JApplet: Never prompted to trust the install. It takes them right to to the error message

47 Views Asked by At

I have been trying to create a self-signed jar. I have embedded it on a website. However (this may be a Windows-specific problem), when the applet loads, this pops up: "Your security settings have blocked a self-signed application from running." According to every scrap of documentation I can get my hands on, I am supposed to be prompted as to whether or not I want to trust this application. This is embedded in GameJolt's website, so there is no HTML code to be posted. My META-INF folder contains a .MF, .SF, and .DSA file. Do I need anything else?

You must be getting old scraps. In recent times, Oracle decided to raise the security level so self-signed apps. were no longer acceptable.
