Hi,

about Signature SHA-1 vs. SHA-256: It's known that older software used 
SHA-1 cause SHA-256 just wasn't implemented. So, if you have recent 
stuff hashed with todays normal SHA-256/-384/-512 can't verified on 
older software cause they just implement SHA-2 algos.
Same issue caused recent Windows-Update to fail as M$ changed from SHA-1 
+ SHA-2 to SHA-2 only sign on update packages - but missed to previously 
update M$-update itself to use SHA-2. So, even SHA-2 is used for long 
time M$-update kept rely on SHA-1 as noone ever changed it after SHA-2 
was added.

Simple answer: Update to current OS/JVM.
