Oracle App Server - Applet problem (HELP)

Question

I have a problem with accessing an applet in placed in a sub directory from the webroot. Basically, I can run an applet successfully in my webroot. When the same applet is placed in a sub dir in the webroot, OAS can't resolve the path and can't find the class file. Here's how I specified my applet:
<applet code=com.helloapplet width=200 height=50>
The helloapplet.class is in the "com" package and placed in the "com" dir under the webroot.
I tried this also:
<applet code="helloapplet.class" CODEBASE="com" width=200 height=50>
both with the helloapplet.class as part of the "com" package and with it as part of the default package in the "com" dir.
Anyideas greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Try the following:
Move the RMI classes to applib directory instead of encapsulating it in the application. This will ensure that the classes are seen across applications so that whoever activates the RMI registry will not be the only one who can see the RMI classes, but other apps that needed to bind their own classes can see them as well.
Alternatively, you can add this in application.xml:
<library path="<rmi class directory"/>
or
<library path="<jar file that contains rmi classes (ex. rmiclass.jar)>"/>
