Topic: Using Java on E-Smith

[Mike Stoddart]

I've installed the JRE RPM onto my ESmith server, and all seems well. I also installed a Java based ftp client on the server, accessed via an ibay. When I open the html file that contains the Java applets, nothing happens in the browser. I know nothing about applets, so any ideas what to do next?

Thanks
Mike

Hi,

Java applets (as opposed to Java Server Pages) are purely dependant on the client and as such, do not require any Java handling capabilities on the Server (outside of  having the correct path details etc.)

I'd suggest checking what, if any, error messages are displayed in your web browser  when trying to access the page. Some browsers offer limited Java logging which may provide some clues.

As for JSP stuff... Sorry, I can't help you.


Regards,
Luke
