Why isn't jnlp.jar signed by Sun?

The jnlp.jar in the developer pack is not signed with Sun's certificate. Why is that? An omission or intentional?
If I'm delivering my app signed with my Verisign cert, I have to now deliver jnlp.jar also signed with my cert, right?
Thx,
Max

The jnlp.jar is part of Java Web Start, so no - you don't have to sign and supply it, the JWS install takes care of it for you.
Cheers,
Gavin

Why isn't yahoo mail sign in page not loading from any browsers on desktop?

I am experiencing this problem from yesterday where the page stops loading when I click on yahoo mail. It stops right at the sign in page with a blank page, thus I am unable to access yahoo mail. I have tried different browsers and even different users, after clearing cache, cookies and internet history. I did notice I am able to access yahoo mail without any trouble from a different pc altogether and from a mobile device. I assumed the problem would be fixed overnight but it's still not working. I have never experienced this problem before. Please help. Thank you.

Why isn't espn yahoo Disney and apple store showing up I safari on my iPod touch

Why isn't my Apple sign ESPN Disney Yahoo signs showing up on my Safari on my ipod 5th generation

Check Safari tabs.
Open Safari then tap the tabs icon (two small boxes overlaid bottom right side of your screen).
See if Disney, ESPN, and Disney are there.

JNLP jar (re)download

Hello All ,
I might be having a fundamental misconception here ; if so , please help me put it right.
I have a JNLP file which is automatically generated (automatic here actually indicates that a script will populate a particular field in the file (which holds references to some jar files). The rest of the file does not change)).
I am using the <version> attribute of the <jnlp> tag to indicate the version of the application.
My expectation is that each time this version attribute changes , the .jnlp file wlil be re-downloaded and also will be re-downloaded each of the jar files it references.
Below is a representative code sample :
<code>
<?xml version="1.0"; encoding="utf-8"?>
<jnlp
spec="1.0+";
codebase="$$codebase"
href="$$name"
version="%VERSION%">

<information>
. 
</information>
<security><all-permissions/></security>
<resources>
<j2se version="1.6+"; initial-heap-size="32m" max-heap-size="512m" />
<jar href="my.jar";/>
<jar href="my2.jar";/>
<property name="property1" value="value1" />
<extension href="another.jnlp"; /> 
</resources>
<application-desc main-class="my.main";/>
</jnlp>
</code>
The following scenario is what I am trying to implement :
a)Deploy the jnlp application on a server and access it by using http://localhost:XXXX/myapp
b)It downloads and installs and runs.
c)I close the app.
d)I now change one of the jar files referenced in another.jnlp and also some contents in my.jar and my2.jar.
e)I now repeat steps a) and b) (the .jnlp files "version" attributes are updated accordingly)
EXPECTATION : The jnlp file is re-downloaded and so are all the referenced jars[of particular interest my2.jar and any referenced jars in another.jnlp].
OBSERVATION : The jnlp file is re-downloaded but the OLD jars are still being used (I know its the old jars because I change something in the jar on the server and the change is not reflected in the client browser).
If I clear the java cache by doing a "javawas - uninstall" , I get the behaviour I seek in EXPECTATION ; however I do not want to clear the cache everytime I update some jar or other ; I want jnlp to detect that a jar has changed and re-download it.
How do I go about achieving this?

Web start offers lazy downloads, as well as the DownloadService* (DS) to help with this kind of problem.
'Lazy' means the resource is only downloaded when needed, but using the DS offers even greater control, even to the extent of manually blocking a download - if needed.
* e.g. of the Download service, be sure to follow the links.

As far as 'signing' goes, I cannot imagine how that would help for your problem. Not only are signed Jar's (at least slightly) larger, but they can also be used by JWS apps. coming from other domains! If your app. is sandboxed, I strongly recommend keeping it as unsigned code.
Why is your JNLP file exposed to the general public? Don't the users have to log in before they can get to the page with link to the application JNLP?
If that is the case, the only chance for users who are not logged in to launch it, is if a friend sends them a direct link to the JNLP file.
As an aside, I generally do not have time to look at posts with no 'dukes' assigned (see links at upper left), if getting a solution is important to you, it is a good idea to add some.

Applets, Policy Files, jar signing, JNI, etc

Hi,
I need an Applet to be able to connect to sockets and use some JNI. Hence, as far as I can tell, I need to use a Policy File. In a standalone application, I have written my policy file tried it out by switching on the security manager. However I am not sure how I do this with an applet.
I have read many examples of Jar signing, yet every example uses appletviewer and the -J-Djava.security.policy to show the security policy in action.
However I want this to work through a normal browser, so how do I achieve this?
Do I specify a URL to the java.security.file in the embed/object/applet tags in the HTML?
Do I put the policy file in the jar and reference it via the Manifest?
Any ideas much appreciated,
John B

