JRE 1.3.1_01a with IE

I've been testing JRE 1.3.1_01a with the Java plug-in on Internet Explorer 5, 5.5 & 6.
Now the docs say that this vesion of the JRE is supposed to support the <applet> tag, but I am having problems.
I can get the <applet> tag to launch an applet in IE 6, but not in IE 5 or IE 5.5
IE 5 & IE 5.5 still use the MS VM.
I can see that the Sun Plug-In is installed under the advanced options of IE and the box is checked!
I have restarted the machines, but still can only get this to work in IE 6.
Any suggestions?

To ensure that you use the plug-in you should convert your html. The HTML converter comes with the JDK.
I think that you can start it with HTMLConverter.bat -gui.
at the prompt. After you've converted your HTML you'll see that the APPLET Tag is replaced by na OBJECT tag with an EMBED. The OBJECT is seen only be IE and the EMBED by Netscape.
Hope that Help

It is possible to include the jre(not the installer) with the application?

Is it possible to include the jre(not the installer) with the application, so that the application will run on its own jre.??
If so please provide me instructions,how to do it.
Thanks

What is the latest version of Java/JRE that Is compatible with AMD64 bit Wi

New to the AMD64 bit windows platform. What is the latest version of JRE that is compatible with AMD64 bit windows 2003 Enterprise edition and Standard Edition Server and where can I download it.

Forcing the JRE WebStart runs in, with deployment.properties

Our application needs webstart to run in a non-public JRE, i.e. one that
does not have a registry entry. The problem is, if you run javaws.exe
from one JRE, webstart can fork off a javaw.exe from another public JRE.
We do not want this behavior, as it causes potential problems. I thought
that creating a .0. entry for our non-public JRE in the deployment.properties
file would solve the problem, and it does for most cases, but I still see some
cases where a public javaw.exe gets run.
What I need to know is, what logic does webstart use to decide which JRE to
use. I have verified that it is possible to use a non-public JRE to run webstart,
as long as the JRE has an entry in the deployment.properties file.
Thanks for any help. I am running a 1.4.2 JRE on Windows platforms.

Two problems with that:
1. I cannot modify the 'deployment.properties' as it will interfear with the client PC's java installation. Plus, I would have to automated this modification somehow for every client PC the application is installed on.
2. The JRE is installed with the application by an installer and not via a URL. I do not want to have clients with slower connections to have to download our JRE over the line just because I cannot force JWS to use the one installed with the application.
In JWS 1.0 I could force this behavior in the javaws.cfg file. But the next version of our application is using JRE 1.4.2 with JWS 1.2, and the configuration files have been changed and moved around.
I just need JWS to update my applications JARs and not bother with the JRE.
Is there anything I can do?

Problems with signed Applet for File Download under JRE 1.4 (works with 1.3

Dear all,
i encountered a very strange behaviour with JRE 1.4x. A signed applet used for file download worked on all platforms (Windows NT, 2000 and XP wth/wthout SP...) until I installed JRE 1.4.x (1.4.1 or 1.4.2)
I get an EOFException when downloading binary files (for ASCII it works fine) when trying to readByte() from a DataInputStream. But not immideately, but after x bytes in the while-loop. Security is fine (I know there have been changes to that in jre 1.4, the applet itself can be started an runs with ASCII files for transfer)
Does anyone know, what has changed in jre1.4.
As I said, it works fine under jre 1.3.x
The relevant code is below: byte bt = dis.readByte(); causes the error
try{
// Get URL from Server
URL uFile = new URL(sFilename);
sThisURLFile = uFile.getFile();
Integer inte = new Integer(i);
//open input stream for the file on server
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(new BufferedInputStream
(uFile.openConnection().getInputStream()));
//open output stream for the file on local drive
String sFilenameOnly = sThisURLFile.substring(sThisURLFile.lastIndexOf('/')+1);
int iDotPos = sFilenameOnly.lastIndexOf(".");
String sExt;
if (iDotPos > 0) {
sExt= sFilenameOnly.substring(iDotPos);
} else {
sExt = "";
File fileOut = new File(sDownloadDir + sThisURLFile.substring(sThisURLFile.lastIndexOf('/')+1) );
DataOutputStream dos = new DataOutputStream(new
BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(fileOut)));
//read one byte from input stream, and write that byte to output stream
long nByte = 0;
int iCnt = 0;
iFilesizeDone ++;
while (nByte < iFilesize){
String sErrPs = new String();
try{
sErrPs = "00";
byte bt = dis.readByte();
sErrPs = "01";
dos.writeByte(bt);
} catch (EOFException ee)
System.err.println("internal EOFException: " + ee.getMessage());
System.out.println("Error Filesize is " nByte " of " iFilesize "---" + sErrPs);
break;
nByte++;
iFilesizeDone ++;
iCnt ++;
if(iCnt >= 10240) {
ShowProgress(nByte, iFilesize, iFilesizeDone, iFilesizeTotal); // repaint does not work during init-procedure
iCnt = 0;
line = "Progress: Total: " + ((iFilesizeDone*100)/iFilesizeTotal) + " perc, " + iFilesizeTotal/1024 +" kbytes" ;
labLine.setText(line);
//dos.flush(); // improves Client performance (Agent-Call!)
dis.close();
dos.close();
}// End try
catch (EOFException ee)
System.err.println("EOFException: " + ee.getMessage()e);
catch (SecurityException se)
System.err.println("SecurityException: " + se.getMessage());
catch (IOException ioe)
System.err.println("IOException: " + ioe.getMessage());

