I'm having trouble resolving what you mean by $HOME. I'm used to it meaning on
Windows the same thing as the user.home property, which is:

files" disabled.
Can you help point me in the right direction?
On Windows this would typically be <User Application Data
Folder>\Sun\Java\Deployment\log
If the log doesn't solve this problem I'd be glad to file a bug report, but
unfortunately this came right before we begin 2 weeks of conferences at which
we'll be exhibiting all day and not doing any programming. Hopefully we won't
be dead in the water in terms of Java working locally. The 7u25 problem also
happened right before another major presentation, so this is the second
short-deadline crisis we've had with Java updates and such crises are the sort
of thing that will get Java a bad reputation with developers.
If we are using Java 8 build 111 are we safe from forced updates, and can
resolve this in a less time pressured environment?
I think so, but I'm not positive.
Note that this list is used to discuss security topics in the OpenJDK:
cryptography, TLS, PKI, Kerberos, etc. It isn't typically used to
discuss deployment security topics, although I will try to help as I
can. I recommend that you also try the OTN forums, as there are experts
on deployment monitoring them and are more likely to be able to help.

Check the log files in $HOME/.java/deployment/log directory. Perhaps
some messages aren't appearing in the console for some reason.
Otherwise, I would suggest to please file a bug so we can look into it
further: http://bugs.sun.com/
Thanks,
