Java 8 Webstart security popups

Ever since the bashing of Java not being secure, Java Webstart security features are getting tighter and tighter. i'm using java 1.8u20.

At the moment my application is missing some security check and thus doesn't show the tickbox as it is shown below.
enter image description here

I'm kind of tired of not knowing what popups and their variations are possible.
Does Oracle have a flowchart stating what Popups happen and when tickboxes dissapear for which reason? Or even a log file where all security checks are logged, so you can actually find out where Webstart is seeing an error?

Yes, the Java Web Start tag includes a reference to the article on security prompts. See also this Q&A: the accepted answer correctly recommends a certificate signed by a well known Certificate Authority (CA), but a self-signed certificate may be an usage alternative.
