The intention is to use an Applet which call's servlets to read and update data on our AS400. I call the Applet through an HTML-page. In the statusbar of explorer I can see that classes used by the Applet are loaded, however it is so fast I can't read them all. At a certain point I get an error that this Applet can't be instantiated. Do you know if a log exists where one can see which classes are loaded ? Here's is the Applet-method which call's the servlet and returns the data I need : public TimeSheetScreenData sendPostMessage(Serializable obj) throws java.io.IOException { try { URL url = new URL(getCodeBase (),"/servlet/timesheets.STimeSheetController"); URLConnection con = url.openConnection(); // Prepare for both input and output con.setDoInput(true); con.setDoOutput(true); // Turn off caching con.setUseCaches(false); // Set the content type to be java-internal/classname con.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "java-internal/" + obj.getClass().getName()); // Write the serialized object as post data ObjectOutputStream out = new ObjectOutputStream(con.getOutputStream()); out.writeObject(obj); out.flush(); out.close(); // Read the response ObjectInputStream in = new ObjectInputStream(con.getInputStream ()); return (TimeSheetScreenData)in.readObject(); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } return null; } Because of security-related problems, we try to combine a APPLET-SERVLET combination to run a little AS400-application. I created the java-applet and servlet in VAJAVA (WDT400) where no errors exists anymore. I can run the applet from within VAJAVA, although only till the servlet needs to be loaded. (question 1) 1) How do I test this within VAJAVA. I can start the servletengine but don't know what to do next.... 2) I moved all files to the WebServer and tried to load the applet from the WebServer. Following error is shown in java-console : com.ms.security.SecurityExceptionEx[timesheets/ATimeSheets.<init>]: java.io.IOException: bad path: C:\WINNT\Java\lib\swing.properties at com/ms/security/permissions/FileIOPermission.check at com/ms/security/PolicyEngine.deepCheck at com/ms/security/PolicyEngine.checkPermission at com/ms/security/StandardSecurityManager.chk at com/ms/security/StandardSecurityManager.checkRead at java/io/FileInputStream.<init> at java/io/FileInputStream.<init> at javax/swing/UIManager$3.run at javax/swing/SwingUtilities.doPrivileged at javax/swing/UIManager.loadSwingProperties at javax/swing/UIManager.initialize at javax/swing/UIManager.maybeInitialize at javax/swing/UIManager.getUI at javax/swing/JPanel.updateUI at javax/swing/JPanel.<init> at javax/swing/JPanel.<init> at javax/swing/JRootPane.createGlassPane at javax/swing/JRootPane.<init> at javax/swing/JApplet.createRootPane at javax/swing/JApplet.<init> at timesheets/ATimeSheets.<init> at com/ms/applet/BrowserAppletFrame.newInstance at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.processSentEvent at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.processSentEvent at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.run at java/lang/Thread.run java.lang.InstantiationException: timesheets/ATimeSheets at com/ms/applet/BrowserAppletFrame.newInstance at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.processSentEvent at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.processSentEvent at com/ms/applet/AppletPanel.run at java/lang/Thread.run I'm pretty sure the classes are in the correct folders, however the file swing.properties does not exist ! any help welcome... _______________________________________________ Swing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://eos.dk/mailman/listinfo/swing
