We are currently upgrading Ignition from 7.8.3 to 7.9.4. It’s working for users with Java 8, but users with Java 6 are getting the following error when trying to start a client:

```auto
Unable to launch the application.

com.sun.deploy.net.JARSigningException: Found unsigned entry in resource: http://ignition:80/main/system/launchbin/launchclient.jar

```

These users are not able to upgrade Java due to other legacy applications. What can be done to resolve this issue? At this point I’m not sure if this is a bug in Ignition, a gateway configuration issue or a client Java configuration issue.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Java 6 turned into a nightmare for us. I switched to the Native Client launcher and bundled java with it so there is no system dependency on needing a java install. I push out the client with our corporate software deployment system. Much easier.

Basically I build an installer that will put the client launcher in the ProgramData folder along with a custom launch.xml with the gateway name and a JRE folder with 32 or 64bit JRE depending on the client arch. Additionally, the install puts a link in AllUsers Start Menu to Ignition Applications which points to the clientlauncher.exe [image] The installer can run graphically or…

You need to use the Native Client Launcher to continue using Java 6.
