Description: 

When running the Airlock SSL VPN applet on a client with Java version 1.7.0_02 or 1.7.0_03, no connections can be established. The following exception appears in the Java console:

javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: java.security.cert.CertificateException: No trust manager installed

Workaround: 

This is a known issue of the Java plug-in in these two versions of Java 7. See the following link for more information: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7140869

You can avoid this problem with one of the following workarounds:

  • Use the latest Java 6 version on your clients
  • Update Java to version 1.7.0_04 or newer
  • Define the following start parameter in your index.html <param name="cert.verify" value="false">
