Re: Installation Problems

Yes, I had to un-zip the JAR file into my applet's development directory, and then include those classes in my jar file when I created it. That solved half of my problem. The other half involved the fact that Java applets don't have permission to access stuff (files, databases, etc) on the lo

Re: Installation Problems

I'd think you need to specify a classpath that is accessible from the context of the browser's JVM, i.e. as URLs... Alternatively you could rebundle all the dependent jars into a single jar, Eclipse is capable of doing this kind of thing. On Aug 12, 2010, at 13:06, Thomas P Laford wrote: >

Re: Installation Problems

Still no success. As Ashish suggested, I updated the MANIFEST.MF file to include a class-path entry that included all the POI jar files. My MF file looked like this: Manifest-Version: 1.0 Class-Path: poi-3.6-20091214.jar; poi-contrib-3.6-20091214.jar; poi-examples-3.6-20091214

RE: Installation Problems

Still no luck. I upgraded to IE7 (that's the approved version for my company) and that didn't fix the problem. I copied the six poi-*.jar files into the directory with my java/class files and that didn't fix the problem. I created a JAR file by typing "jar cf MyApp.jar *.class poi*.jar" and I

Alas neither solution worked. When I looked at the registry (as David suggested) there was no CLASSPATH entry for the Java VM (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Java VM). In fact I searched and didn't find anything related to IE or Java that included a classpath. I tried Adrian's suggesti

In my experience "Program Files" causes a problem (because I think due to the space) in the classpath try "progra~1" instead -Original Message- From: David Fisher [mailto:dfis...@jmlafferty.com] Sent: 11 August 2010 19:17 To: POI Users List Subject: Re: Installatio
