Sandro Martini commented on PIVOT-920:
--------------------------------------
Note that even without changes in our build (to include new attributes in the
manifest inside any jar files, and use the signed version of jars, etc) a
workaround is to add http://pivot.apache.org in Site exception list under the
Tab Security in the Java Control Panel (at least in Windows).
Finally, check if it makes sense now to use in Tutorials and Demos the unsigned
version of our jars (and copy inside generated war files) ...
Note that the signing certificate that we use is self-signed so I'm not sure we
could resolve this issue without some help from Infra. After some small local
changes (but still not committed) Applets doesn't work because updated JRE 7
block them.

> Key: PIVOT-920
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-920
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: project, site
> Reporter: Sandro Martini
> Assignee: Sandro Martini
> Fix For: 2.0.4, 2.1
>
>
> As seen here (
> https://blogs.oracle.com/java-platform-group/entry/new_security_requirements_for_rias
> ), we have to update our jars or users won't be able to run our
> Tutorials/Demos from the Web Site ... and even when running from related war
> files in our distribution.
> Note that for signed jars we have only a self-signed certificate, so we have
> to check with ASF if it's something that could be handled at Infra level
> (from a Build Server, or something that takes released jars and sign them
> ...). Note that the same apply even with pack200 version of our jars.
> Maybe a related issue for INFRA could be useful ...
> Some discussions here:
