[Geoserver-users] GeoServer Version not supporting Chrome?

Hi All, My current GeoServer version 2.4.4 is able to show the maps (polygons) on all types of browser (IE, Chrome and Firefox). However, when I tried to upgrade to 2.11.0 and above version (haven't try the 2.5.0 - 2.10.5), the map (or polygons) can only show up on IE but not chrome and Firefox.

Anyone using Oracle JDK 8u151 or later who installed the unlimited strength policy jars, please report back on whether this method still works. Kind regards, Ben. On 06/12/17 10:18, Ben Caradoc-Davies wrote: Oracle JDK 8u151 introduces a new mechanism to enable unlimited strength

Ben, I did copy the JCE jar files as previously done but to no avail. I also performed an install of Ju151 as well as Ju144 side by side and assess behaviour so that failed as well. Hence I diverted away from thinking the Java Policy files were at fault. Downgraded tomcat version to 8.5 and

Thank you, Sameer. It is possible that backwards-compatibility (support for policy jars) does not work as documented by Oracle for 8u151 or later. This will be a very important finding for many GeoServer users. Kind regards, Ben. On 06/12/17 10:18, Abdool, Sameer wrote: Ben, I did copy the

[Geoserver-users] Unlimited strength cryptography in Oracle JDK 8u151 and later

Oracle JDK 8u151 introduces a new mechanism to enable unlimited strength cryptography. For each new JDK installation, in jre/lib/security/java.security uncomment the line: #crypto.policy=unlimited to read: crypto.policy=unlimited The old mechanism (installing policy jars) *should* still

Sameer, the crypto policy change in Oracle JDK 8u151 is new (seven weeks old) and yes, you are right, not yet documented in the GeoServer manual. The new behaviour is supposed to be backwards compatible, so I suspect that your new JDK does not have the policy files installed (breaking your

Hi Ben, Thank you very much for the detailed explanation. I was too focused on JCE jurisdiction files replacement at first then diverted onto something else away from the real problem. Can't wait to try the fix tomorrow and will of course keep you posted. By the way I could not find

Sameer, it is not a bug: it is a "feature" (of Oracle JDK 8u151): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/8u151-relnotes-3850493.html "New Features security-libs/javax.crypto New Security property to control crypto policy This release introduces a new feature whereby the JCE
