Problem Note 53163: Launching SAS® Model Manager using Java Web Start fails with a "Do you want to run this application ...", "Signed JAR resources ..." security warning

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

If you try to launch SAS Model Manager using Java Web Start with Java Runtime Environment 1.7.0_45, 1.7.0_51 or 1.7.0_55, you receive a security warning:

image label

Do you want to run this application?
Name:  Signed JAR resources
Running applications by UNKNOWN publishers will be blocked in a future release because it is potentially unsafe and a security risk.

If the Java console logging is active, the following text is displayed in the console:

To enable Java Web Start Console logging and to verify the Java Runtime Environment that your browser uses, see SAS KB0036243, "How to enable logging when SAS® Enterprise Miner(tm) is launched from Java Web Start (JWS)."

With these versions of Java Runtime Environment, the property handling for the Java Web Start JNLP file changed. The change causes a problem when you launch SAS Model Manager.
