EBS 11.5.10.2 applet not working in Win 7

If you had EBS 11.5.10.2 with JDK 1.4_02 and if you were using Win XP, it may not work anymore after support for Win XP has been removed.

To make it work, there are two solutions:

• Run EBS 11.5.10.2 in XP mode on Win 7 (uses Jinitiator)
• Upgrade JDK to latest version

Option 1. Run EBS 11.5.10.2 in XP mode on Win 7 (uses Jinitiator)

Download and install XP Mode on Win 7 using the following URL:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/install-and-use-windows-xp-mode-in-windows-7
Follow all the steps as mentioned.

• Once installed, open the XP mode.
• Connect to SSL VPN in the new VM (XP mode)
• Connect to http://<domain_url>:<port#> and login
• Go to some responsibility
• Click on some link that opens an applet
• It will take a while and ask you to install Jinitiator (oajinit.exe)
• Once installed, applet will start working.
