I've a problem with Java applets.

I developed two Java applets for my application, the applets are signed with a certificate, include the MANIFEST file with permission and they run correctly. There is a problem when Oracle releases a new Java update and the applets don't work, it seem that IE look at the latest version of Java and I need to update it every time.

What can cause this problem?

  • *"i've a problem with Java applets. .. What can cause this problem?"* 'Applets' can. They are a maintenance nightmare when you factor in how browsers react to them. – Andrew Thompson May 19 '15 at 05:32
  • *"There is a problem when "Sun" release a new Java update"* They won't. Oracle now owns Java. ;) – Andrew Thompson May 19 '15 at 05:33
  • for George: for example I have updated the java 8.40 to java 8.45 and it's worked fine until the next Oracle release. – kaddhuzzu93 May 19 '15 at 11:44

Applets are all but deprecated. Your best bet is to migrate away from them, because more and more browsers are removing support from them.

If you need to enable users to upload files to your server, there are numerous resources and tutorials out there.
