Bernhard,
There could be many causes for it not working properly. Possible
things you should check:
+ Are you using Netscape? If so, Netscape currently does not
verify our Javakey generated signed jar file
+ Are you trying to create signed jar file using javakey with
JDK1.1.4 or before on a Windows System? If so, there is a bug
that has been fixed for it in the later releases
+ Have you successfully downloaded jar file? i.e. Is the file bytes
still the same? It should be 3158 for signedWriteFile.jar.sig
+ Have you set JAVA_HOME and CLASSPATH to point to the correct
jdk?
You can also check our Q&A on the javasoft security web site at:
http://java.sun.com/security
Hope it helps,
Gigi Ankeny
