.6.0_37, my java preferences are showing Java Web start enabled (also the /Users/$USER/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.java.JavaPreferences.${MAC_UU ID}.plist shows this), but starting a .jnlp file,  asks me every time to enable Web Start Applications and the launch fails.
Using java7 doesn't solve my problem either, the application itself does not run yep in an java7 environment.
Ramón
java version "1.6.0_37"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_37-b06-434-11M3909)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.12-b01-434, mixed mode)

Did find the fix myself, besides the restore from timemachine, the correct definition of de symbolic link to /usr/bin/javaws was the fix.
The complete solution:
Restore from timemachine 
    /System/Library/Java/Support/CoreDeploy.bundle
and /Applications/Utilities/Java Preferences.app
/usr/bin$ ls -l javaws
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  76 Oct 18 12:23 javaws -> /System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/Current/Commands/javaws
/usr/bin$ sudo ls -l javaws >~/javaws.oldlink
Password:
/usr/bin$ sudo rm javaws
/usr/bin$ sudo ln -s /System/Library/Java/Support/Deploy.bundle/Contents/MacOS/javaws javaws

  • Java problem after update 2012-006

    Hi,
    Today was update 2012-006 concerning java. It deinstalls java 6 from your mac. If you want java, you get it from java.com. This is a java 7 version.
    but help: I want to go back!
    there are some web-apps that do not work with this new java-version. Downgrading is not possible, becauase java 6 is only available through mac update itself. And if I want to install this again, it says that a newer version is already installed.
    can anybody hellp me out?

    Today was update 2012-006 concerning java. It deinstalls java 6 from your mac.
    That is not actually correct, according to Apple's documentation of Java for OS X 2012-006:
    https://support.apple.com/kb/HT5549
    It should update Java to 1.6.0_37, which is still Java 6. (Java 7 is 1.7.x.) However, Apple has changed the way Java works. The system now disabled Java by default, and if you turn Java back on, the system will disable it again if you don't use it for a certain period of time. It's also possible that the system will disable Java every time there's an update. (I'm not sure about that, as I don't have Java installed myself, for security reasons.)
    For more information about this, including how to re-enable Java, see Using Java in Mac OS X. You should note, though, that enabling Java in your web browser has become a very risky proposition... Java has more holes in it than Swiss cheese!

  • How do I clear Apple's java 6 cache after the 2012-006 update?

    Due to some applets that I have to use at work being incompatible with Oracle's Java 7, I have had to re-enable Apple's Java 6 plugin by following the directions here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5559
    Java 6 does work for me  in all of the browsers on the system. However, I am having some issues with an applet and I suspect that the culprit might be in data left in the cache. Since Java Preferences was removed from Applications -> Utilities, how do I go about removing the cache? I have found /Users/<username>/Library/Caches/Java, but removing this directory didn't solve the issue. Since I don't know if this is really the location that Apple's Java 6 stores its cache, I don't know if removing that directory does anything for clearing the cache.
    What is the official way to remove Apple's Java cache now that Apple's Java Preferences is gone? Thanks for any and all help!

    Download and install the Java for OS X Lion Update 1 which should reinstall the Java Preferences app.
    I have no clue what Apple's position is on clearing caches.

  • Java for OS X 2012-006 Problem Failed Installation

    Hi, I have this problem with my Java for OS X 2012-006. I wanted to use a Java using application, but tells me to install a new version of Java (2012-006).
    Startup runs fine but then says that the Installation Failed.
    I tried this multiple times then gave up. I searched Google and it led me to:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5493
    I downloaded it, Mounted the DMG and ran the .pkg
    I agree to everything and then ran Install. Then the error "The Installation Failed" with a warning sign comes up, telling me to contact the software manufacturer.
    So i go on to the Java website, Searched up Installation Fail "Java" and then told me to Uninstall and then Re-Install.
    For Uninstalling, the files were not there. So I Ignored it.
    I then donwloaded Java 7 Update 10, but soon to be the same error as the Java OS X 2012-006 error.
    My Computer is a Late 2012 Macbook Pro 13-Inch.
    Is there any text that logs what I am doing in the installer? If you tell me where that is, i'll give it to you.
    Thanks for reading. And Please help.

    And This was when i installed Java Version 7 Update 10

  • AppStore submissions fail after Java Update 2012-006 1.0

    Dear All.
    After running the Java Update 2012-006 1.0 submissions to the app store using XCode Organizer no longer work. Upload fails.
    The error message is well known (an error occurred uploading to the itunes store) and it is also known that the error is related to Java as described in this post http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5783481/an-error-occurred-uploading-to-the-it unes-store - how ever the fixed described there did not work for me.
    Uploading the app from a machine which did not run the update worked.
    Best
    Christian
    Developer of [URL="https://itunes.apple.com/app/mailer-newsletter-group-mail/id321504812?mt=8"]Mailer[/URL] and [URL="https://itunes.apple.com/app/timer-with-sections/id315973422?mt=8"]Timer[/URL].

