I recently activated SecurityManager and had no previous issues with this. Yes they do have permissions on that directory. I am getting many errors regarding this here is a snippet of the stack: SEVERE: StandardWrapper.Throwable java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission /files/images read) at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Unknown Source) at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(Unknown Source) at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(Unknown Source) at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkRead(Unknown Source) at java.io.File.exists(Unknown Source) ..... ..... Does my syntax look correct?
I did also try the following: grant codeBase "file:/files/images/-" { permission java.security.AllPermission; }; Thanks.
