PropertyPermission in Web Start Application

Hi,

I have an application that is distributed by JWS. It allready runs fine since years. So signing and other security setup should be ok.

However there is one machine thats causing a PropertyPermission user.dir read when trying to open a file browser.

After some investigation I recognized that it has something to to with the Preferences-API/Windows Registry. When I clean all registry keys related to the preferences all works fine. As soon as I store anything in the preferences using the Preferences-API the exception appears.

The system is a Win2k/SP4 box. It seems as if this belongs to all users even the local administrator.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Alex

If program tries to read preferences using the pref api, then perhaps there is no problem on most machines where user has stored no preferences, but when it first runs on a machine where there are stored preferences, it gets a security error reading them.

Can you give us the full stack trace to the exception you are getting ?
