ReportViewer.jar running under Java Version 6 Update 17

Hello,
Does anyone know how to resolve the missing icons issue when running the ReportViewer.jar tool under the above Java version. Under update 16 the viewer had all the correct buttons and icons and worked great. Since the upgrade to Java update 17 the icons have disappeared from the viewer. The buttons are still there but no icons.
I am using Crystal Reports XI developer edition with the latest service packs on Windows 7.
Regards
Adrian

This solution worked for me. All settings and bookmarks are intact. Thank you.

JavaMediaFrameWork fails under Java 1.4 but runs under Java 1.3

I have an JMF application running under webstart. It runs ok in Java 1.3
Now I am trying to get ti to run under Java 1.4. The attached error is rather useless,
but by guess at what is happening is that the JMF control has some .awt. stuff included
but that Java 1.4 emulates .awt. in swing. But something was not set and the default does not
work.
This error messages does not appear in the 1.3 run
Any suggestions would be greatly appriatated.

running ok from here on

I have also experienced buggy problems with 1.4 from things that work perfectly well in 1.3. I've informed Sun about some of my bugs and of course they're having trouble reproducing them, but what I'm going to do is just stick with 1.3 until 1.5 comes out, and then give that a try. If 1.5 is as buggy as 1.4, then perhaps I'll simply dive into C++ and leave Java behind.

C running under Java?

Greetings,
I have the need to create a Java program using SWING or using a web interface with JSP/Servlets however one of the program modules requires the input of a C code that needs to be run.
Is this possible?
For example, In the module I have a TextArea where I input something like
#include <stdio.h>
printf("Hello");
(I'm not a C programmer just say this as reference)
And Java will compile it in C and execute it.
Is this possible in both enviroments? Application AND/OR WEB using JSP/Servlets?
Thank you.

Simple.
java.lang.Runtime.exec() returns a java.lang.Process object.
With this object you can get an inputstream returned from [url http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/lang/Process.html#getInputStream()]Process.getInputStream() call that will allow you to read all data outputed from the process.
With that data rread, you can then output it in a Frame or a HTML page or whatever.

Help tracking down a file descriptor leak under java 6

I have a large application I work on that runs fine under java5 (apart from possibly the latest update) but running under java 6 results in file descriptors used for TCP sockets being leaked.
I'm testing this under FreeBSD 6 (both i386 and amd64) using diablo JDK and a port build jdk-1.6.0.3p3 but I have had reports from other users of exactly the same issue under various linux distributions. There are some reports that going back as far as 1.6.0b5 will resolve the issue but no later version works and a few reports that the latest 1.5 updates have the same issue.
This application is using standard IO so Socket/ServerSocket and occasionally SSLSocket, no NIO is involved. Under the problem JDKs it will run for a while before available FDs are exhausted and then fall over with a "too many open files" exception. So far I have been unable to recreate the situation in a simple testcase and the fact it works fine under earlier JDKs is really causing me issues with deciding where to look for the issue.
Using lsof to watch the FDs that are leaked I see a steadily increasing number shown in the following state:
java 23438 djb 54u IPv4 0xffffff0091ad02f8 0t0 TCP *:* (CLOSED)
java 23438 djb 55u IPv4 0xffffff0105aa45f0 0t0 TCP *:* (CLOSED)
java 23438 djb 56u IPv4 0xffffff01260c15f0 0t0 TCP *:* (CLOSED)
java 23438 djb 57u IPv4 0xffffff012a2ae8e8 0t0 TCP *:* (CLOSED)
If these were showing as say (CLOSE_WAIT) then I would understand where they are coming from but as far as I understand the above means the socket has been fully closed but the FD simply hasn't been released. I'm not an expert on the TCP protocol however so I may be wrong here.
I did try making the application set SoLinger(0,true) on all sockets which of course made all connecting clients think the connection was aborted rather than gracefully closed but even with this setting the FD leak persisted.
I've gone as far as looking at what I think are the relevant parts of the src for both JDK versions I am using but there are very few changes and nothing that obviously looks linked.
I'm fully prepared to spend a lot of time looking into this and I'm sure I'd eventually find the cause but if anyone here already knows what the answer may be or can simply give me a nudge in the best direction to look I would be very grateful.

After weeks of dancing around the issue for weeks, we narrowed it down to garbage collection. If we put System.gc() to run periodically , file descriptors get garbage collected properly . I've tried playing with the settings by using XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC which seems to help a great deal while system is under stress. However when there is light activity.. the file descriptors grow again and eventually bring everything down.
Any clues ? is there any way to make gc to perform full collection more often ?
pls whelp !!!

Running multiple java apps simultaneously, each using a different jre.

