Description

Name: nt126004			Date: 09/04/2002


FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.0"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92)

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Java Web Start throws a JNLPException when a signed jar
file is corrupted in the
com.sun.javaws.security.SigningInfo.checkSigning() method
with the "Missing signed entry" error message. This
message is not enough explicit: the failing entry should
be included.

Notice the jarsigner verification is ok, and I cleared the
javaws cache. Also my classes are obfuscated and i used a
self signed certificate using default crypto algorithm
(SHA1) for the application obtain all permissions as
required in the JNLP file. The manifest.mf and jar files
looks ok, but it's not easy to see "by hand" due to the
consequent number of entries.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1.sign a jar file
2.deploy it to a web server
3.click a jnlp file and attempt to load the application
through Java Web Start.
