Webstart no longer works after update from Java 7 Update 67 to Java 7 Update 71/72

2780874Oct 23 2014 — edited Oct 23 2014

Hi,

We have an application that is launched via Webstart.  Last year, we had to make a bunch of changes to the application in order to work with Java 7 Update 45.  It has been working fine up to and including Java 7 Update 67.  However, it is no failing with Java 7 Update 71 and 72.  Upon launch it is giving the error below. I have searched online and found other articles related to the AccessControlException but they are about 7 years old.  I also tried adding this to the java.policy file with no luck.  Any ideas or help would be appreciated to determine what I can do to get this to work for update 71.

java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.util.PropertyPermission" "eclipse.exitcode" "write")
