[gentoo-user] Firefox 1.0.4 certificate problem

2005-06-14 Thread Kevin O'Gorman
I'm having trouble with the Java Forums site, because Firefox cannot
deal with a certificate
it gets.  Try the "login" link on 
   http://forum.java.sun.com/forum.jspa?forumID=57
or any of the other fora.

If somebody can point me to the place to report Firefox problems, I'll
tell them too...

I got there OK (reached the login page), but of course I can't log in.
Anyway, it took a bit longer than usual to load, but while it was a
noticeable delay, it wasn't even long enough for me to think that the
page was not going to load, or that it was crashed.

So I don't know what to tell you, other than that if you want to find
out where Mozilla/Firefox bugzilla is, check www.mozilla.org (but I
would guess that bugzilla.mozilla.org might be the right choice).

Hi there,

Same for me. It took longer to load the page then normal expected. I tried it a 
couple of times, of which several times would scare me. The delay can reach 
more the 60 seconds.

So there's only one thing to say. "BE PATIENT"

Have fun, and don't let one page scare you away from Firefox.
William.

It happened to me recently as well so I'll explain you the problem and
solution.

First check if you have "cookies" set to :
- Allow site to set cookies
- ask me every time
so you keep collecting the cookies; it appears to me that Firefox has
some kind of limit as to number of cookies it can accept (it is a bug to
me).  I was collecting them till at one point in time I couldn't log-in
into my bank.
The solution was to delete all the cookies or at least the one you have
blocked.

The page loads fast for me with JavaScript disabled (firefox noscript 
extension).  After I enabled JavaScript for sun.com I experienced the delay 
that you reported.

Except I didn't report a delay -- I reported outright failure.  I very
quickly get a dialog reporting
"Alert -- Error trying to validate certificate from
sofrwarereg.sun.com using OCSP - directory lookup failure."

I guess it's a local configuration issue, which in Firefox can be very
hard to figure out.  Sigh.

It shoudn't be that hard.  What version is it?  Do you have the same problem 
for all users/profiles.  Did you remerge it already?

It's Firefox 1.0.4.  I have no other profiles.  I haven't done anything but
complain, so far, sorry.

I didn't see that error when I skimmed through your first message.  I
have had nothing but problems with the OCSP protocol. To turn it off go
to Edit->Preferences and click on Advanced.  Down near the bottom under
Validation is a box concerning OCSP.  In my case, I have completely
turned it off.

Paul

Me neither, because it wasn't there. I've got proof :-)

AFAICT the default setting is off for mozilla-firefox-1.0.4.  I haven't tried 
mozilla-firefox-bin though.
