Error description

  • Customer is running an XPages application that uses Java
    "java.util.logging.Logger" to write the logic of the
    application and to log exceptions.To get the code running
    customer modified the the java.policy and added following lines
    to the grant section:
       permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "getClassLoader";
       permission java.util.logging.LoggingPermission "control";
    After upgrading the 8.5.3 Domino Server to Fixpack 5 it seems
    that the modification are not working any more and the error
    AccessControlExceptions is displayed.
        java.security.AccessControlException: Access denied
    (java.util.logging.LoggingPermission control)
        java.security.AccessControlException: Access denied
    (java.lang.RuntimePermission getClassLoader)
    
    Adding
     permission java.security.AllPermission;
    
           permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "preferences";
    
    everything works fine, but in the live environment  this is not
    a solution.
