Local fix

  • One of the following option can be used to work around this
    issue:-
    .
    1.Using Manifest file :
    Use "Trusted-Library Attribute" in the manifest files of signed
    application jars. Details available at
    http://docs.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/mixed
    _code.html#manifest
    .
    2. Using Java Control Panel :
    In the Java Control Panel, click on the Advanced tab.
    Expand the Mixed code (Sandboxed Vs. trusted) security
    verification option under the Security section. We will see the
    four options under this.
    Enable the second option i.e. "Enable - hide warning and run
    with protections".
    .
    3. Using deployment.properties file:
    Add the following property in the deployment.properties file -
    deployment.security.mixcode=HIDE_RUN
    .
    4. Use Mozilla browser instead of Internet Explorer
    

Problem summary

  • The hang is due to security validation occurred before the
    applet initialization is completed in the IE environment.
    

Problem conclusion

  • This defect will be fixed in:
    6.0.0 SR15
    6.0.1 SR7
    .
    The JDK has been updated to avoid the security validation till
    the applet initialization is completed.
