Re: Problem in IE while loading Java Applets on Macintosh OS X
 

Hi All,

I am Vinodh from India. I am facing a problem in Macintosh.
Currently we are testing Oracle based Forms Application using Oracle 9i
which is entirely based on Applets.

For invoking that application, we will be given an URL, which
invokes the instance for starting the oracle, basically being an Oracle
9i Web Services Application, initally the IE loads the Applet screen
followed by the application. We need to test it in Safari, Netscape and
IE. For Safari and Netscape, we downloaded the MRJ 2.2.5 and installed
the Applet Run Time Java (MRJ). The applicaiton is running smoothly in
Netscape and Safari.

Where as in case of IE, the applet is not recognized while loading
the application. I dont know the exact reason. I think it may be the
problem of IE, bcoz in preferences settings there is no inclusion of
MRJ in Java tab. But we enabled all the predefined settings like
"Alert" and so on...


Till we are yet into the problem, so thats why i need your
suggestion in order to solve the problem.

In case of MAc 9.2 we are testing the application using IE 5.1, in
that whenever we type the URL in the browser, the status bar says that
"Applet-Instance Started".... "Contacting the Server..." and finally it
says..."Applet - Error - Closing...". Also the application is not
viewing in the browser.

Awaiting for your solution...
Vinodh

URL?

<dripping with sarcasm>
A problem between IE and Java? That is unusual!

That is where the debugging begins.
[1] It would be the line immediately after ..

System.out.println("We got to here!" );

[2] Stacktraces.. what are they?

'because'. Please avoid these SMS style abbreviations,

Find out what Java version the browser is using.

Do not hold your breath Vinodh.

This is a discussion group, where you get comments and responses
as, when and *if* the other contributors feel like it.
'Awaiting solution' type comments are more appropriate to a
'help-desk', where you come to get your questions answered.

The reply from Andrew will help you clarify your problem. But you've
got some other troubles going on here as well.

Safari is available ONLY for Mac OS X. The MRJ 2.2.5 to which you refer
does NOT install in OS X, therefore it has no bearing on Safari. Just
what exactly is it you're trying to do?

In Mac OS 9.2 with MRJ 2.2.5, you can only do Java up to 1.1.8. Nothing
newer is supported, nor will it ever be. If you have an Oracle 9i
application, you probably should not be trying to make it work for
anyone using any Mac OS version before 10.2. Better still, go to 10.3
with the latest Java 1.4.2 Update applied.

In Mac OS X, the ONLY available web browser that uses the installed Java
environment is Safari. If you want to enable Netscape to use it, you
need to add a plug-in for that. And IE on OS X is no longer being
developed -- it's dead.
