What Is The Runtime Error in Java?

Sun Microsystems created and designed Java as an Internet browser plug-in that permits smaller applications known as "applets" to reside in web sites and operate their web page. Basically, it helps websites host certain applications that the web page couldn't otherwise launch on its own. A good example of a Java applet is the "chat" function that you see on some websites.

The "Java Runtime Environment" allows the java applet to interrelate with Java software that is actually installed in your computer. At times, Java runtime errors can occur.

Java Runtime Error – What Just Happened?

If you received a Java runtime error it is probably because:

• The Java configurations are wrong
• There may be an error with the Java applet programming
• Changes were made to the settings
• There is a discrepancy in the version of Java
• Java is competing with your operating system for resources
• Incorrect authorization
