This is a known issue in Java Plug-in 1.1.1. Because of the limitation of the Netscape Plug-in API, we were not able to obtain the filename of the document. Thus, calling AppletContext.getDocumentBase returns only the URL without the filename. Q: I’m having trouble installing the Java Plug-in on my Win32 machine. I see the error: “An application error has occurred and an application error log is being generated. Exception: access violation …” What might be the problem? A: The Win32 installation (using Installshield’s installer) may not work if you have Quarterdeck’s Cleansweep product running in the background.