    Fixed... Here is what I did.
    To start with I had installed Oracles Java 1.7 JDK, which was really messing things up.
    Went to Finder>Applications and entered in Search box - JavaAppletPlugin.plugin
    Right clicked and removed to trash.
    A check in Terminal for Java version still showed Java 1.7
    my-imac:~ my$ java -version
    java version "1.7.0_07"
    Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_07-b10)
    Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.3-b01, mixed mode)
    1. Finder>Computer>Library>Java>JavaVirtualMachines showed the 1.7 SDK (make note of exact name of the Directory name)
    Just in case anything went wrong I copied the 1.7 SDK folder to my desktop before doing the next item
    2. In terminal type
    cd /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines
    3. You should now be in that directory
    sudo rm -rf jdk1.7.0_06.jdk  (or whatever the exact name of the directory is in step 1.)
    You may have to enter your administrator password
    The directory should now be deleted and you can verify in Terminal by
    java -version
    Mine now showed "Java 1.6_xxx"
    Went into Xcode Organizer and distributed my app to the iTunes store without a problem. Whoo,hoo!

    thank you baltwo for your reply
    well, the download of the files I mentioned before (second screenshot) ... the library files I just removed also before without success (not mentioned before, right) ... and now I tested other ways more and found a temporary solution ... I write down the steps for other users:
    1) first try: downloading the lion 10.7.5 combo update from apple downloads was not corrupted and was working fine, the itunes, java files where still corrupted and not working ....
    2) tested downloads of other web-pages -> all safe and working
    3) restart/reset router and airport = no success for requested apple downloads
    4) unplugged router/ethernet and download over airport only the apple-files through SU and was working ! success !
    so remains the question of all this why and how ? it's not the provvider, it's not ethernet, it's not apple download page ... ????
    however ... at the moment I'm safe and I hope everybody else with this problem finds the solution in the same way

  • Java update 2012-006 did not remove Java plugin from any browser

    I successfully installed Java update 2012-006 via Software Update on my iMac running OS X Lion 10.7.5 (German) and it updated the Java runtime to version 1.6.0_37 and removed the Java Preferences application as expected, but it did not remove the Java plugin from any browser!
    Safari and Firefox can still use the Java plugin as before.
    I repaired permissions, rebooted, manually downloaded Java update 2012-006 and successfully installed it again without any change to the Java plugin: it is still present on my system and fully functional from any browser!
    The web is full with messages from users missing the Java plugin after installing this update - but I could not find anything about the plugin not being removed!
    Is anyone experiencing the same behaviour under Lion? I thought this would happen only under Snow Leopard...
    What should I do now? Can I really trust this "successfull installation" of Java update 2012-006 on my system?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    Thanks - I will keep the symlink in place and I won't touch the Deploy bundle, because I need the plugin in Safari and I don't need Oracle's Java 7 for now...
    If the plugin is supposed to stay in the Deploy bundle, this could help others who miss the plugin - they could just recreate the symlink, right?
    To summarize I think we can state, that the Java update 2012-006 for Lion and Mountain Lion sometimes leaves the symlink in /Library/Internet Plugins/ untouched.
    The circumstances that lead to this behaviour are still unknown.
    The install log in Console shows that the scripts to create links and to delete obsolete files ran okay, but there was an error with the "postinstall" script. In spite of this the installation succeeded:

    Does anybody know what "com.apple.mrt.uiagent" and "com.apple.mrt" stands for?
    Obviously the "postinstall" script provides an invalid argument (at least on my system).
    I have no idea if this is related to the Java Plugin symlink not being removed...

    Hello Sorry for the inconvenience, but I have a problem in Java I can not open files, audio chat, which type of jnlp after the last update of the Java 2012-004
    Please help me in solving this problem. 

    Make sure Java is enable in your browser's security settings.
    Open Java Preferences (in Utilities folder)
    Make sure Web-start applications are enabled.
    Drag Java 32-bit to the top of the list.
    jnlp isn't an audio file format. It's just a java web-start program (Java Network Launching Protocol).

    You're confusing the browser plug-in with the JVM.

    so do I need this Java OS X 2012-006 update or no?

    The operative words from that article are:
    "This update also removes the Java Preferences application, which is no longer required to configure applet settings," the support note concludes.
    (My bold)
    In other words, the security risks of using Java have been removed, but without loss of functionality.
    If you feel you must jave Java you can get it from here:

    On Apple.com -> Support -> Downloads, searching for Java for OS X 2012-006, opening the article to download leads to Java for OS X 2012-005.
    So I can't download the Java, and it's telling me I have missing content.
    Could use please fix this?

    No I did have Java 7 installed.
    Then I uninstalled it, using the guide from here: http://www.java.com/en/download/help/mac_uninstall_java.xml
    It worked fine with 1.6.0_35 untill Apple released 1.6.0_37, then it just stopped working. In Safari, FF and Chrome.
    Tried installing Java 7 again now that 1.7.0_9 had come out to see if that solved my problems, but no that was equally screwed. So uninstalled it again.
    Where Java should run it just says "missing addon" or rather since it's danish "manglende tilbehør".
    I daily support people with their computer, and I'm close to saying I have to reinstall my mac to get java working again, and that's just dumb.
    If they would just link to a proper download article so you could download java 1.6.0_37 for mac os 10.8 then the world would be a but more peachy.

  • HT1338 Software Update is not finding latest release (April 3) of Java 2012 001 Update for Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3 on iMac mid-2007 that downloaded automatically on iMac mid-2011

    Software Update is not finding latest release (April 3) of Java 2012 001 Update on my iMac mid-2007, but it downloaded it automatically on my iMac mid-2011 yesterday. Both are running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3. When I try to download the update manually from Apple on my older iMac, it downloads okay, but when I try to open the dmg file, I get a warning message saying that opening this update may make your computer LESS secure. Do you want to proceed? (I did not).
    Why would Software Update find this update and install it automatically on one iMac and not the other, if they are both running the same version of Mac OS X Lion? I checked the installed software list on my old iMac and the Java update does not appear there. Why would this update make my old iMac less secure?

    Recall that Java is not installed as part of Lion.
    You have to install it (and are asked if you want to) when you first try to run some java stuff.
    Is it possible that the iMac 2007 does not have Java yet?
    Try this: open Terminal (from Utilities) and type java -version (exactly like that, with the space before the hyphen).
    What do you get?
    Consistent with this theory is that the dmg thing gave you the warning - installing java might make your machine less secure because java is a means for bad guys to try to do bad things to your computer.
