Hi, I am upgrading tomcat from 5.0.25 to 5.5.17. I have had to grant java.lang.RuntimePermission "getClassLoader" permissions to the codebase in WEBINF/lib because some of the custom defined filters in web.xml get the following exception:
SEVERE: Exception starting filter PasswordExpirationFilter INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission getClassLoader) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Unknown Source) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(Unknown Source) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(Unknown Source) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at java.lang.Class.getClassLoader(Unknown Source) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.findClass(WebappClassLoader.java:904) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1319) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoader.loadClass(WebappClassLoader.java:1198) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClassInternal(Unknown Source) INFO | jvm 1 | 2006/08/24 13:34:41 | at com.mycompany.manager.filters.PasswordExpirationFilter.<init>(PasswordExpirationFilter.java:237) I do not need to grant the getClassLoader permission in 5.0.25. Can some one explain why I need to do so in 5.5.17?? Thank You Regards Pritesh __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
