Public bug reported: Contrary to reports mentioned in this post on Adobe's jira:
(See http://www.pavlasek.sk/devel/?p=10) Flash Player 10 will successfully upload using Flex's FileReference.upload method on http and https on firefox in a clean jaunty installation. I recently came across a systematic failure of this method on https on my personal jaunty installation and tracked it down to having installed curl (and thus dependent package libcurl3). If libcurl3 is installed on top of a clean jaunty installation file upload will fail on https. The reason seems to have something to do with invalid handling of TLSV1 with libcurl3 installed since I saw an error in wireshark with a TLS frame being returned stating "Fatal, Unexpected Message". I suspect a difference in implementation between OpenSSL and / Gnu TLS. Flash player in firefox / linux makes its own http or https connections instead of going through the browser when doing file upload. ** Affects: curl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- libcurl3 causes https file upload to fail in flash player 10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/389958 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
