Webstart omits cookie, resulting in EOFException in ObjectInputStream when accessing Servlets?!
- by Houtman
Hi,
My app. is started from both the commandline and by using an JNLP file.
Im running java version 1.6.0_14
First i had the problem that i created the Buffered input and output streams in incorrect order. Found the solution here at StackOverflow . So starting from the commandline works fine now.
But when starting the app using Webstart, it ends here
java.io.EOFException
at java.io.ObjectInputStream$PeekInputStream.readFully(Unknown Source)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream$BlockDataInputStream.readShort(Unknown Source)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readStreamHeader(Unknown Source)
at java.io.ObjectInputStream.<init>(Unknown Source)
at <..>remoting.thinclient.RemoteSocketChannel.<init>(RemoteSocketChannel.java:76)
I found some posts regarding similar problems;
at ibm.com - identifies cookies problem
at bugs.sun.com - identifies problem as solved in 6u10(b12)?
The first suggests that there is a problem in Webstart with cookies.
It doesn't seem to be acknowledged as a proper java bug though..
Still i am a bit lost in the solution provided regarding the cookies.(ibm link)
Can anyone expand on the cookie solution?
I can't find information on how the cookie is generated in the first place.
Many thanks.
