[Omnipresent]

Hi,

I am using Sun App Server 8.2

When i try to add spring.jar file in server class path and deploy my application I am getting the following error in my server log file

Exception sending context initialized event to listener instance of class utils.ApplicationInitializer
org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'UsageIfaceDAO' defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/classes/spring-for-ibatis.xml]: Instantiation of bean failed; nested exception is java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission getClassLoader)

could someone please guide me as to how I can add spring.jar to my server's classpath?

When i take out spring.jar from the classpath then I can deploy the application w/out any problems.

nevermind..needed the following in servers server.policy

grant codeBase "file:C:\\<your-file-name>" {
permission java.security.AllPermission;
};

Hi,

What should be placed for <your-file-name>? Can someone give an example? I am very new to the permission settings for sun server, so appreciate any help. Thanks.

When I change the permissions on the tomcat server and restart it, it resets the Catalina.policy to remove this permission code that i added. How can i make the change permanent?

I found out the problem. I had to change the policy in /etc/tomcat6/policy.d/04webapps.policy, where as I was changing it in the /work directory catalina.policy file which get recreated from the this webapps.policy file every time i restart the tomcat server.
