The client system used by an eSubmissions WebTrader end user is configured with JRE 8. This system automatically downloads unlimited strength JCE policy files from the Activator server to which it connects (if the files do not exist already exist on the client machine).
| Note | This download requires, as a prerequisite, that the appropriate Unlimited Strength policy files exist in the following folder of the CSOS licensed Activator server: |
.../Interchange/webapps/wtapplet/jcepolicy
The download of these policy files succeeds but, in typical WebTrader client configurations, the policy files cannot be copied to the local destination directory ...\Java\jre\lib\security and an "Access denied" error can be viewed by running a debug on the applet code.
The reason for the failure is that the JRE (by default) is located in the C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files (x86) folder which is write-protected by Windows User Account Control.
In normal use, there is no specific indication to the end user that the policy file download has failed to copy to the directory. However the standard message that the applet has not loaded yet persists with the mention to contact the administrator.
To view the progress of the policy down load you can open a Java console.
With the console activated, you can view details of the Unlimited Strength Policy download failure.
There are two options for avoiding this policy download failure:
With a Java console, open you should now be able to confirm the success of the policy download. The end user can proceed with trading activities.
