It looks like you found the real problem: $ curl -sviI --tlsv1.0 https://ooo-updates.apache.org/ * Trying 40.79.78.1... ... * TLSv1.0 (OUT), TLS handshake, Client hello (1): * TLSv1.0 (IN), TLS alert, Server hello (2): * error:1400442E:SSL routines:CONNECT_CR_SRVR_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version Connection fails with options --tlsv1.0 and --tlsv1.1 but succeeds with --tlsv1.2. Which is in fact a good thing; TLSv1 and TLSv1.1 both have known security bugs. It is usually a bad idea to bundle OpenSSL instead of using the system-provided version; but if you do have to do that (e.g., on Windows, which doesn't have it, or macOS, which has an ancient version), at least use the latest 1.0.2 version, or even better, 1.1.0. -- Brane - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
Re: [Discussion] Program for Sandro
The appraisal of completing expectations is fulfilling and I find it fulfilling to appreciate a smile in the face of my colleagues, because attainment fulfills the will and cooperation fulfills the emotion. I feel that the installation of MediaWiki was successful, it was a bright sight of confirmation of the beauty that I expected from this software. Now I want to write the actual skin, I tell write because it seen that I will have to write the CSS of the new skin and it fulfils myself as a discovery. Maybe in the next week I complete the task. I would like to tell that the Wiki project is really engrossing me like a tender delight or an advance to congratulation, I really like to drive myself to do Wiki. Glad, Sandro Suzart De: sandro Enviado: domingo, 28 de outubro de 2018 22:38 Para: dev@openoffice.apache.org Assunto: Re: [Discussion] Program for Sandro Dear Andrea, I have found the Wiki's Skin fulfilling because of it's friendly form and I have found the PHP work fulfilling because of it's sympathetic way. The friendly form is an aspect of a sympathetic way of work and I find it fulfilling both the friendly and the sympathetic aspects of the task. How good did I feel the CSS work? Well, I feel it a secure task because now the remain thing is the creation of a database to use the Wiki's editor. The Wiki's editor is an involving application and it works well in my browser, it is certainly driving me to happiness.

So Sandro can make a plan. It took a while, but here I am with a task. One of the many things that would be nice to have is a new skin (i.e., graphical theme) for our MWiki https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Main_Page (which is also being moved to a new server, but this is irrelevant to this discussion). This requires some PHP and design capabilities, and a tutorial is available at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skinning_Part_1 and related pages. Sandro, can this work as a task for you? All you will need is a standard MediaWiki installation from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Download (I recommend the "stable LTS" version, since that is the one we are going to settle on) and the tutorial above. If you would like to receive the current skin (I don't even know if it is a skin or just a set of CSS customizations) just ask and I can provide it; but honestly I would start from https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Category:All_skins then find one that you like and extend/customize it. The logo must be updated too and Matthias already sent the new one.

HTTPS links fail, HTTP succeed The HTTPS links all work for me with the FreeBSD port of 4.1.6. One difference is that the FreeBSD port uses the system OpenSSL, currently 1.02p or newer. Does the Apache web server still support TLS version 1.0?

The subject alternative names (which are the real identities that should match, not the common name) are '*.openoffice.org' and 'openoffice.org'. And you're right ... the certificate is wrong ... but making the same request with cURL will give the right certificate. Most likely that's because s_client doesn't send the Server Name Indication that would let HTTPd select the correct virtual host, so it'll select the "first" one. > The same holds if I use just apache.org or openoffice.org And this tends to prove the above assumption. > This mismatch itself doesn't explain much since the connection still > works, but it probably gives a hint for asking Infra why this happens. > > The output I get is very different depending on the system I use (I > get dozens of errors on some systems, a cleaner output in Ubuntu) but > in all cases openssl manages to connect in the end.

Pedro Lino wrote: However the AOO site does not specify any charset. Could that be the problem? I don't think the charset is a major issue, but indeed (if I do the same test with openssl) there is something interesting that can probably be submitted to Infra for investigation. On any system I've tried with (CentOS, Ubuntu, Fedora) $ openssl s_client -state -nbio -connect ooo-updates.apache.org:443 will show (in a lengthy output that I don't have the time to debug now) that it is using this certificate: 0 s:/OU=Domain Control Validated/OU=EssentialSSL Wildcard/CN=*.openoffice.org Note that I requested apache.org and I get a certificate valid for *.openoffice.org. The same holds if I use just apache.org or openoffice.org This mismatch itself doesn't explain much since the connection still works, but it probably gives a hint for asking Infra why this happens. The output I get is very different depending on the system I use (I get dozens of errors on some systems, a cleaner output in Ubuntu) but in all cases openssl manages to connect in the end.

Maybe some more technical certificate details? I compared the output from the sites that do work curl -sviI https://fosdem.org/2019/ curl -sviI https://www.google.com/ fosdem specifies < Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 google specifies < Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 However the AOO site does not specify any charset.

Branko Čibej wrote: Note that all the sites that fail in your list have wildcard certificates — CN=*.apache.org for the Apache sites and CN=*.openoffice.org for the OO sites. This may be related to wildcard cert support Interesting find, and I was hopeful this could be the solution. But if try with fosdem.org (that has a wildcard certificate too) it works even on the Ubuntu system (i.e., the one where I cannot get the updates): $ soffice https://fosdem.org/2019/ # Works, HTTPS with wildcard in OpenSSL/LibreSSL/GnuTLS/whateveryou'reusing on the affected systems. Correlating this with the SSL library name and version would be useful. But, as reported by Pedro in the first test, $ curl https://ooo-updates.apache.org/index.html works well, while $ soffice https://ooo-updates.apache.org/index.html so it's unclear to what extent system libraries are involved. I've tried, with no success, to install more libraries $ sudo apt-get install libssl1.0-dev (see here for context: https://github.com/wkhtmltopdf/wkhtmltopdf/issues/2938#issuecomment-334784936 ) but the Ubuntu system still refused to open the update URL. For debugging, I suggest using cURL instead of OO, for example: curl -sviI https://www.openoffice.org/ Thanks, if the issue is with SSL this indeed helps in finding more details. Still, curl will always work also on affected systems, so if it is SSL-related it won't be enough to check whether the site uses a wildcard SSL certificate... Maybe some more technical certificate details? I'm now trying to check the OpenOffice code to see whether we can get some more meaningful output instead of the empty details string we currently print. For those interested, the error message is assembled in main/uui/source/iahndl.cxx Regards, Andrea. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
