Oracle Identity Manager XML Import failure with IE 7.x

If you have been trying to import connector xml files and were unsuccessful with IE 7.x, that is due to the fact java policy now explicitly needs a File Read Permission. Here are the steps to make it work:

Windows ->Start -> Run -> policytool



File Open -> {Your JRE Location}/lib/security/java.policy

Select CodeBase

Hit Edit Policy Entry

Add Permission

From the Permission dropdown - select FilePermission
From the Target dropdown - select or target
From the Actions dropdown - select read



Hit ok, Done and File Save.

This should resolve your issue.
