FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.4.1_02"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.1_02-b06)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.1_02-b06, mixed mode)
FULL OS VERSION :
Linux 2.4.20-xfs-backstreet-ruby SMP i686
EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
web server, which uses an expired certificate
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
If one tries to download an application via SSL and the server
presents an expired certifcate to Java Webstart (jws), jws
aborts the [download of the] application. E.g.:
NLPException[category: Download Error : Exception: javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertificateExpiredException: NotAfter: Wed Mar 03 15:09:18 MET 2004 : LaunchDesc: null ]
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1) configure your web server to use an expired certificate
2) try to launch your application
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
If jws encounters an expired certificate, it should leave the decision to the
user, whether to continue with or abort the [download of the] application.
We expect the same behavior as in almost any modern web browser (e.g. mozilla):
If the browser sees an expired certificate, it pops up a dialog, which gives
the user the chance to inspect the certificate and and allows the user to
continue or cancel the download of the appropriate file ...
abortion of the application [download].
