Hello,
We have a Vision app on server and we can´t open it from that server and we getting this message, we cant open it from somewhere else.
Also this app is inestable for some users, sometimes they can connect, sometimes can´t, may be related with this issue.
Application blocked for security
The certificate could not be validated.
The application will not be executed.

Any idea on how to fix this problem welcome.
Cheers!
This can be handled by adding an exception to Java security settings to allow execution from that URL.
Also, it would have to be done on every machine.
Also-also, you might have to do it again if Java gets upgraded.
The correct answer is don't use Java Webstart. Webstart is dead. Use a client launcher with java built-in.
What version is this?

Java 8 running on a Windows 12 Server.
I wonder if it would be easy to move the project to another server.
What version of Ignition? If it's a 7.9 installation, you can go to the latest 7.9 version and have the built-in Java.

Yes, it´s a 7.9 from 2019, how can I switch to the built-in Java?
I install this version on my computer and should work fine?
I've not had an issue within the same major revision.
You will still need to go to each client and install the launcher.

It's probably still worth upgrading to 7.9.21, but the Native Client Launcher started embedding Java with 7.9.10.

Ok, thans @JordanCClark and @avaughn
Will check it out if I still have problems after add an exception to Java security settings.
This upgrade Ignition solution seem more trouble as I would need to check clients afterwards.
Cheers!

There's also this KBA that goes over the available options and provides the information you would need to set in the Java Security Settings if you decide not to use the NCL.

Thanks a lot @avaughn , that´s very helpful
Trouble is our business. Do it in stages. Take care of the hemorrhaging first, then bring them up to date.
Here is what I use.
A folder with a copy of the NCL plus pre-made links.
A batch file to handle the installation. The batch file removes any webstart apps and the user’s .ignition folder, copies the folder with the NCL into the user’s profile, then copies the links to the desktop.
@echo off
ECHO Removing user's .ignition folder...
rd %userprofile%\.ignition /q /s
ECHO Removing Java Webstart applications...
javaws.exe -uninstall
ECHO Copying Client Launcher...
XCOPY…
