i have seen it now also with harjo's login

if i really show the console it works fine (all the time as far as i see)
but if i hide it (or not start it at all) then the calendar bean doesn't show up. I do see a difference in the trace log then. it doesn't touch suddenly a particular jar entry of the calendar bean (which i see being touched when it works right before we show the calendar)

i asked harjo to test something so that for example it2be-calendar.jar.jnlp jnlp file is changed a bit
so that all the jar references there has a "part" attribute.

Currently it says something like:

<jar download="eager" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar.jar" version="1362695051883"/>
<jar download="eager" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar/migcalendar.jar" version="1362695050597"/>
<jar download="eager" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar/ical4j.jar" version="1362695046675"/>
<jar download="eager" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar/commons-lang.jar" version="1362695044709"/>

maybe if we make it:

<jar download="eager" part="calendar" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar.jar" version="1362695051883"/>
<jar download="eager" part="calendar" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar/migcalendar.jar" version="1362695050597"/>
<jar download="eager" part="calendar" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar/ical4j.jar" version="1362695046675"/>
<jar download="eager" part="calendar" href="/plugins/it2be-calendar/commons-lang.jar" version="1362695044709"/>

then webstart really knows these belong to each other.

Johan,

Good to see that You really saw the issue.
Would this also explain why it sometimes misses the dbtreeview.jar bean ?

Because that is not included in any jnlp or ?

[jcompagner]

no, because that bean is really in its own generated jnlp file with just 1 entry
So my guess is that the above doesn't really work, but i just wanted it to try out
Some bean that are loaded can't be found maybe because they don't use the right classloader somehow. But how is that possible that there is a difference between showing or not showing the java console..

Then we encountered this:

https://forums.oracle.com/thread/2552941

thats in the core the same thing..

And i guess i can somehow fix this by setting the right classloader..

[jcompagner]

because i can't seem to reproduce it locally and i think i have a fix. But i like to test it, can somebody test 2 updated jars (j2db.jar and j2dbdev.jar) on there app server (i have currently 6.1.x jars, 6.0.x are cooking)

[Hans Nieuwenhuis]

If You need 5.2.x tested I can do it.

EDIT : I can also reproduce it in 7.1 so I can test that one too !

[Harjo]

the jar's for 6.0.x fails here... still the same issue, it2be calendar & dbtree missing, when the console is not shown....

[Harjo]

Johan has been working hard, last night. And we have fix now for Servoy 6.0.9

In both cases the calendarbean and the dbtreeview loads fine now with the latest Java 7 update 25, without openening the console

Thanks JOHAN!!

[Hans Nieuwenhuis]

Indeed : Thanks Johan, great job !!

Is this something Oracle changed without announcement ?

B.t.w. When can we expect updates for 5.2.x and 7.1.x ??

Regards,

[lwjwillemsen]

Is there a public Servoy case where we can follow the developments on this issue ?

[jcompagner]

Is this something Oracle changed without announcement ?

no this is a plain bug in javawebstart that oracle did introduce.
They set something wrong. (so i don't think they announced this )

B.t.w. When can we expect updates for 5.2.x and 7.1.x ??

i updated 6.0 and up.

and 6.1 and 7.2 will be released in about 2 weeks.

[Hans Nieuwenhuis]

Ok, thanks Johan

But what about 5.2.x ??

[Andrei Costescu]

JIRA Case: https://support.servoy.com/browse/SVY-4749
Java 7 is not supported in 5.2.x (case contains wiki link).

[Hans Nieuwenhuis]

Hi,

I did not realize that Servoy 5.2.x does not support Java 7, Servoy says it is in the Wiki.
We are planning to upgrade from servoy 5 to 7 in Q4 this year

But we have technical engineers who need the latest Java (7) version.
I could also have them install java 6, but they will have to start by using

Code: Select all

C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre6\bin\javaws.exe http://appserver:8080/servoy-client/servoy_client/solution.jnlp

Because if the start using a browser, the latest java will be used.

Am I right with this ?

I did not realize that Servoy 5.2.x does not support Java 7, Servoy says it is in the Wiki.

http://wiki.servoy.com/display/Serv52/Smart+Client does intentionally not list Java 7
