Avoid Self-Signed JAR


I have been working on this for roughly 15 hours over the past week. I am trying to get a java applet on my website. It keeps blocking it. I have certified my website via StartSSL.com and my applet with jarsigner, but it still tells me that self-signed applications are blocked.

How can I make this not self signed, but signed by someone else? I don't want this to work on my computer...I want it to work on everyone's computer. I have followed about half a dozen tutorials, and still am unsuccessful. How can I go about getting my Java applet to be on my website in a manner that anyone can run it?


Solution

  • Turns out you have to pay hundreds of dollars per year to get code signed, and StartSSL.com does not sign code. DigiCert seems the best option at this time.
