Launch web-application with javawebstart

Launch web-application with javawebstart

When you run a forms11g application that contains  unsigned jar files,  a warning message is shown preventing  you of the execution risk.

We are using java7 update 45 (build 1.7.0_45b-18)

Plate-forme (7.7) Product (1.7.0_45) from http://java.sun.com/products/autodl/j2se launched from C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\bin\javaw.exe

If you look at the formsweb.cfg file, you will see that more unsigned jar files are refered in the archive-tag,

# Forms applet archive setting for other clients (Sun Java Plugin, Appletviewer, etc)
archive=frmall.jar,FormsGraph.jar,jacob.jar,frmwebutil.jar,appicons.jar

When using java7, more restrictions are verified about jar kfiles containing nixed code

Because our jnlp file refers to the following unsigned jars-files, we have the warning bellow, (Unsigned-Jar – files refered in jnlp-file)

• FormsGraph.jar
• jacob.jar 
• frmwebutil.jar 
• appicons.jar

See the problem on metalink:

And the forms application is launched with javawebstart
