I see the URL https://127.0.0.1:7779 is in the error. Are you accessing Webmin on the same system that your browser is on?
Yes, I was conected in the same machine, but the error is the same if I am conected in another machine, I used it because is more simple to copy and paste the error msg .
Does it make any difference if you turn off SSL in Webmin, at Webmin -> Webmin Configuration -> SSL Encryption.
Somethin odd just happened .
After the problem, I downgraded to 1.480, then, to try if disabling ssl makes difference, I upgraded to 1.488 again, and this time the applet runs OK .
To confirm, I get another machine, installed for first time the 1.488, and there is the problem again, with or without ssl .
Then, I downgraded to 1.480, everything works fine, then upgraded to 1.488 again, and again the applet runs .
Maybe something in the install scripts ?!?
All 2 machines where Debian Lenny, installed from scratch .
All downgrades and upgrades where made with dpkg command .
That is odd, as SSL and the file manager have not changed since 1.480.
I have seen cases where Java doesn't accept Webmin's self-signed cert though.
Hi, Jamie! I have the same problem, but with 1.480. When I enable SS the java applets don't work anymore.

I'm using my own certificates signed by cacert.org, and I've added the CACert's root CA key to Java and to Firefox.
I have exactly the same issue. It started with 1.488 and continued with 1.490. Happens in both Firefox 3.5.3 and IE 7 with JRE 1.6 b15. Happens on all servers and with and without SSL enabled. Downgrading to 1.480 or 1.485 fixes the problem with all servers.
Anything else you would like me to check?
If you re-download and install the 1.490 version, this will be fixed.
i am seeing a similar problem, but i think the root cause is that the .class files for the filemanager are missing from the 1.490 rpm file. if i do an rpm -ql webmin i see the .java files, but not the .class files in the /usr/libexec/webmin/file directory.
i just did a yum reinstall and the .class files are now there. why wasn't this redone as 1.491 or something? replacing a package with the same version but different contents is a really bad thing to do :-(.
Does it make any difference if you turn off SSL in Webmin, at Webmin ->
Webmin Configuration -> SSL Encryption.
=======================================================
it works,I can use filemanager now !
thank you!
