Applet Issue on proxy server with JRE 1.5.0_x on Worksite MP 4.1 Hotfix B9

When we try to open the document following error is thrown by the applet:

Caught exception while downloading file:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermission : connect,resolve)

liveconnect: Invoking method: public synchronized java.lang.String com.imanage.workteam.filetransfer.TransferClient.getResponse()

This seems to happen when the browser is using proxy server for connection to the internet.

Issue is easily reproducible on JRE 1.5.0_x and I.E 6.0 on any test
environment by using proxy server to connect to the internet from browser.
Both JRE 1.5.0_x and I.E 6.0 are supported by B9. Functionality works with proxy on JRE 1.4.2_x

Therefore workarounds like – bypassing proxy, disabling applet are not acceptable. Even modifying the java.policy file for each client does not seem to be a feasible solution.

Any help on this will be surely appreciated.

Is there any documentation from Interwoven saying that J2RE 1.5 is supported on Worksite MP 4.1 + HFB9? I thought the recommendation is 1.4.XX and not JRE 1.5 and above

praveen_nagpal

Yes, Worksite MP is compliant for JRE 1.5 from Hotfix B7 onwards.

Nicholas

Not sure, if it is the resolution for this problem but there is one line of code that you can add in your java.policy. This process is available in manuals.

Just try it, may be you will get the resolution.

Thanks Nicholas

praveen_nagpal

Could you be more specific on the manuals?

Are you talking about granting socket permission to the proxy host and port in java policy file?
This option does work on 1.5.0_x but its not feasible for us as we can't request customers to update their policy file.

Nicholas

Yes. I am not sure which manual contains this information, may be intstallation guide you can check.

If it is not feasible then you might want to talk to support for this resolution.

Thanks Nicholas
