Java security warning - Block Editor #161

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
When I open the Block Editor application (Java Web Start Application - jnlp 
file) I get the following Java security warning:
"The digital signature cannot be verified by a trusted source."

Yes, I know that I can select:
"Always trust content from this publisher"
but it would be safe (and nice) if you signed this application a trusted 
certificate.

(JRE version: 1.6.0 update 21)

I get a "Warning - Security" message that sits there forever, so the Blocks 
Editor never opens. 
Any help?

plus, you have do download the software EVERY SINGLE TIME you want to run the 
blocks editor.

Yes, please do this. I've done it for many software companies and it is just a 
paper-pushing exercise to get the certificate. Not fun, but necessary. 
Especially for a company as big as Google.

Is there a work around with the java security settings to allow this to be 
installed.

An error occurred while launching/running the application.

I just installed App Inventor today, Dec. 3, 2012 on Windows XP SP3 with a new 
Java 7 installation that passes the "Notepad" test.  

Trying to open the Blocks Editor consistently gets me "Failed to validate 
certificate" and "Application will not be executed" from Java.  Under "Details" 
it starts with:

"sun.security.validator.ValidatorException: PKIX path validation failed: 
java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: 
java.security.InvalidKeyException: Wrong key usage"

I cannot use App Inventor until this is resolved.  How can I fix this, please?

Update: Success!

Based on other info, I removed Java 7 and replaced it with the older Java 6 
(currently still available) from the same website.  It works fine; successfully 
validates the certificate and runs the Blocks Editor.

Please, update certificate to work with Java 7
Downgrading java is not a reasonable solution.

Please fix the Expired Digital Certificate issue. I'd really like to learn from 
the App Inventor but I'm not prepared to pull down my pants and bend over.

USE FIX AT YOUR OWN RISK.

If you want the AppInventorForAndroidCodeblocks.jnlp
to run without the block screen popping up.
Go to the Java control panel.
Select the Advanced tab.
Scroll down to the Advanced Security Settings.
Uncheck - Enable online certificate validation
Click Apply
    Close Java control panel.
Start - AppInventorForAndroidCodeblocks.jnlp

I am also having this issue. My system has already thrown a fit about upgrading 
Java... I'm not about to downgrade it because the certificate might work on 6.

Please update this soon. I really would like to learn how to use the App 
Inventor.
