Re: Certificate Problem in Java 1.4.2 under 10.5.4

Thanks for the links. I am discounting the Sun forum issue as a different issue, as our signed JARs load correctly under 1.4.2 on Tiger. That issue also involved SSL, although the root cause exception seems to match. The hit from the list archive seems to be a match, although there were no responses to it. I guess I can "me too" it now.


Also of interest, in reviewing the logs kept by our QA folks, it appears that *some* 10.5 Macs can load the signed JARs in 1.4.2. I can say for certain that the Macs where it fails are all 64-bit systems with J2SE 6 (Java for 10.5 Update 1) installed. At least one of the two 10.5 iMacs where 1.4.2 loads our signed JARs is a 32- bit only system that has the Java update installed. I still need to check the second iMac -- I *think* its a Core-2 system, but have no idea if the Java update has been installed.

Looking again at the Google results the exception does seem to be sort of a catchall that comes up on different errors. It would be hard to believe the RSA modulus is actually in error and it doesn't always fail. It does seem to only involve Sun code and if I'm understanding correctly only relates to 1.4(.2?).
Here's another one with mac references...


http://episteme.arstechnica.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/8300945231/m/ 328002204931

including...

he tower - java 1.4.2, 5, os 10.4.11? (whatever was the latest for it) g4 733

macbook - 10.5.4, java 1.4.2, 5.0, 6.0

The error log is this (or atleast what the details button shows):

java.security.cert.CertificateParsingException: java.io.IOException: subject key, Unknown key spec: Invalid RSA modulus size.

It also considers PPC vs. Intel and J2SE 6 installed.
