Inside my Applet, it needs to download the csv file from other site to run.
When i run applet with appletviewer, it gave me this exception :
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.net.SocketPermision www.xxxsitexxx.com:80 connect, resolve
....
My applet's signed :
jarsigner -verify myfile.jar >> the result : jar verified.
I tried to add :
grant {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};
into Tomcat's folder :
..conf/catalina.policy
But it didn't work.
Google suggests me to add security permisson to :
... jre/lib/security/java.policy
But I couldn't change it :
Access to ... jre/lib/security/java.policy was denied.
My question is :
Does add permission to java.policy solve to problem?
If so, how could I change java.policy's content?
PS : I read many questions here relate to my problem in Stackoverflow, but I couldn't find the right way to solve it.
EDIT : i got the Applet work by signing all jar files that needed to run with the Applet.

Using Eclipse Kepler (Windows 7) for a project which opens a ServerSocket on localhost, port 80.
I use a security manager with a policy file located at:
C:\Users\John\Developpement\workspace\security\my.policy
In Eclipse, for the project launch configuration properties, for VM arguments:
-Djava.security.manager
-Djava.security.policy=${workspace_loc}/security/my.policy
The bin file executed is (I use separate source and output folders in Eclipse):
C:\Users\John\Developpement\workspace\SocketApps\bin\TinyHttpd.class
In my.policy:
grant codeBase "file:\C:\Users\John\Developpement\workspace\SocketApps\bin\-" {
permission java.net.SocketPermission "localhost:80", "listen,resolve";
};
When running from Eclipse:
Exception in thread "main" java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.net.SocketPermission" "localhost:80" "listen,resolve")
at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:372)
at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:559)
at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:549)
at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkListen(SecurityManager.java:1134)
at java.net.ServerSocket.bind(ServerSocket.java:375)
at java.net.ServerSocket.<init>(ServerSocket.java:237)
at java.net.ServerSocket.<init>(ServerSocket.java:128)
at TinyHttpd.main(TinyHttpd.java:35)
when reaching code:
ServerSocket ss = new ServerSocket(80));
If I remove the codeBase filter:
grant {
permission java.net.SocketPermission "localhost:80", "listen,resolve";
};
the problem disappears, so I imagine this is the way the codeBase is expressed that is wrong.
I've tried the solution proposed for this question, but it doesn't work.
Can you help me?
Answering my own question since I found what was the problem.
Not sure if it is better to remove the question, it seems to me that keeping it would help other persons. Moderators to say.
Taken from Oracle documentation:
Note: a codeBase value is a URL and thus should always utilize
slashes (never backslashes) as the directory separator, even when the
code source is actually on a Win32 system. Thus, if the source
location for code on a Win32 system is actually C:\somepath\api\, then
the policy codeBase entry should look like:
grant codeBase "file:/C:/somepath/api/" {
...
}
This is a beginner mistake.
My problem is that program cannot read file (I also don't see pop-up permission window when it's loading!)
It's a JNLP file, in it I got (but still I don't see any pop-ups):
<security>
<all-permissions/>
< /security>
when I execute that file it download some data and run normaly but when I try to load file I get an error:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.io.FilePermission" (...) )
I tried to give permision through java system setting and I also tried to change policy files but still it doesnt work.
I'm trying to read a envrionment varaible from a applet, here is my code
String env = System.getenv("TWS");
System.out.println(env);
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
String s = env + "\\WebStart.bat " ;
System.out.println(s);
try {
Process p = rt.exec(s);
} catch (Exception e) {
}
when i run the code from netbeans by right click and run, it is running without a problem.
but when i put it to a jar file, add it to my web application and try to run it from a html page using the following code
<applet code="draw.class" archive='AppletTest.jar'>
<param name="shape" value="triangle"/>
</applet>
i'm getting a error saying access denied , java.lang.RuntimePermission
i am running this web application using tomcat 6.
i have read some guides and added the following entry to catalina.policy file in tomcat 6 and restarted tomcat
permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "accessDeclaredMembers";
but still the same warning. can some one please suggest a solution for this problem?

