Package: java-common
Version: 0.33
Severity: normal

Hello,

I am quite sure that this bug report does not belong to "java-common", but because it affects all my Java programs I reported it here.

Since installing the package updates yesterday networking in Java programs is not working anymore. For example Eclipse (installed manually, not as Debian package) gives me:

Dec 9, 2009 9:39:26 AM org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector executeWithRetry
INFO: I/O exception (java.net.ConnectException) caught when processing request: Network is unreachable
Dec 9, 2009 9:39:26 AM org.apache.commons.httpclient.HttpMethodDirector executeWithRetry
INFO: Retrying request

Other Java programs (I can name JabRef and Hudson) have the same problem (they also report "Network is unreachable"). Other programs (for example Iceweasel, Kontact, reportbug) have no networking problems. I am using the "sun-java6-*" packages. But because they were not updated yesterday I suppose there is another reason for this problem. Maybe the update of "netbase"? Perhaps you can give me some hints how to inspect this problem.

Kind regards,
Benjamin

Hi,

I've run into the same problem. Java seems to be unable to access the
network.

Java applets don't work because the plugin can't download the jar files
of the applets.
Netbeans can't download any updates.

I've tried several version of Java downloaded directly from sun. These
all had the same problem, so I guess it's not in the Java packages.

I've tried several browsers, including firefox downloaded from
mozilla.com, after purging iceweasel and xulrunner. All show the same
symptom.

All other programs have no connection problems.

I have no clue where to look next.

Regards,
Hylke

Yes, looks like it. Not sure which JRE you use, but it affects both
OpenJDK and Sun.

Cheers,
