IIOP Thin client of WLS 8.1 running on JRE 1.5.0

[Olivier Deleze]

Hi all,

I have a JAVA thin client that is deployed via Java Web Start.

The client running on a Sun JRE 1.4.x VM works perfectly.

When the client is started on a Sun JRE 1.5.0, the folowing error ocured (when openning the connection to the WLS 8.1 SP3):

The same error occurs when I start the application from the command line.

Context.PROVIDER_URL=iiop://<server>:<host>

or for secured connection

Context.PROVIDER_URL=iiops://<server>:<host>

Does the JRE 1.5 is supported for the WLS 8.1SP3 client??

Thanks for your support in advance,
Olivier

No.

You should use the client from WLS 9.0 beta. It works with 1.5 and
will work fine against 8.1spx server.
