Description Mark Crocker 2014-02-15 21:50:46 UTC 
Under Java 1.7_u51 security has been beefed up, so it now refuses to start Chainsaw 2.0alpha-1.

The Exception tab of the details window shows:

java.lang.SecurityException: Missing required Permissions manifest attribute in main jar: http://logging.apache.org/chainsaw/webstart/lib/log4j-chainsaw-2.0alpha-1.jar
