Re: unexpected EOF on client side when Apache sends applet class

Can you wget the applet file?

Apache 2.2.4 on Slax Linux, clients are win 2000 and win 98 with 

Mozilla an IE

I'm trying to get Apache on a Slax Linux machine to serve an applet to 

a browser on a Windows PC.

The html loads and displays; the applet is a simple 'hello world' app 

that runs in appletviewer fine. html and class are in the htdocs 

directory. hppd.conf was edited to allow to all.

The PC requests the html, Apache delivers, ack, ack etc. PC requests 

helloapp.class, Apache responds, but the PC shows errors in Java 

Console and the applet does not run (applet notinited).

errors:
load:class helloapp not found.
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: helloapp
    at ......
    at ...
Caused by: java.io.IOException: unexpected EOF
   at ...

The tcp packet returned by Apache is:

0000  ...v.".....e..E.
0010  .t*I@.@........
0020  ..P.(....C"..P.
0030  ..xv..HTTP/1.1.2

0110   nt-Length:.532..
0120  Keep-Alive:.time
0130  out=5,.max=100..

The packet is 372 bytes but it says the Content-Length is 532

This and the error suggest that the actual applet class is not being 

included in the packet.

I'm new at this, so it may be something very simple. I did get it to 

work the other night after adding codebase="." to the <applet> part of 

of the html code. But now it's not helping. I feel I must have changed 

something in the Apache configuration.

I tried searching the archives, but it doesn't seem set up well for 

searching - am I missing a search link somewhere?
