Hi , While trying to launch an application using webstart i am getting the above error. The application is trying to write a log file named "client.log" in the client machine. What is the solution for this problem? Waiting anxiously for your replies, Srinivas

hi srinivas, is it ur application? i mean did u write it? OR is it some third party tool? if it is ur application then u have to sign the jar file for the application used via webstart as WebSTart code follows similar "SandBox" model as applets... if it is third party application u can contact the tech support if they have or contact the person who wrote it ... regards maulin
Thanks a lot for ur reply... The application is written by me only.... I have changed the security settings of the computer where i am trying to download by the help of "policytool" ., gave the permission for java.io.FilePermission ... It worked !!! But i dont think this is the solution... Since it is very difficult to change the permissions in every client machine... I think the signing of jar is required... I dont know what is signing and how to sign the jar giving the permissions required.... If you have time can you please brief me in this area?? Regards Srinivas
