Description

Currently the tsa url is offline, causing code signer application to crash when trying to sign with timestamping enabled.
Is it possible to present a message, or maybe a test button to check whether the url is available or not?

Yeah, I suppose I could test the URL pre-signing. The tsa URL is used by the Java code itself, but I could pre-check before and show a warning in that case, asking for confirmation to sign without timestamp in this case. I'll look into that asap.

I've added a check on the tsa URL, this will prevent a crash and log that the URL is unreachable and states that the signing will be done without timestamp.
Don't know why the geotrust URL is no longer available, but note that you can override that URL in the preferences with one provided by your CA.
