[ULC-developer] AccessControlException for server-side html file

[Mary Ann Pigora ARA/CFD]

I am trying to display an HTML file in a ULCHtmlPane.  The file resides
on the server.

 

It works fine with the development launcher, but when I try to run in
Tomcat, I get the following exception.  I was surprised to see this
because I am only accessing files on the server, not on the client.  I
signed all the client-side jars anyway, but it didn't help.  This is
only a problem with HTML; accessing other data files such as images for
button icons works fine, so perhaps it is how I am accessing the file
that is causing the problem?

 

I am loading the file with:

 

URL pagepath = new File(htmlFile).toURI().toURL();                      

aboutEMSTHtmlPane.setPage(pagepath.toString());

 

where htmlFile is a relative path:
"webapps/emst/WEB-INF/data/portal/aboutEMST.html"

 

This is accessing the server, correct?  Is it a signing issue, or
something else?

 

Thanks,

Mary Ann
