Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Java viewer Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: D. R. Commander (dcommander) Assigned to: Brian Hinz (bphinz) Summary: New Java viewer does not start when loaded from Xvnc Initial Comment: The new Java viewer in trunk aborts with: java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.util.PropertyPermission * read,write) when served from Xvnc's embedded HTTP server running on a Linux host. This may have always been the case, as previously, I've only tested the Java viewer by invoking it in standalone mode. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Hinz (bphinz) Date: 2011-10-04 19:41 Message: Yeah, I'm not thrilled with this solution either. Yes, signing the applet would fix the problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: D. R. Commander (dcommander) Date: 2011-10-04 19:38 Message: Urrr, but wait a second... Accessing the clipboard from the applet is kind of crucial. TurboVNC can do that as long as the applet is signed. Would signing the applet fix that for TigerVNC as well? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Hinz (bphinz) Date: 2011-10-04 18:54 Message: Patch committed in r4693 that should fix this. Need to verify that this patch does not disable access to the clipboard for applets launched via Java WebStart (regular applets, even signed ones, cannot access the clipboard but JWS applets can.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brian Hinz (bphinz) Date: 2011-10-04 06:30 Message: I think that this is because by default applets cannot access the filesystem and the new viewer wants to load a preferences file. I only ever use it standalone, so I hadn't noticed this. Should be a pretty easy fix, I'll take a look today. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1126848&aid=3418256&group_id=254363 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
