Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox
Hi all, Today's firefox "safe-upgrade" from aptitude in karmic has caused problems with firefox accessing ssl2 sites. Steps to reproduce: ------------------- * Try to access a ssl2 site, ie vmware-server 2 VI Web console Error: ------ * The site times out. I've reproduced the issue with two different vwmare servers; also I've got a timeout here in https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net (though I cannot confirm that the issue wasn't caused by the server. Workarround: ------------ * Set security.enable_ssl2;true (as it defaults to false) This seems to be a known issue with firefox-3.6 either in mozilla [1] and in vmware [2] [1] http://support.mozilla.com/nl/forum/1/564314 [2] http://communities.vmware.com/thread/252218 System description ------------------ r...@ulises-devel:~# lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 9.10 Release: 9.10 r...@ulises-devel:~# apt-cache policy firefox firefox: Installed: 3.6.2~hg20100205r33554+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~umd1~karmic Candidate: 3.6.2~hg20100205r33554+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~umd1~karmic Version table: *** 3.6.2~hg20100205r33554+nobinonly-0ubuntu1~umd1~karmic 0 500 http://ppa.launchpad.net karmic/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.5.7+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.9.10.1 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic-updates/main Packages 500 http://security.ubuntu.com karmic-security/main Packages 3.5.3+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu6 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic/main Packages PS: I haven't been able to post this bug through "apport-bug firefox" because of error: "*Problem in Firefox* The problem cannot be reported: This is not a genuine Ubuntu package" ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- firefox-3.6.2pre from safe-upgrade fails to work in some ssl2 sites https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/517469 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
