[Bug 300254] Re: icedtea6-plugin: Facebook photo uploader applet fails to run: "No valid license key for current dns/ip address specified"

 

Intrepid Ibex reached end-of-life on 30 April 2010 so I am closing the
report.  The bug has been fixed in newer releases of Ubuntu.

** Changed in: openjdk-6 (Ubuntu Intrepid)
       Status: New => Invalid

Bug description:
This issue seems distinct from bug 258762 as the symptoms are different and I am running 8.10 rather than 8.04.  In my case, the applet loads correctly, and I am able to select photos from my local filesystem to upload, but when I click the "upload" button, I receive the error:

"No valid license key for current dns/ip address specified. If you see this message contact site administrator."

This doesn't look like an error from the plugin; I assume it is from the applet itself in response to an error condition.

This symptom has been reported in the forums and in a Facebook discussion thread as well:
