Error description

  • Error Message: When Java security manager is enabled, the
    application will encounter the following permission error:
    'Access denied ("java.lang.RuntimePermission"
    "getProtectionDomain")'. The permission error occurs while
    formatting a message for NoSuchMethodException, and it causes an
    AccessControlException to be thrown.
    .

Local fix

  • This issue can be worked around by disabling the Java security
    manager. This approach should only be used if security features
    are not needed for an application.
    

Problem summary

  • When Java security manager is enabled, AccessControlException is
    thrown while formatting a message for NoSuchMethodException.
    

Problem conclusion

  • JVM has been updated to acquire the needed permissions while
    formatting a message for NoSuchMethodException. This prevents an
    AccessControlException from being thrown.
    .
    This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
       8    SR3 FP10  (8.0.3.10)
