Can't play due to security problems

Post by AszyTheAsianDude »

I tried to launch haven and hearth, but it says that my security settings have blocked a self-signed application from running.
How do I fix this?

if your on windows 7 I can tell you exact steps if not youll need to do some sluthing but this can guide you
Open start
type java
configure java
Security tab
lower security settings
try HnH again

If you havent go get Ender or Apoc clients you will still need above steps but they are better. Also Search the forums. 6 topics down is this viewtopic.php?f=2&t=37534.

Same problem another answer.

Latest versions of Java seem to have only "High" and "Very high" security options [Insert marijuana joke here] so you need to add http://www.havenandhearth.com to allowed exceptions. Custom clients are recommended by almost everybody though.

Leave Security on "high"

Make exceptions for both http and https

Code: Select all
