Answer 1

Hello

You could try to add http:// without more information, for your local disk this trick works, but did not try that yet for http://

Please let me know Ryde

Answer 2

Also what is the trick to allow all http protocols to open java?

I am not comfortable and is not time consuming to add all addresses to the exception list.

I would like to allow all http procotols, then disable it when im done.

How do you do this?

Answer 3

Hello Emmett

The advice that Kiran gave does no longer work since Java 8 Update 20. The medium option explained in that answer link is no longer in Java. Only security settings High and Very High are available.

You can bypass this with a nasty trick by allowing all http protocols to open java, I do not recommend it.

I recommend you add exceptions to the list as explained in this article.

Hi Yuri,

I tried your exceptions recommendation and it still doesn't work. I added it to the exceptions list and I keep getting the error still.

I get the same error as well.

Reason: Your security settings have blocked and untrusted application from running.

Any suggestions?

It is vital I get this working to access network switch interfaces that uses java.