perhaps they've changed something with the file blocking.
btw, you should try to use something like this
DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(is);
byte[] buffer=new byte[8192];
int numBytesRead;
while ( dis.available()>0 ) {
numBytesRead = dis.read(buffer);
}

Applet work with JRE 7_51 but NOT with JRE 7_45

Hello,
My major problem is, that my Applet signed with COMODO certificate DOES NOT WORK with JRE 7_45.
The SAME applet works fine with JRE 7_45, if I sign this applet WITH A SELFMADE UNTRUSTED certificate.
WHY the comodo signed applet doesn't run in JRE 7_45 ???
If i launch the comodo signed applet with JRE 7_51 it works perfect !!!
But in our company we got JRE 7_45 and I have to deal with JRE 7_45. That’s my problem.
Could you please tell me a solution what I have to do that the comodo signed applet works also in JRE 7_45.
Thank you!
Philipp

Thanks gimbal2.
I agree the problem may be in the proxy or in the firewall but I don' to know how to prove it as if i call the servlet url from browser I dont have problems .
The version im using is 6.45 but im sure the same problem occurs also with other versions of JRE6 .
... and the problem disappear with JRE7 ...
trouble is my company want people to use JRE6
any idea ?

Jre 1.4.1 with IE5 and Mozilla MAC OS X

Hi,
I just installed the JRE 1.4.1 on Mac OS X.
It's working fine with the apple's browser SAFARI.
But my other browsers,IE5 an Mozilla, still launch the applets in the JRE 1.3.1.
Is there a way to force IE5 and Mozilla to use the 1.4.1 jre ?
Thank you
Laurent

Hi
on Apple website, you find your answer :
Q: What J2SE version do Java applets run under inside a browser?
A: Apple's Safari browser runs all Java applets under J2SE 1.4.1 if 1.4.1 is installed. Other browsers are currently developed to specifically use our 1.3.1 implementation, and will need to be updated. If you would like to see your favorite browser use 1.4.1, please contact the vendor and ask them to adopt the newer version.

Jre plugin not working with IE5.5

System
Windows2000 version 5
IE 5.5
Netscape 4.08 & 6.1
jdk1.3.1
jre1.3.1
My applet loads fine with netscape 4.08 & 6.1, but as soon as I try it with IE 5.5 it hangs unless i put the mouse pointer over a little black square that appears on the web page. This starts a download of the plugin cab file from sun's site. Then only a little portion of my applet is displayed on the top left corner. Funny thing is it worked fine before I installed jre1.3.1. before that it would download a cab file from sun. I've checked the CLASSPATH and PATH and nothing points to anything other than 1.3.1 of jre. Plus the fact that it works with netscape, even 6.1. Generally its netscape which has the problems. any ideas?

You might try the beta plugin available for download from the developer connection. It allows the Sun JRE to run in IE6 and Netscape6 with just a html page with the <APPLET> tag. So far it seems to be working okay.

Could not find the main class JRE 1.6 only with console program into Contro

Hi,
I want replace JRE1.5-11 with JRE 1.6.
Applet is running correctly with JRE 1.6.
But when i want launching Java program located into "Parameters/Control Panel"
I have following error message "Could not find the main class JRE 1.6 "
Regards
Philippe

i wouldn't report a nullpointer to sun unless you're fairly confident there's some sort of bug. if main() can't be found it sounds to me like a config issue. if nullpointer, sounds like a code issue. post the code if you want, but i don't think sun will help you debug this.

Specifiying different JRE than the bundled with JDK

We are migrating out web application previously deployed on Sun ONE 6.0 to Sun ONE 6.1 and upgrading to JRE 1.5_06 but JDK will remain to be 1.4.x. My question is how I can use a differnt JRE because in the "Java" tab in the admin interface we can set the Java path which points to the JDK and I'm assuming it uses the same JRE that is in that folder. I can ofcourse explicitly delete the jre folder and replace it with the upgraded JRE 1.5 but just wondering if thats the best option...
Thanks
SA

yeah i understand it wont be a good idea to mix and match the jre but the requiremnet for my product is to move to jre 1.5 so i need to do move to the higher JRE.
For those who may wanna know one of doing that is to procompile all your JSPs and in the server.xml you can manually set the java-home and then make sure in the start script those changes are reflected by setting the relative paths right..