I have a situation where I have 3 or 4 applications (and one applet) that were built over time, each with a different version of the jdk (ranging from 1.2.2.005 to 1.3.2). I need to know of a way (and it must exist) to run each of these applications on the same machine, and at runtime, have each application (or applet) run with its respective version of the jre. Certainly, one could change some source code and make all programs compatible with a particular jre, but that doesn't solve my problem if a new app is built with a new version of the jdk down the road. Currently, each runs fine by themselves, but if I try to run them together as different processes, some won't do anything because the default jre may not be what it needs. Would the Java Plug-in software have a role to play in this? Is there a way to specify (link) which application should use which jre?
P.S. These applications (right now) don't have to interact or interface in any way. I just need to have them all running as separate processes on the same machine and be able to jump from one to the other.

However ... if you have the programs running in Java1.x, I
wouldn't recommend to let it run under Java 1.y; atleast
not without thorough testing.I do it all the time and have not had a problem. I'm
currently using JDK 1.4 beta 3 and I regularly run a
Java application written with JDK 1.1.
It sounds like the programs you are running are
relying on behavior that is not guaranteed. If that
behavior changes in a later version, it can break your
program. Program to the contracts provided by other
classes and packages, and you should have few or no
problems.I guess you are right. Maybe you can help me with the following problem (this is off this topic, I know): I have Swing JDK 1.2 and Swing from JDK 1.3. I have to register keys on components.
In JDK 1.2 I can use registerKeyBoardAction, in JDK 1.3 I have to use input maps and action maps. Both solutions only work with certain JDK. What I did was writing code which detects the java version and takes the appropriate action to register the keys. To make the thing compile in 1.2, I have to use reflection for the input/action map methods, because they are only available in 1.3.
Any idea how to solve this more elegantly ?

Must install Java 6 Update 7 plugin.

We have a web app that is a core component of our business and it will only run with Java 6 Update 7, It has been tested up to Update 17. From what I finding through the forums, helps and other sources it seems the Firefox 19.0 will not allow this plugin to be installed. I can work with this mess related to allowing one website access to the Plugin, but if Firefox can block the install of the product I would hope that there is some method to over-ride the hard coded language that does not allow java 6 installs if they are older than Update 31.
I would simply switch browsers but there are other considerations that makes the browser swap a bit problematic.

Old Java is not safe on untrusted or compromised sites, so you should be cautious about using it on the wilds of the web. You might consider creating two parallel instances of Firefox, one for your app (with old Java) and another for regular browsing (with newer Java or no Java) in order to limit your vulnerability.
That said, for your "vulnerable" profile, note that Firefox uses a data file to identify unsafe add-ons. By default, a new blocklist.xml is downloaded every 24 hours. This article has more info on the file and related settings: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Blocklist.xml]. For anyone disabling the blocklist, it becomes more important to take manual action to root out old other insecure plugins manually. The [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/ Plugin Check site] can help with that.
Regarding running multiple Firefox instances/profiles in parallel, see, for example, [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/922363 Two Firefox at the same time, (one with images, other without)?]

HT204036 why do apps demand older versions (java 6) if their jar runs fine under java 8 (e.g. freemind) ?

Hello Community
Since i had installed the newest version of Java several Java applications urge me to install the older Java 6.
I wonder why since the jar included in the package runs fine under Java 8 as expected.
regards volker

There are two different Java distributions for end users: one distributed by Apple, and one by Oracle. They don't overlap in function.
The Apple Java runtime (version 6) is needed to run bare jar files and older standalone Java applications. Newer Java applications have the Java runtime built in, and don't depend on Apple's Java.
The Oracle Java runtime (version 8 or later) is a web plugin only. It's used to run Java applets on web pages and Java WebStart applications. You can determine whether it's installed and up to date by looking for a preference pane named Java in System Preferences. If it's present, open it. It will launch the "Java Control Panel." Select the Update tab.

Updating to signed JARs causes problems for older Java versions?

Bear with me on this one -- not a Java developer, but an end user of Java products looking for a little clarification.
We use a product which delivers a Java application via JAR file / web to end users (GlobalScape's EFT server). With the recent release of Java 7 Update 51, users have been running into issues running these JAR files as they are not properly "signed". We're working with the vendor to get updated signed JAR files in place, but they've warned us that these new JAR files will cause errors (or maybe not work at all) on folks who aren't running Java 7 Update 51.
Trying to wrap my head around why that might be. Best theory I can come up with from perusing threads here along with the Java team blogs is that the new security attributes used in the updated JAR files aren't "trusted" by older versions of Java (prior to Update 51?).
We're pushing our vendor for clarification, but curious if someone here could help explain.
Thanks!

