perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Nina Jeliazkova <>]

Dear Jen-Wei Hu ,

The jars in a single jnlp file needs to be signed by the same certificate.  The perfsonarUI jars are signed with my Thawte certificate.  The options for another JWS distribution are:

1) resign all jars with your certificate ( bouncy castle jar is an exception, it should stay signed with its certification).
2) configure jnlp to use different certificates

To add jars with a different certificate, you would need to create another jnlp file and configure it as an extension in the main jnlp file.  This approach is used to integrate Bouncy castle jars (bc.jnlp).

    <extension name="BouncyCastle" href="bc.jnlp"/>

You could have a look at https://svn.perfsonar.net/svn/perfsonar/branches/perfsonarui/jnlp , these are the configuration files used for the JWS at http://perfsonar.acad.bg

Hope this helps,
Nina

Dear Nina,

 

Could you kindly give us the steps that we could use the web start to integrate our plugin on the perfSONAR-UI ?

Thanks a lot

Dear Nina,

 

The plugin that we developed have to use the jgraph.jar and our plugin jar named plugin-correlation.jar.

Thanks!!

Java web start always complaines to me about some jar files must be signed. I had re-signed these jars but it was still useless. Would anyone give us some advices to solve this problem ?
