"Jinitiator" for Linux-Client

36260Dec 8 2002 — edited Apr 6 2005
Hi,

Oracle will not certify a Jinitiator Version for Linux.

So if you want to install Sun's Java Runtime Environment on Linux for Webforms

- What is to do?

Client: Red Hat Linux 7.3, Netscape 7.0

1.) I installed the JRE 1.3.1_06 for Linux from Sun's Website ( it works with netscape 7.0
and <Applet ... /Applet> call)

2.) Our Formsserver starts in HTTPS-connectmode. In Sun's JRE
the Oracle Java SSL Libraries are missing.

- Where can I get the right version of the files for Linux?

javax-ssl-1_2.jar
jssl-1_2.jar
libnjss18.so

, to copy those files in the Sun JRE Client installation ?

3.) For https you must copy the certdb.txt into the clients
Java_Plugin_home/lib/security directory.

4.) Netscape 7.0 asks you if you are trusting the Webforms-Applet,
so i think you do not need to install manually the Developer Certificate.

5.)
- What is missing?
- Do you have to add something in the java.security file?

Look at the errors below:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /usr/java/jre1.3.1_06\lib\security\certdb.txt >>>
seems to be a clear error - message.

But the certdb.txt is in the directory.

- I do not understand why there is a 'wrong' directory path : /.../jre...\...\
with slash and backslash on Linux?


6.)
My last hope is Sun's JRE 1.4.1...

7.)
Any comments and experiences migth be helpfull - send it to:
schaup@zid.tu-graz.ac.at


I got following errors:

here i used the
javax-ssl-1_2.jar
jssl-1_2.jar - files
and
libnjss18.so
from an Oracle 8 DB for Linux
