FULL PRODUCT VERSION : C:\>java -version java version "1.6.0_12" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_12-b04) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 11.2-b01, mixed mode, sharing) ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION : Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600] A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM : When starting JNLP files with applet support using: ======================= <applet-desc main-class="au.gov.qld.health.s8online.swt.client.SwtApplet" name="SWT" width="600" height="400"> <param name="appFolder" value="C:/Program Files/swt"/> </applet-desc> ======================= applet fails to start with: #### Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: https://domain.com/folder/ Suspect this is related to the jnlp attribute codebase="https://domain.com/folder/" - the JNLP launcher now appears to be trying to access this resource directly, but for security, this URL is denied to allow directory listings, so the server returns a 403. The JNLP now appears to abort on receiving this 403 error. Please note - this error only occurs with Java 6 update 12, and only when using the "applet-desc" to support legacy applets. This same JNLP file works in java 6 update 10. It is only java 6 update 12 that is causing this problem. STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM : 1. Ensure java 6 update 12 is installed 2. Access JNLP file 3. Observer error EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR : EXPECTED - JNLP applet should start ACTUAL - From java web start console: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: https://stsmanagementtest.health.qld.gov.au/prov/ at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.https.HttpsURLConnectionImpl.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at java.net.URL.openStream(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin2.applet.viewer.JNLP2Viewer.run(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin2.applet.viewer.JNLP2Viewer.main(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.executeApplet(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.executeMainClass(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.doLaunchApp(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR : java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: https://stsmanagementtest.health.qld.gov.au/prov/ at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at sun.net.www.protocol.https.HttpsURLConnectionImpl.getInputStream(Unknown Source) at java.net.URL.openStream(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin2.applet.viewer.JNLP2Viewer.run(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin2.applet.viewer.JNLP2Viewer.main(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.executeApplet(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.executeMainClass(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.doLaunchApp(Unknown Source) at com.sun.javaws.Launcher.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) REPRODUCIBILITY : This bug can be reproduced always. CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND : Uninstall java 6 update 12 (revert to previous version).
