I am having trouble with the union college multivariable problems that make use of LiveGraphics3d. like for example union_problib/setMVlevelsets/levels-3/levels-3.pg I have set things up so that everything works fine from my office computer, which is a few years old and does not have all the latest versions of everything (Java Platform Standard Edition 6 Version 1.6.0 build 1.6.0_02-b06). However, the problem does not work in the big computer lab where my students work, and where they recently updated to all the latest versions of java and everything. Instead, the windows where the surfaces are supposed to appear receive an error message. The java details are below.
Does anyone have any ideas about how to fix this?
Thanks so much!

I don't know much about Java, but it looks like there might be some kind of security protocol in effect where the Java plugin will only run code that is "signed" (and so authenticated as safe?). This might account for the "unknown source" messages. On the other hand, that might just refer to the fact that the source code is not available, so it can't give you line numbers for the errors, or something like that.
None of this seems to be specific to the Livegraphics3D applet, so you might need to contact your IT support people and see what they can tell you.
You should also make sure you have the latest version of livegraphics3D (google it and download the latest one), just in case that helps.

Thanks for the help!
I verified that we have the latest version of live.jar in the course.
I also put up the livegraphics3d test pages, test.m:
and these do work on our server on all of our computers with the new version of java:
http://math.carroll.edu/test/test.html
So I know that the problem is not with the live.jar java archive. The problems work on the computer in my office which is running Java Platform Standard Edition 6 Version 1.6.0 (build 1.6.0_02-b06), however in the computer labs where they have build 1.6.0_15-b03, the problems fail. Could there be something in LiveGraphics3D.pl that needs updating for the most recent build of java? Has LiveGraphics3D.pl changed recently? Should I make sure that I have the latest version of it?
Thanks so much!

I don't want to lose the one place where I can confirm that things really can work. Last night I checked it from home, where I have 1.6.0_15-b03 and it did NOT work from my home computer. This verifies that the issue is not some weird security protocol that IT has set up on campus.
I have created a test account in the course. If you want to help me out, login here:
http://math.carroll.edu/webwork2/ma233_f09/
username/password: test/test
go to Homework09, problem3, and let me know what happens, whether it works or not, and what version of java you have. That way we can know for sure whether it is the java version, or something else.
Thanks so much!
