I'm dabbling with JavaFX in NetBeans 8.0 and am trying to run a jar as a Java Web Start application. When I double-click on the HTML file created by NetBeans, I get: ====================================================================== Application Blocked by Security Settings Name: fxswingtest01.FxSwingTest01 Location: file:// Your security settings have blocked a self-signed application from running ======================================================================= What do I need to do to resolve this situation? I assume I need to give Java permission to run this application but I'm not sure how or where to do it and the tutorial I'm using didn't think to include this information.... -- Rhino

Or, also from the control panel, you can white-list various locations such as "http://localhost/", "https://localhost/", and "file:///". (You will get warning when adding http or file protocol URLs, but you can ignore those for localhost.) Or you can obtain a signing certificate and sign your code. -- Wayne

I've tried adding all of these entries to the white-list in the Security tab of the Java Control Panel: http://localhost/ https://localhost/ http://127.0.0.1/ https:/127.0.0.1/ file:///C:/Users/rhino_000/Documents/NetBeans/HelloWorld/dist/HelloWorld.html file:///C:/Users/rhino_000/Documents/NetBeans/HelloWorld/dist/HelloWorld.jnlp I'm running Windows 8.1. When I double-click on the HelloWorld.jar in File Explorer here on the laptop, the application launches just fine. When I right-click on the HTML file and open it in Firefox, the Test Page for HelloWorld shows a "loading" animation that just keeps spinning and spinning and spinning but never gets done. When I right-click on the JNLP file in File Explorer, I get the Web Start "Java ..." splash screen, then I'm back to the error message I reported in my initial post in this thread. Hmm. I just added the following to the white-list: file:// Now, when I right-click on the JNLP file and choose Open With Java Web Start Launcher, it actually launches without the error message! However, right-clicking on the HTML file and opening it in Firefox works no better than it did before. Just for the heck of it, I uploaded the whole dist folder to a remote server and tried to access the HTML page: I get the same error as I do on my local hard drive in File Explorer. When I tried to open the JNLP file on the remote server, the browser asked me which application I wanted to use and I chose Java Web Start Launcher and got this: ===================================================================== Application Error General Exception Name: helloworld.HelloWorld ExitException[3]com.sun.deploy.net.FailedDownloadException: Unable to load resource: file:/C/Users/RHINO_~1/AppData/Local/Temp/HelloWorld.jar at sun.plugin2.applet.JNLP2Manager.downloadResources(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin2.applet.JNLP2Manager.prepareLaunchFile(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin2.applet.JNLP2Manager.loadJarFiles(Unknown Source) at sun.plugin2.applet.Plugin2Manager$AppletExecutionRunnable.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) ========================================================================== Why is it looking for a resource on my hard drive when I'm running it on a remote server? How do I fix this? -- Rhino

However, right-clicking on > the HTML file and opening it in Firefox works no better than it did before. Web browsers often have difficulty with that. It has something to do with a confusion by the web browser if the resource is local or remote. Different internal URIs are used. I just run a local webserver, put my files in that, and use http://localhost/ to test 'em out. This avoids using file:// protocols. You can see if that's the problem by (temporarily) setting the security level to medium, and see if the problem goes away. If so, you just need to get the URIs in the white list correct. Note, Java DOES NOT (yet) support IPv6 for specifying security parameters such as this white-list. (I've asked.) Since all hosts default to IPv6 first, then fall back on IPv4, you may see your browser using "localhost", but Java won't notice that if IPv6 to localhost is tried (by the browser). In that case the IP address used to launch your Java app is "::1", not "localhost" or "127.0.0.1", and that will fail. You can try to always use the "127.0.0.1 value in your URIs, that may also solve your issue. -- Wayne

In fact, the white-list won't even ACCEPT file:// as valid; I get a red exclamation point and if I close it and come back, the file:// entry wasn't saved. >> >> Now, when I right-click on the JNLP file and choose Open With Java Web Start >> Launcher, it actually launches without the error message!

But doesn't that imply that I need to set up a server on my computer and then copy the files to that server? Or is there some simple way to use localhost to point to a specific file or directory on my hard drive that I've forgotten? I'm not coming up with anything like that in my Google search for localhost examples.... I should mention that I'm very rusty with some of this stuff. > You can see if that's the problem by (temporarily) setting the security > level to medium, and see if the problem goes away.

It's been a few years since I last messed with localhost and it's just not coming back to me clearly. Google isn't getting me to the right place yet either.... Sorry for being so dense! I really just want to be sure that I can get a trivial program using JavaFX to work both on my laptop and on a server before I start to put major time into learning how to write JavaFX code for myself. -- Rhino
