Web Start Based Startup fails with certificate issues

After saving a local copy of the new JNLP file which has problems (see JS-62) and modifying it so the code base points to http://www.crosswire.org/bibledesktop/stable/, I am still unable to start the webstart based bible desktop due to certificate issues. Here are the details of the WebStart error dialog:
