Signed applet won't open video locally

in Integration and Hardware • 2 years ago

I'm following the directions here : http://wiki.processing.org/w/Sign_an_Applet to sign a couple .jar files so I can access a webcam through a browser. However, when I open the files in a browser locally (haven't tried online yet) I get a blank canvas. I'm running OSX 10.6.5, and happens with firefox, safari and chrome.

The signing seems to work fine for each .jar; I see the following in the terminal:

"applet shfitz$ jarsigner -keystore pKeyStore video.jar p5geek

Enter Passphrase for keystore:

Warning:

The signer certificate will expire within six months."

So!

Any idea why these sketches won't run in the browser even though they're signed (and I allow the application to run)?

Are you trying to load the page from localhost or by just opening the HTML file? In the latter case, there might be different security settings. Try online or with a local Web server.

Running on a webserver (local or remote) doesn't seem to make a difference.
