Hi,

I analyzed and played with code signing on Windows using a self signed
test certificate.

Thanks to Andre and his Perl skills I was able to fix a strange build
problem with a too long command line triggered from a makefile to perl.
Anyway this is solved now.

I have now signed a full install set and would like to ask if somebody
is interested to test it and give me feedback.

I've made some quick tests under XP and Win7.
Starting the zipped file for unpacking gives a an unknown distributor in the UAC dialog. The same when I start the the setup.exe. The properties of the zipped download file, the msi file and the setup.exe shoa "Apache OpenOffice (DevBuild)" as 'Signaturgeberinformation'.

Installing the Office and looking at the 'control panel -> Add remove and software' shows "OpenOffice.org" as distributor.

I fear that this is not what you've wanted.

Groetjes,
Olaf


You can find a signed download file under
http://people.apache.org/~jsc/signing_test/Apache_OpenOffice_incubating_3.4.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe

NOICE: this is a build based on AOO34 branch without the updated version
numbers. It's no dev build, please be careful if you test it.

I have to check the whole process and probably have to improve some
things to make it final. The last important step is triggered manual by
now.

I use a Personal Information Exchange file (*.pfx) of my self signed
certificate with a passcode that is specified during the build process.

This seems to be a good approach to handle a certificate in this
scenario and during our build process.

I will keep you informed...

Juergen