I suspect the problem with 'new JAR files will cause errors' is mainly because the vendor keeps enhancing their product, and may not any more support older JREs, or the new jars are no more compatible For example, we build our product on JDK 1.5 ... as some users out there must use that one because the 'newer and better' release does not work for them.
But so far, we have not seen any problems running the 'JRE 7 Compliant' applications on older releases ... provided you can make your application run on latest JRE 7.
In most cases, one can simply remove the previous signature, add (now required) attributes, and sign the same jar again.
But I have yet to find a vendor that would simply add attributes to some older release and re-sign those. Perhaps they can't repeat the build / QA cycle, and would not 'trust' the re-signed jars.
Our curse are signed Cryptographic Provider jars.
Those must be signed by certificates rooted by Sun/Oracle, and adding attributes invalidates that signature - we can re-sign them, but then they won't work. In our case, we are stuck with 5+ year old Bouncy Castle jars, and it does not help us that their 'current' jars are signed with attributes - they are completely incompatible..
IMHO, Oracle failed to think this all thru - or does not care.

I can`t open jar files though my java version is updated

Hello everybody, I`m using Macbook Pro 13` with Lion on it.
As it says in the title, I can`t open jar files though, my java version is updated.
It says, I shuld check the console.
Right now, my java version is, "1.7.0_15", and i`m trying to open a jar file created 3 days ago, by some developer.
Although, if im trying to open jar file created 1 year ago, it doe`s open.
Why is that? and, How can i fix it?
Thanks.

With Java 6 and prior, you had to enable logging first before you could view error messages in Console. I am guessing that you need to check the Java Control Panel to see if logging is turned on.

Of course, what you do is up to you, because ultimately it is your problem, not ours. (I just thought I'd stress that last part to indicate to you that it is your onus to encourage people to read, experiment & answer.)
The only change I need to do to make it work is enable update 23 and disable update 24 in Java Control Panel.Have you tried searching the bug database for hits? There were some security updates in 1.6.0_24 that affected a number of things, including copy and access to the Robot. Perhaps there was a bug introduced at the same time.
..Unless I have misunderstood & what you are trying to do is somehow related to (yet) another security bug fix. ;)

My computer is running Java 6 Update 34, does Firefox Block it because it isn't the latest version of Java? Because i cant launch Webex using Firefox.

For some reason i need to have java 6 install in my computer to run some program, but then im unable to have webex to run on Firefox, it says java not install.
But im able to run using IE, i really dont like IE and wish to stay with Firefox. Is it Firefox block it and is there anyway to unblock?

Nope, Not working. Same error happens when i update my Java 6 Update 34 to Update 45. But yet still i cant launch Webex.
But i try to install Java 7 into my computer, once Java 7 install, then able to launch Webex. Just wish to know is it block by Firefox?
==========================================================
This is the error message i got:
When a security message appears, click Yes to continue setting up the WebEx Meeting Center application.
If you clicked No because you want to set up the Meeting Center application at a later time, or a security message does not appear, you may choose to download and run the Meeting Center Application Installer before starting or joining a meeting.

Download Meeting Center Application Installer for Firefox or Chrome

When attenption to run a Java (lasted version) app, warning security box appears (no text displayed) and then Firefox is totally locked

Using Vista, Foxfire 18.0.1 runs fine until attempting to access a site that need Java to display information. Now with the recent security warning, I first get a screen that that indicated "This plug in has security vulnerabilities -- Click here to activate Java Platform SE & U Platform."
When I click to activate, another box appears the indicates security warning. Only the box appears and at that point Foxfire is totally locked up. At that point I need to go the Task Master to kill Foxfire as well as the security popup window.
The Java Control Panel indicates that I have the latest version of Java.
Suggestions?

You can bypass the first Firefox "Click to Play" prompt for trusted sites by setting Firefox to always activate plugins for specific sites - see [[How to use Java if it's been blocked]]
The second prompt is from Java itself, since the default security level has been increased to "High" in Java 7 Update 11. Ref:
* [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/7u11-relnotes-1896856.html Java 7 Update 11 release notes]
*Oracle's [http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/jcp.html#security Java Control Panel documentation (Security)]
From the Java 7 Update 11 release notes:
Bug Fixes
This release contains fixes for security vulnerabilities. For more information, see Oracle Security Alert for CVE-2013-0422.
In addition, the following change has been made:
Area: deploy
Synopsis: Default Security Level Setting Changed to High
The default security level for Java applets and web start applications has been increased from "Medium" to "High". This affects the conditions under which unsigned (sandboxed) Java web applications can run. Previously, as long as you had the latest secure Java release installed applets and web start applications would continue to run as always. With the "High" setting the user is always warned before any unsigned application is run to prevent silent exploitation.
It might help if you could post a link to some of the sites where Firefox locks up after you get the second security prompt, so that other users with Java 7 Update 11 can check it out. (I'm using Java 6 Update 38 so I don't get that second Java security prompt)
