Dear MapJ's I cannnot view any map in the applet. I think everything is configured alright. the servlet example works fine, my servlet container works fine. in the applet i got the right zoom an the right layers in the layercontrol, so the mdf file is correct. then the applet throws following exception: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission modifyThreadGroup) at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:272) at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:399) at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:545) at sun.applet.AppletSecurity.checkAccess(AppletSecurity.java:139) at java.lang.ThreadGroup.checkAccess(ThreadGroup.java:279) at java.lang.Thread.init(Thread.java:265) at java.lang.Thread.<init>(Thread.java:345) at com.mapinfo.graphics.AsyncRenderer.render([DashoPro-V1.2-120198]) at com.mapinfo.mapj.MapJ.render([DashoPro-V1.2-120198]) at com.mapinfo.beans.vmapj.VisualMapJ.paintComponent([DashoPro-V1.2-120198]) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(JComponent.java:739) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(JComponent.java:523) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(JComponent.java:748) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(JComponent.java:523) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(JComponent.java:748) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(JComponent.java:523) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(JComponent.java:748) at javax.swing.JLayeredPane.paint(JLayeredPane.java:546) at javax.swing.JComponent.paintChildren(JComponent.java:523) at javax.swing.JComponent.paint(JComponent.java:719) at java.awt.GraphicsCallback$PaintCallback.run(GraphicsCallback.java:23) at sun.awt.SunGraphicsCallback.runOneComponent(SunGraphicsCallback.java:54) at sun.awt.SunGraphicsCallback.runComponents(SunGraphicsCallback.java:91) at java.awt.Container.paint(Container.java:960) at sun.awt.RepaintArea.paint(RepaintArea.java:298) at sun.awt.windows.WComponentPeer.handleEvent(WComponentPeer.java:193) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEventImpl(Component.java:2665) at java.awt.Container.dispatchEventImpl(Container.java:1213) at java.awt.Component.dispatchEvent(Component.java:2499) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:319) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEvent(EventDispatchThread.java:103) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:93) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:84) whats about the paint method ? hope for soon help, i need it. regards and thanks christian ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and put "unsubscribe MAPINFO-L" in the message body, or contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