UnsupportedEncodingException in JRE only and not with SDK

Hi,
I am running my Java program as a application in Win NT run time environment and the app uses JConnect 5.2 as its JDBC driver. JDBC connection is succesful but a query fails for the "UnsupportedEncodingException" error listed below. I don't get the same error if I use SDK version of Java.exe but I get the error only with the java.exe of the JRE.
What is different in the Run time environment. Any solutions?
Error: java.sql.SQLException: JZ006: Caught IOException:
java.io.IOException: JZ0I6: An error occured converting UNICODE to the
charset used by the server. Error message: java.io.CharConversionException:
java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException: Cp437
Thanks,
Bala

My guess is that you use the US English version of the JRE which only have the basic encodings. If you use the International version, it should work. Check
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3.0/docs/guide/intl/encoding.doc.html

JRE 7 update 3 with javafx offline installation

Hi,
I am testing the option to run javafx application in a clean client machine with only JRE 7 update 3 installed on it.
when I install jre 7 update 3 on this machine from Oracle web site I have two options: online install or offline install, if I do offline install then jre installation does NOT install the javafx runtime, if I install the online install of the JRE than at the end of the installation it also installs the Javafx runtime.
this happens as well in JRE 7 update 2.
Is this a bug of Oracle?
thanks.

Hi,
Thanks for your answer, the information from the Javafx website is quite confusing as they state that every time the JRE is installed than the Javafx runtime is also installed from JRE 7 update 2 (no word about online or offline installation), see text from the website:
"Starting with Java SE 7 Update 2 and JavaFX 2.0.2, the JavaFX Runtime is co-installed every time the JRE is installed. The JavaFX Runtime is also installed with the JavaFX SDK, but you can still download a stand-alone version of the JavaFX Runtime here"
taken from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javafx/downloads/index.html
maybe they mean the JDK installation...
thanks,
leli.Yes, and the online installation does exactly that. The offline installation is only provided as an extra service, if you make use of that service you are expected to know what you are doing. So use the online installation and you can stop being confused.

Install only JRE and not WebStart with v1.4

I have an application running over the web that automatically installs the JRE for people if they haven't installed it yet. Right now, I'm using version 1.3.1, but I'd like to change that to version 1.4.1.
When I install the JRE with support for a browser, though, it automatically installs WebStart, which I didn't ask for. I don't need WebStart to be installing on people's computers, so I was wondering if there might be a way to install the just the JRE (and browser plugin). Anyone know if there's a way?

I also want to find a way of installing without Webstart.
REason is that this is for a citrix installation and Webstart makes the apps work differently.

How can I install a jre on client machines with no Internet Access

Hi
I have a lot of client machines located throughout the country which are connected to a central network (Oracle) application server. The client machines do not have internet access. The application now uses an applet which is accessible from the network. I would like to use the <jsp:plugin> tag to automatically download and install a jre on the client browsers that don't have a jre installed, when they access the jsp page. Unfortunately, even using iepluginurl="http://server-address/jinstall-1_4_2-windows-i586.cab, the client machines still need to access the internet to install the JRE as the cab file needs to access files at the Sun site.
Is there any online jre installer, that can be used on a network where the client machines do not have internet access? Or do I need to install the JRE manually on each machine? The browsers are all Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Thanks
David

Thanks for your reply ChuckBing.
Unfortunately I had already copied the instructions I found in the Sun documentaion to the letter and it still needed access to the internet. In the end I solved the problem by pointing the iepluginurl to a non existent file and putting a URL, pointing to an offline JRE executable on the server, as the message that appears when the applet cannot be loaded. The clients then have the choice of downloading the JRE or installing it online by clicking on the URL.
Thanks anyway.
David

JRE install help needed with linux newbie

I recently tried installing the latest JRE for Linux AMD64, following all the guidelines listed in the install instructions. However, as I am completely new to the world of Linux, I don't know if anything needs to be done beyond the install guide in order to have the JRE up and running. I have tried setting up Open Office 2 to recognise the new JRE, but have had no luck. I don't know if this is a case of me not knowing the correct directory to give in Open Office, or whether I have missed something in the Install/Configuration.
In case you need to know, the installation unpacked to "/usr/java/jre1.5.0_06"
Thank you,
Scott Christopher

You will find the solution in your Linux forum. Depending on what distribution you have, e.g. here for Debian based Ubuntu:
