Java- applet problems

Teamsite 5.5.2
System requirements show JVM supported but does not say anything about SUN Java 1.4.x that I could find. Using Sun Java, the import files applet does not show a complete list of available files/folders within a folder. Where as JVM works perfectly. The problem is that SUN Java is a standard and if it can be used then we will need to use it. Has anyone else had the similiar problem?

Are we talking Vanilla 5.5.2? What Service Pack level? What operating system are you using?

Teamsite 5.5.2 sp3 on solaris 8 - both QA and production are having the problem with SUN

This import bug was fixed in a later SP for 5.5.2 -- I would suggest
just getting the last 5.5 service pack and using that.

You don't see any references to it because JRE 1.4 was not
released by the time 5.5.2 SP3 came out... I'm not sure we
even supported any Sun plug-in until SP4 or SP5 or some such.

As to which plug-in to use.. (Sun's vs Microsoft) if you're running
5.5.2 SPx, you'll have less problems if you stick to the MS JVM.

Thanks for the feedback. We have an upgrade to 6.1 possibly 6.5 in the works. So I will stick with JVM until then.

Java applets that come with TeamSite seemed tuned to work best with MS JVM only. For example, we too have users who see incomplete listing of their local directories when they use the Import Files applet. This started happening when we switched to Sun JVM on the desktops. We have TeamSite 5.5.2 with SP6 on Sun servers. Clients are MS IE 6.1+. I wonder if Interwoven is going to fix the applets so that they work with Sun JVM as well as they used to with MS JVM.

Did you also find that users had trouble importing files ie. the applet hung when you click on import??? I am having the same problems viewing files but also cannot import anything.

If you upgrade to 6.5 and use, for example, JRE 1.4, it should work fine.

Unfortunately sometimes people install a JRE that did not exist
when we tested the product so results may be unpredictable.

I forget if we've reached end-of-life on 5.5.2 yet. But if not, it's close
so hopefully you're planning that soon.
