Code Signing Cert for AIR and MSI

If a Code Signing Certificate for AIR is purchased, can that same certificate be used when distributing the package using MSI?
Or does it not matter as long as the AIR app is signed?

No, this was a different problem that created similar symptoms.
I just found out that, since Director 11.5, we can put the Xtras folder inside a projector. I was relying on outdated documentation, both online and in my mind, which said the xtras had to be next to the projector.
Weirdly, putting the Xtras folder inside the Contents folder (inside the bare stub projector) solved the problem I was having: my sound was not functioning after I code signed the xtra that enables sound. Now it works fine.
I also created an error when my projector's INI file set Movie01 to a Director movie in the same folder as the projector. Now I have it instead point to a movie in the Resources folder of the projector. So maybe I will just throw all my movies and supporting files in the Resources folder.
I too am thinking of documenting the process, once I know customers are buying my app and using it successfully. Maybe I'll use screen recording to create a set of YouTube tutorials. That can spare others from this confusion and aggravation, and encourage people to buy the latest version of Director and update their old products. The more money that Adobe earns from Director, the more they will be encouraged to invest in developing Director further.
If Apple will accept apps without receipt validation, that will certainly simplify things. I saw an Apple web page that stated it was mandatory, but that page has been changed. Maybe validation is optional but no longer required.
For details, check this:
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/General/ValidateAppStoreReceipt/Intro duction.html
but luckily there is source code out there that can be used to handle those technical details.
I'm wondering how you applied your set of icons to your bare stub projector. Did you simply replace the projector.icns file? I created an error when I tried that.

  • Code signing cert error using Digicert - Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer

    Steps to fix this error on code signing adobe air using .p12 cert from Digicert - Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer
    a. Open Firefox and browse to https://www.digicert.com/digicert-root-certificates.htm
    b. On the middle of the page, download -
    DigiCert Assured ID Code Signing CA-1
    Valid until: 10/Feb/2026
    Serial #: 07:F4:73:6F:AF:EF:40:8A:1F:66:40:F2:65:D1:0A:C1
    Thumbprint: B170A10819BEA936905D719E643399783E1F4567
    Download
    c. Install the cert in Firefox
    d. Once done, export again the code signing cert from digicert, through (click Firefox -> Preferences -> View Certificates -> HIghlight the digicert code signing cert -> click Backup)
    e. Done, the newly exported file should now have the valid certificate chain and that should fix the error "Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer"
    Even though this is from Digicert, this should also work for other Certificate Authority providers assuming you download your provider's root cert for code signing.

  • InCommon Code Signing Cert not working in Profile Manager

    We acquired a Code Signing Certificate from InCommon for signing profiles, and it doesn't want to work with Profile Manager.
    In the Certificates section we have our working SSL cert for the web server, and self-signed SSL and Code Signing certs.
    When I try to import the p7s file it lists four non-identity certificates and then says that it can't be used as a code signing certificate. 
    Has anyone ever managed to get an InCommon code signing cert to work with OSX Server?

    Hello,
    In RFC SAP-OSS, i maintained my S-user id and its password.
    As already told my router connectivity and   SAPOSS rfc working fine.

  • About Profile manager renew code signing cert

    I am using the profile manager service in Mac OS X 10.7 Server.
    My code signing cert just got expired, and the serial no. is 1. So i followed the apple guide to renew the cert in terminal
    ipad:~ test$ sudo /usr/sbin/certadmin --recreate-CA-signed-certificate "ipad.example.com" "IntermediateCA_IPAD.EXAMPLE.COM_1" 1
    /usr/sbin/certadmin Cannot find the certificate: ipad.example.com
    I can renew the another one successfully but only this cannot renew, I don't know why (maybe related to the serial? too short?)
    Anyone know how to solve it?
    Thank you very much
    BTW, Any method can generate the cert for 10 years or renew the cert without re-enroll the device? because I don't want renew the cert every year and ask user enroll again.

  • Using internal SSL Certs for Webview and Reskill (ICM 7.2.X)

    Hi,
    I would like to use corporate ssl certs for webview and reskill to avoid the user having to install the self signed certificate on the local machine. Has anyone any experience of this? Can it cause any unforseen problems?
    My plan for webview is to create the certificate request in IIS for the default website, use this csr to generate the cert, then complete it by uploading the certificate.
    For reskilling, I will assume I will have to do some command line stuff here ...
    eg: keytool -genkey -keyalg RSA -keystore hostname.key
    to create the key,
    keytool -certreq -keyalg RSA -keystore hostname.key -file hostname.csr
    to create the csr, and
    keytool -import -trustcacerts -alias tomcat -file hostname.cer -keystore hostname.key
    to import the new cert
    Suggestions or comments for anyone who has tried this before would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Brian

    I've never done it on a version so old, but at the end of the day it's just IIS and Tomcat and importing an SSL cert is very standard.

  • How to use single sign-on  for BCC and Experience Manager

    Does anyone have experience in implementing single-sign-on for BCC and Endeca Experience manager for business users.

    With the older versions of Endeca commerce stack there is no OOTB support for this. However with Oracle Commerce 11, SSO with BCC and Experience Manager are out of the box. Oracle Commerce 11 is released today.

  • JWS gives 'failed to parse certificate' error for VALID code sign cert

    Hi,
    For my application, After downloading jar files from web server, JWS (1.2.0_02) gives a Security Warning asking user to trust the Signer.
    However, after clicking Start, it gives another Security Warning which says this:
    Warning: Failed to verify authenticity of this certificate because there was an error parsing the certificate. No assertions can be made of the origin or validity of the code. It is highly recommended not to install and run this code.
    STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
    Sign App jar files with a VALID code signing certificate from Thawte or Verisign (don't use DST or RSA or any other CA as JWS supports only Versign/Thawte root CA entries by default).
    Download the app using JNLP, and you will see this warning.
    EXPECTED -
    It should not give the second security warning. First one is fine as user has to trust the signer.
    There are no logs anywhere to find out what error it encountered parsing the certificate.
    The certificate as such is valid, it was verified with keytool, openSSL and various other tools.
    ACTUAL -
    After downloading an application from web server, JWS gives a Security Warning asking user to trust the Signer.
    However, after clicking Start, it gives another Security Warning which says this:
    Warning: Failed to verify authenticity of this certificate because there was an error parsing the certificate. No assertions can be made of the origin or validity of the code. It is highly recommended not to install and run this code.
    ERROR MESSAGES/STACK TRACES THAT OCCUR :
    Warning: Failed to verify authenticity of this certificate because there was an error parsing the certificate. No assertions can be made of the origin or validity of the code. It is highly recommended not to install and run this code.

    Hello,
    I had the same problem. Here are some additional things to check:
    - every jar in your app MUST be signed by ONE and ONLY ONE certificate.
    - every jar which is presigned should be checked on its own. I had a bad bcprov.jar which nearly drove me nuts. Maybe there are more such 'presigned' jars around.
    One recipe aside:
    Try halfing down the jars in your jnlp file further and further, until it runs again, then you'll probably find the jar which causes this. I would bet a specific jar.
    There's another Bug already known which makes JWS fail on checking the certs on jars with classes which have national characters (even Inner ones!). So you might be checking that, too.
    Hope that helps...
