[Bug 89023] Re: Update of Firefox disables PSM (not more SSL or saved passwords)
I have the same problem. It seems that the SSL is broken due to an incorrect setting in the personal profile of the user (something under ~/.mozilla/firefox) so it can be broken for one user of the PC but work for the others. As a workaround I use to: 1) update my firefox SSL configuration in edit/preferences/advanced/security/protocols. Something like enabling or disabling TLS 1.0. (Most of the site support SSL 3.0, so it doesn't matter if you disbale it - the important point is to modify the config) 2) close firefox (all instances) 3) restart firefox then SSL works again :-) ... until the problem re-appear :-( but at least SSL stays one whole firefox session.

[Bug 89023] Re: Update of Firefox disables PSM (not more SSL or saved passwords)
Do you have any custom certificates installed? In my case, I don't think so. If I run strings .mozilla/firefox/*/cert8.db on both my own account or my wife's, I see only Version. Is there another or more direct way to check? The problem remains. My account can access https sites, but hers cannot. Under her account, if I mv .mozilla .mozilla-old and restart, she gets a fresh session which works just fine - if I mv it back again, SSL sites no longer work. I tried running a diff between the fresh and old .mozilla directories. There are so many files that it's hard to see what's significant. I do notice that she appears to have installed the google toolbar extension though (lots of files referring to 'amulet') Regards, Brian. -- Update of Firefox disables PSM (not more SSL or saved passwords) https://launchpad.net/bugs/89023 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 89023] Re: Update of Firefox disables PSM (not more SSL or saved passwords)
Uninstalling the google toolbar appears to have fixed the problem! At least, I could go to https://signup.tiscali-business.co.uk/ immediately. The first time I tried http://www.barlays.co.uk/ and 'login' I got the same error, but after a couple of retries it was fine. So this needs some more exhaustive testing, but that may be where the problem lies. -- Update of Firefox disables PSM (not more SSL or saved passwords) https://launchpad.net/bugs/89023 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 89023] Re: Update of Firefox disables PSM (not more SSL or saved passwords)
My wife is affected by this problem too - in firefox, independent of thunderbird. Since the most recent update to firefox was applied (via the orange update icon on the panel), she has been unable to access her on-line banking. It's easy to replicate: enter URL http://www.barclays.co.uk/, then click on the log in button at the top left hand corner. We then get the firefox error about Personal Security Manager, sometimes after a very long delay. My workaround for her has been to install Opera 9.10, which works just fine with this site. Firefox has definitely, definitely been restarted (I can show with 'ps -auxw' that it's not running, before restarting it) Now, things are even stranger with another site. Go to https://signup .tiscali-business.co.uk/ and you should just get a redirect to another page. If I do this when logged in as my wife, it gives the PSM error. But if I do this when logged in as myself, it works just fine. This seems to imply that there is some stored state which affects things (although I'm unable to get a Barclays login page from either account). Possibly an rm -rf ~/.mozilla might fix the problem, but I would rather avoid this if at all possible. I compared .mozilla/firefox/*/prefs.js between the two accounts. Mine has signon.rememberSignons=false, whilst hers has signon.SignonFilename = something.s. I tried using about:config to set signon.rememberSignons=false on hers, then stopped and restarted firefox, but that didn't seem to make a difference. My wife does use thunderbird, but I am replicating this problem directly within firefox, and indeed it's the same even if thunderbird is not running at all. P.S. Version info: $ dpkg-query -l | grep firefox ii firefox1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.10-0ubuntu0.6.06.2 lightweight web browser based on Mozilla ii firefox-gnome-support 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.10-0ubuntu0.6.06.2 Support for Gnome in Mozilla Firefox ii libnspr4 1.firefox1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.10-0ubuntu0.6.06.2 Netscape Portable Runtime Library ii libnss3 1.firefox1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.10-0ubuntu0.6.06.2 Network Security Service Libraries - runtime ii mozilla-firefox-locale-en-gb 1.5.0.1ubuntu6-2 Mozilla Firefox English language/region pack P.P.S. I had to use Opera to submit this comment too. When viewing https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/89023 in firefox, clicking Add a comment/attachment just adds a '+index#' to the URL and jumps to the top of the screen - nowhere to enter any text. Whereas in Opera, there's a triangle next to Add a comment/attachment which opens up an entry form. I suspect that's a separate bug, even though https is involved too. -- Update of Firefox disables PSM (not more SSL or saved passwords) https://launchpad.net/bugs/89023 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry, but a simple Synaptic update using Firefox 1.5.dfsg+1.5.0.10-0ubuntu0.6.06.2 re-broke my partially functional Firefox.
