Hi Eran - I thought this sounded a lot like the problem that you folks are having. Thank you for confirming the domain name aspect of it.

Question - So, i assume there is no problem as long as the DNS reverse lookup IP address resolves to the domain name of the URL--

for example, published figures at Biochemical Journal work perfectly (requires subscription):

http://www.biochemj.org/bj/410/0439/bj4100439add2.htm

--can you do a reverse lookup on that URL (I'm assuming you have a subscription from the Weizmann...) and confirm that -- or tell me how to do a reverse lookup myself?

Thanks,

Frieda

Hi Frieda,

This is a issue we are dealing with in Proteopedia as well.

The combination of Firefox version 2 and Java version 1.6.0_03+ (latest stable release is 1.6.0_05) is more sensitive to security issues.

When I do a reverse DNS lookup on the IP address you gave (64.95.78.91) I get permaculture.gaiahost.coop. I'm guessing that this name does not match the domain name of the website where you are having these problems. This mismatch causes the combination of FF2 and Java 1.6.0_03+. At least that is how I understand it at the moment, and if anyone wants to correct me I'll be glad to be corrected.

Regular commands seem to be passed ok to the Jmol applet, but scripts or files stored on the server throw the error when you try to execute or load them. The odd part is that any script or load file commands inside the original definition of the applet works fine.

Rolf pointed out a message board dealing with the issue in one of his previous messages I've copied below:


This looks like a problem we are also facing with our "JenaLib Jmol
Viewer" and Firefox. It started with Java version 1.6.0_03.
Since Egon uses 1.6.0_05 I would expect that he will also have the same
"java.security.AccessControlException" problem with the following URL:

http://www.fli-leibniz.de/cgi-bin/3d_mapping.pl?CODE=1deh

I tried other Jmol sites and they worked fine with Java 1.6.0_03. But I
couldn't figure out what makes the difference.
The following thread in the Java forum
"http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5230759"; seems to refer to this problem. It is suggested there that the problem could be avoided by connecting back to the server before any liveconnect calls are made.
But removing any callbacks didn't help with our viewer and I couldn't
detect any other liveconnect calls before loading the PDB file and
script from our server.

As explanation for the difference between InternetExplorer and Firefox I found the suggestion that the more stringent default security policy of
Firefox is responsible for it.

Regards,
Rolf


Best regards,
Eran

CORRECTION - the pdb file does not load into the applet when all files
are placed into the same directory. SO the breakage is even worse in
this case.

script ERROR: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.net.SocketPermission 64.95.78.91:80 connect,resolve)


--------Sent previously, incorrect:
Placing all the files in the same directory (and changing all the file
calls) still results in a security error when a script is called by a
button:
