Hey all, I'm a Tomcat noob so please forgive any doofus terminology. First
off: Tomcat 4.0 on Win2K Pro with Java 1.3.1, browser is Netscape 6.2.
I'm using Tomcat to build HTML pages from a Java app (duh). For demo
purposes, I want to have the main web page to be able to start the app as
HTML or an applet (see my HTML file at bottom). I know the applet is
running (when the page is loaded) because it's painting a button. Pushing
the button causes my app to run but I get the following error:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.net.SocketPermission DGPORT resolve)
OK, so I look through the doc and find something in the catalina.policy
file. I tried adding permissions to catalina.policy (and starting Tomcat
with the -security option) but nothing changes. I even tried give ALL
permissions to ALL apps by adding:
grant {
blah blah blah
permission java.security.AllPermission;
}
I tried setting "CATALINA_OPTS=-Djava.security.debug=all" to see if that
would give me any clues but I don't see any messages in the output that
contain the word "FAIL".
If I load the page straight from disk (bypassing Tomcat) the applet runs
fine, so I'm pretty sure it's Tomcat that's getting in the way.
Any clues would be mucho appreciated. Thanks.
