Bug in Applet 0.2.6 - using different webserver

kwikone · Postby **kwikone** » Fri Jul 21, 2006 9:29 pm

When using a different webserver/page to host the applet it always gives an error indicating

"Err. Chk Host! Usr online?". Yet when going to the Yawcam server direct it works fine

.
To see this error go to http://www.vabid.com/Webcam.htm :!:

To see the Yawcam hosted page directly, go to http://komodo.ipupdater.com:8081/ :!:

If you check the Webcam.htm source you can see that it is identical with the other except for where the applet is loading from.

What now? Is it something that I didnt do, or do wrong?

==Added Info Jul 25===
The PC running Yawcam server is running Java J2SE 5.0 Update 4. Also you will notice I dont declare the http part in the CODEBASE. This is because when I do Java will not load the applet

I'm not sure what goes wrong here... But I can tell that kwikone has uploaded the YawApplet.class to the webserver, and that could probably make some browsers confused?

Delete the YawApplet.class from your webserver at http://www.vabid.com. The applet file shall be loaded from Yawcam via the CODEBASE tag.

This should at least be a first step in the error finding process.

Malun,

Actually, the server at www.vabid.com does not have the applet!!!
The code is as follows (view source to verify)...

Code: Select all

          <applet Code="YawApplet.class" CODEBASE="komodo.ipupdater.com:8081/" WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="240">
            <!-- <applet Code="YawApplet.class" WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="240">  -->
            <param name="Host" value="komodo.ipupdater.com">
            <param name="Port" value="8081">
          </applet></p>

The line with the  on it is an html comment and should not confuse browsers (I stuck it in AFTER I was having problems to see if loading from the server would work - commented the line above - but it gave the same error about being offline).

I know how comments work :wink:

I just typed www.vabid.com/YawApplet.class in the browser and found the file. That's why I suspected that the applet was located on the server.

Are you sure it's not there?

I have now removed all trace of the class from my web server.

The code I used is as follows...

<APPLET CODE=YawApplet.class CODEBASE="http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8081/" WIDTH="320" HEIGHT="240">
<param name="Host" value="xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx">
<param name="Port" value="8081">
</APPLET>

...where the xxx piece is the IP address of the system running yawcam

This just works!
Thanks for your pointers Malun

Yawcam
