Java broken with new update?

[legaleye3000]

Yesterday I was alerted to a new update for Java. I installed it and now JAVA doesn't work on this site I always use for work. Is this happening to anyone else? Any ideas on how to fix? Help please. Thanks.

Did you restart your browser after installing the update? Have you tested whether Java works on other sites? What happens if you visit http://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp ?

That site works...

I have rebooted a couple of times too... Just this one site for my work doesn't work anymore!

Java 7 Update 51 blocks all unsigned applets. You need to manually whitelist them in the Java control panel.

That worked! THANK YOU ! ! !

Now if they would just add Chrome for compatibility....

That's up to Google, to make Chrome 64-bit

This sort of thing fills me with joy. I'm glad they're finally making it hard to use Java applets; hopefully this means companies will stop deploying them. They have always been a big security concern, don't work well on mobile devices, etc...

Good riddance!

I do hope you can fix your specific problem though.

Update 51 broke all sorts of stuff I use at work. After I figured out what they did, I had to add a bunch of exceptions to the security list on all of the clients on the network. What fun.

it blocked access to java's website as well on mine
Its all well & good manually updating but how do you find the url i.e. http or whatever when nothing before www is shown?

The update added a new file to the /Library/LaunchDaemons/ folder
