Java Security Team,

I've been trying to reproduce what was done on your example found at
http://java.sun.com/security/signExample/index.html, and I was
successfull in constructing my own signed jar file except that, when
viewed, I got the following Java errors with Netscape 4.06 w/ your 1.1
plugin:

(In the Java Console)
# Error: Invalid Hash of this JAR entry (-7882)
# jar file: C:\TEMP\jzip63E9.TMP
# path: writeFile.class
# Error: Strange PKCS7 or RSA failure (-7881)
# jar file: C:\TEMP\jzip63E9.TMP
# path: C:\TEMP\jzip63E9.TMP
# Error: loading of signatures has failed (-1)
# jar file: C:\TEMP\jzip63E9.TMP
# path: /

The Plug-in window does not come up, as it does with the example on your
webpage. I looked through the FAQs, but could not find a solution. Any
helpful feedback will be more than welcome.

Thank you for your time,
Doug Heitkamp