When you run your applet from netbeans, Java virtual machines runs it under a different security regime than when you run it through browser.
Applets, downloaded through browsers, that are not signed using a security certificate, are considered to be untrusted and referred to as unsigned applets. When running on a client, unsigned applets operate within a security sandbox that allows only a set of safe operations. You can check if a perticular permission is granted to you applet or not by using SecurityManager. For example in your case :
System.getSecurityManager().checkPermission(new RuntimePermission("accessDeclaredMembers"));
You can know more about applet security here and here. A very nice tutorial on making signed applets can be found here.
I want to execute a jar file with using policy file from my project. my policy file is:
*grant codeBase "file:///D:/xx/yy/zz/-"{
permission java.io.FilePermission
"D:/aa/bb/test.jar", "read, write, delete, execute";
};*
my project is under D:/xx/yy/zz/ folder and i want to execute test.jar in this project but i had an error:
access denied (java.io.FilePermission <> execute)
if i change policy file like this, that is ok:
*grant codeBase "file:///D:/xx/yy/zz/-"{
permission java.io.FilePermission
"<<ALL FILES>>", "read, write, delete, execute";
};*
But i do not want to give all permission to my project.
And also in project i set policy file like this:
String path="D:\aa\bb\test.jar";
System.setProperty("java.security.policy","C:\\policy\\"+"test.policy");
System.setSecurityManager(new SecurityManager());
Is there any body to say something about this situation ?
Thanks...
I think this "D:/aa/bb/test.jar" should be "D:\\aa\\bb\\test.jar"

It'looks a way more like a file system security problem than a java security exception, are you using windows or linux?
What kind of file system are you using ? ext2/3/4 or NFTS or fat32 ?
And most important, are you running your program with admin right, which might be necessary to grant execute permission on some files.
i'm having the the post's title error when trying to write a file on a window folder , mounted on unix system. I've developed a web service which runs inside a Tomcat 6 on a linux os and need to write on a windows network folder. System administrators have mounted it on the Linux sever and have no problem to create and modify a file on it.
When i try to execute the posted code i get the following exception :
Permission denied
java.io.IOException: Permission denied
at java.io.UnixFileSystem.createFileExclusively(Native Method)
at java.io.File.createNewFile(File.java:850)
The weird thing is that it seems to be related to the File.createNewFile method on a network folder , in fact the service can write on local file system without problems, both on debug (the pc i use to develop the service) and a tomcat folder system administrators have provided me on the linux server. The file gets created but is empty and the log entry following the create method doesn't get printed. Moreover if i use a plain outputstream to create and write the file i've no problems.
I cannot find any explanation about the exception on the web. Since i'm not very experienced with java , i'd like to understand why i'm getting this error. Am i using it in the wrong way ? Is it a bug of the library ? Do i miss to pass some parameter ?
As stated , i've solved the problem using a plain outputstream, this is a question to improve my understanding of java.
FileOutputStream fos = null;
try{
log.info(String.format("file length: %s",streamAttach.length));
log.info(String.format("check File : %s",filename));
File f = new File(filename);
if(f.exists())
...
boolean done= f.createNewFile();//here comes the exception
//nothing of the following happens
if(!done)
throw new NWSException("error creating file");
log.info(String.format("file %s creato", nomeFile));
thank you in advance for any answer
I ran into this problem recently and found that java.io.File.createNewFile() actually requires the "Change Permissions" permission (you can find this entry under Security->Advanced when checking folder permissions). Without this it will create the file and then subsequently throw an IOException.
It's deceptive because you will still be able to create files on the folder when manually testing, however createNewFile() will still fail if it doesn't have this particular permission (presumably such that it can change the permissions on the file its creating).
If you are using Netapp that shares an NTFS (CIFS) style filesystem to Unix you could be experience "NFS is not allowed to change permissions on a file in an NTFS-style security volume." (TR-3490 page 16)
Options here are to change to a unix filesystem or set the cifs.ntfs_ignore_unix_security_ops flag to on for the file system which quiches the NFS permission error.
java.io.UnixFileSystem.createFileExclusively(Native Method) opens the file with the O_EXCL and 0666 umask so I would get a EACCES, which really was a NFS3RR_ACCES
open("/net/storage01-a/filer/myfile", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0666) Err#13 EACCES
Also you can use OutputStream to create the file, that does not use O_EXCL it seemes
It definitely not Java specific problem. If this Unix folder is mapped to your windows try to open file explorer and create file in this directory. I believe that you will get permission denied too. In this case fix this problem or ask your system administrator to help you.
Good luck!
