    Default Access Denied!

    Whenever I try accessing the appdata folder from my applet it gives me the following error:
    java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\users\<user name>\AppData\Roaming\test\test.class (Access is denied)
    Any help?

    Applets are not allowed to access files on the machine it is executing on.
    They can get files from the server they were loaded from.

    Can you explain in more detail what you are trying to do?

    I meant the applet viewer in eclipse.

    --- Update ---

    Also, I have heard that you have to sign your jar. I'm wondering how you do that.

    Ask google. Signing a jar is a multi-step process.

    See the tutorial: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutori...tFunction.html

    You were able to sign the jar file in 20 minutes?

    How do you use a jar file with AppletViewer?

    --- Update ---

    Also, what I understood from the link you gave me was you have to add the text:
    <script src=
    "http://www.java.com/js/deployJava.js"></script>
    <script>
    var attributes = {code:'<whatever>.class',
    archive:'<whatever.jar>.jar',
    width:710, height:540} ;
    var parameters = {fontSize:16} ;
    var version = '1.7' ;
    deployJava.runApplet(attributes, parameters, version);
    </script>
    to run the applet instead of the normal code.

    The applet does not have the permission it needs.

    I've never used JNLP. I've only used the <applet tags.

    Default Re: Access Denied!

    My applets that require permission are only executed on my pc. I use the .java.policy file to grant permissions.
    Here is a sample of my .java.policy file:

    grant {
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "modifyThread";
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "loadLibrary.HelloNative";
    permission java.util.PropertyPermission "*", "read";
    permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "modifyThreadGroup";
    permission java.io.FilePermission "E:/Java/Java-1_6_0/docs", "read";
    permission java.io.FilePermission "E:/Java/tutorial", "read";
    permission java.net.SocketPermission "127.0.0.1:3000", "connect, resolve";
    };

    grant codeBase "file:/D:/JavaDevelopment/Testing/WriteFile/-" {
    permission java.io.FilePermission "D:/Testing/*", "read, write";
    };
    I use the policytool to edit it. It is located in the user.dir folder.