The standard AccessControlException:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.lang.RuntimePermission getClassLoader)
at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:270)
at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:401)
at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:542)
at java.lang.ClassLoader.getParent(ClassLoader.java:701)
Or something like that.
That's what I'm trying to solve, I wish to use the Java Security Policy system to allow my applet access to various resources, such as writing files. Now I've seen that signing an applet will give it full access (in my view, this is rather insecure, but anyway), however following the steps to sign an applet two or three times has still presented me with the same problem. The signing is ignored, and the exception is thrown.
Applet signing aside, I fail to see any documentation stating how the policy file is used by the VM when running on a browser. I assumed it might be an entry in the Jar's manifest file, but again, I can find no documentation.
It's all very annoying, and Sun have done quite a bad job at documenting this. For example, their example talkes about -D-Jjava.security.policy=.... being passed to appletviewer. Who on earth uses appletviewer! If policies only work with that, then they are useless. I want them to work with whatever browser the applet is being run within.
Surely this isn't too much to ask? :)

Where do you get jnlp.jar for Mac Leopard 10.5.5

Hello,
I am trying to use Persistence in JNLP on a Mac 10.5.5 with either 1.5 or 1.6. I have searched
my local disk the Mac developer web site and this website for "jnlp java Mac Leopard" no useful results.
Where can I get a jnlp.jar file that works on a Mac?
Rinaldo

I was able to get the question answered on the mailto:[email protected] list.
My friend http://www.google.com/search?q=jnlp.jar+mac+java&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t answered it.
Greg also provided some very useful information, especially the mdfind javaws.jar command
http://lists.apple.com/archives/Java-dev/2008/Nov/msg00052.html
I see that in JDK 1.5, javaws.jar is included. For now I will assume that the javaws.jar classes have been moved to javaws.jar

Jnlp.jar

Author: bonnaire
Hello,
I wanted to make an application usable through JavaWebStart technology, it
needs to
read and write files on the local disk so, as I have seen, I need the
FileOpenService and FileSaveService of the javax.jnlp API.
But I can't find jnlp.jar ! I use jdk1.4 and I have installed the latest javaWebstart
pack :
javaws-1_0_1_02-win-int.exe.
Can you tell me what have I missed ?
Thanks
Richard

The jnlp.jar can be found in the Webstart Developers Pack it is not part of the Webstart Client.
On the other hand if your application needs access to the disk you don't need those services. Signing your Jar Files and granting all-permission should do the trick

According to JSR 109, Section 7.1.1:
The webservices.xml deployment descriptor file defines the set of Web services that are to be deployed in a Web Services for J2EE enabled container.
And yet, no mention of this file appears in the JAX-RPC secton of the tutorial, and only two references to the file appear in a search of this forum. The only reference to thie file in the 2004Q4 Developers Guide on docs.sun.com is not providing any information about its use in 2004Q4 J2EE.
Why isn't it part of the tutorial content?
What takes its place?
If I provide one, will Sun's J2EE container honor it?

So are these my choices for building a war file that includes webservices.xml for deployment?
1) use deploytool
2) use wsdeploy
3) use pre-written webservices.xml in ant-based deploymentYour choices are 1 & 3. Many of our users don't like deploytool, but it is a good way of generating deployment descriptors. wsdeploy doesn't generate webservices.xml.
Third, If the documentation for sun's appserv ant
tasks contains information on how to make use of the
pre-written webservices.xml files, I could'nt find it.
I searched for the string 'webservices.xml'. Do you
have a link to where I can read about this?This is undocumented, but if you understand Ant tasks, you can fairly easily modify the tasks included in the J2EE 1.4 Tutorial. Specifically, look at the build files for <INSTALL>/j2eetutorial14/examples/jaxrpc/helloservice/.
I saw jaxrpc-ri.xml in the JWSDP sample war. wsdeploy
in 2004Q04 needs it too. Running wsdeploy on an input
war file that does not include 'jaxrpc-ri.xml' results
in this error for me:
java.io.FileNotFoundException:
/tmp/jaxrpc-deploy-71fe97/WEB-INF/jaxrpc-ri.xml (No
such file or directory)
wsdeploy does not complain that webservices.xml is
missing from the input war. This behavior of wsdeploy
started my suspicion that 2004Q04 does not honor
webservices.xml. Lack of mention of the
webservice.xml in documentation doesn't allay my
concern.These tools (wscompile/wsdeploy) were originally for the JWSDP and are distributed with the Application Server, but that doesn't mean the Application Server doesn't support webservices.xml. You can create a WAR file using deploytool, rather than wscompile/wsdeploy, that a) doesn't contain jaxrpc-ri.xml, b) does contain webservices.xml, and c) deploys and runs on 2004Q4.
The J2EE platform specifications require 2004Q4 to honor webservices.xml. JWSDP is not a J2EE server, and instead uses its own deployment descriptor. I agree with you that this is confusing, and I hope it will be addressed in future releases of the JWSDP and/or Application Server.

Why isn't my Apple TV not connecting to iTunes Store.
Was working fine this morning but now all of a sudden it won't let me sign in and connect. User name and password is correct! Never had any problems in the past. iPhone 5 is connecting iTunes but not my Apple TV??

Have you unpowered and restarted it?
