Settings for sandboxing Java via Sandboxie?

Wondering what settings to use. When I load up java it crashes.

 

Java 6 or 7?

 

Java 7. I've tried giving direct access to the entire C drive just to narrow it down - still crashes.

 

What exactly are you trying to do with Java? I know you've worked with sandboxing it before, are you doing away with the Comodo sandbox and putting it under SBIE now? What are you trying to restrict it from doing? I've got mine set to only run and access the net, I haven't fooled with restricting it further and have never had an issue.

 

Yes, I'm doing away with Comodo's manual sandbox. I may do away with Comodo entirely but we will save that for another topic =p

I'm trying to restrict it however possible. I jus tdon't know why it's crashing.

I haven't restricted it AT ALL yet. Fresh sandbox. It has FULL access to the entire c:\ and I haven't added any start/run or internet restrictions.

 

Is it the "java has been cancelled" (not quite what the actual message says, but you get the gist) error? That's been happening to me for the last couple of releases, but it's very random and I have no clue what causes it. If it's something different, I still don't know. Experimental protection maybe? If you have restrictions on run/internet with other programs in that sandbox, you have to add the java processes too, or it won't run at all. Iirc, you need java.exe, jp2lau, and jp2launcher allowed to run and access the net (I use Java 7). Other than that, I just don't know, Hungry, sorry.

 

No, the plugin just flat out crashes. I have no restrictions on it.

Are you using Chrome or Firefox?

EDIT: I'll have to use Comodo in the meantime.

 

Firefox.

 

It is possibly a Chrome issue.

I'll just have to use Comodo.

 

Have you popped over to the SBIE forums? Java is still outside the sandbox of Chrome, isn't it?

 

Yes it is. Chrome does nothing to sandbox Java that I know of and I'm not sandboxing Chrome with Sandboxie.

 

If Java is installed on your system, when you run your browser on either
a default/restricted sandbox, Java should work when called upon. If the
browser is run on a restricted sandbox, allowing Javas processes to
start/run/connect is all that's needed.

I know. I don't want to sandbox Chrome.

 

Wait, so you're running Chrome outside, but you've set up a box for Java? So basically when you surf to a site that needs it, you're wanting Sandboxie to run Java, but not the browser? I wasn't aware SBIE could even work that way. Consider me stupid when I say this, because frankly I am stupid when it comes to processes and how they interact, but wouldn't that cause a conflict, since, I thought Java has to interact with the browser?

This is me just tossing guesses out there.

 

It works when I sandbox JUST Java with Comodo and not Chrome as well. If I sandbox both Chrome and Java I get problems.

 

Okay, that's weird. When I did run Chrome, (really not that long ago, v12) I ran them both in the same box conflict-free. I have no idea what is wrong.

 

I can run them both in a sandbox no problem. I don't want Chrome sandboxed though.

 

You just said above when you sandbox them both, you get problems. Either I'm too tired and am not reading you right, or you're becoming forgetful Either way, I just don't know what to tell you about it. I've no clue why Java would be acting up like that.

 

No no, with Comodo I can only sandbox Java. If I sandbox both (each gets a sandbox) it breaks. With SandboxieI can sandbox both in one sandbox and it's fine.

 

Ahh, so Comodo is acting up then..perhaps, lol.

 

Sandboxie is working as its supposed to.

If you have Java installed on a sandbox(Java sandbox) , when you run
your browser out of the sandbox, Java wont do nothing.

>_> no, Comodo isn't involved haha. I was just saying that I'm going to use comodo until I figure out why sandboxie is broken since Comodo works.

 

How does Comodo do it then?

 

Okay So we're back to my thoughts on Java needing to interact with the browser, and Sandboxie preventing that. I'll either learn a good deal in this thread, or I'll get a headache

 

Comodo and Sandboxie work differently.
