Sun GlassFish Enterprise Server v3 Troubleshooting Guide

Description

The following error occurs from an application client, or appears in the server.log file:

java.security.AccessControlException: access denied
(java.util.PropertyPermission name write...)

There is a permissions issue in the policy files. Either the client.policy file for the application client or the server.policy file for server side components does not have permission to set the property.
