Java
Dear Support Communitie,
I am having issues with Java in trying to establish a VPN connection, I am instructed as follows:
- open Apple menu > System Preferences... > Security & Privacy > General tab
- be sure 'Allow applications downloaded from: anywhere' is selected
- download and install Java
- open Safari Preferences, click the Security tab and choose "Manage Website Settings..."
- select Java on the left then https://name.edu on the right, select "Run in unsafe mode" in the pull-down
- open the Java Control Panel, select the Security tab
- add https://name.edu to the Manage Site List (whitelist)
I encounter the fist problem at step 5. where after choosing "Run in unsafe mode" I select "Trust" but nothing happens and the best I get selected is "Allaw Allways".
Even after step 7. everytime I try to use a Java application (from the website I listed in step 7.) I still get:
Do you want to Continue?
The connection to the website is untrusted
Website https://name.edu:443
I choose "Continue" but I have a Plug-in Failure.
Moreover when I try to test Java I am told:
"Application Blocked.
The application was blocked enven though the host site of the html file at: https://name.edu/.../... is included in Exeption List because the application refers
to resources on multiple domains.
The jpnl file https://java/en/download/.../... is on different domainand is not also included on Exeption Site List"
So I add https://java.com to the Exeption list. It recognizes my effort but Java applications stay blocked.
I hope someone can help, thanks very much in advance.
