From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS sun4u; en-US; rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020312
BuildID: 2002031309 (compiled from 0.9.9 sources)
If i go to a SSL-site (for instance https://freemail.web.de) and click on the
lock icon in the lower left corner or open View->Pageinfo it doesn't show any
security related information, no cipher strength, no certificate, nothing. Only
a tooltip ("signed by ...") shows up if I hoover over the icon. This makes the
pageinfo rather useless for https-sites (on the other hand I like the new pageinfo)
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.go to some https-site for instance https://freemail.web.de
2.click on the lock icon in the lower left corner
3.pageinfo shows up with no security-related content
Actual Results: the pageinfo didn't contain any security-related information
Expected Results: I would like to see at least the cipher used and the
certificate info

worksforme, linux build 2002-03-11-08. Are you using tabbed browser by any chance?
I know that it works for Linux, that's why the platform is "Sun"! It could be
related to #130558 which is apparently also Sun-only.

Ah, OK. I was just checking. :)
Over to the PSM team, who provide the info in that overlay.

I don't have a sun box, so it's going to be difficult to look into this.
I filed related bug 130946 which is cross platform and may resolve this one.

Target Milestone: --- → 2.2
I found a workaround! Removing of chrome/chrome.rdf fixes it. The same is true
for #130558, #130790, and #130797. Something is wrong with the creation of this
file on Solaris.

tried this on a cvs build on solaris, from mar 20.
The screenshot suggests WORKSFORME, or at least something profile specific
which
could indeed be XP. I don't have a different platform, so I can't really tell.
The VIEW dialog is rather detailed, too

Reporter, is this still an issue, or can we resolve it with "works for me"?
I'm still running with the chrome/chrome.rdf file removed and haven't seen any
negative effects to far. So without the chrome/chrome.rdf file it works fine for me.

Brian, do you have an idea whom we could ask to find the cause of this problem?
Comment 10•23 years ago

I am not seeing this problem in 0.9.9 or trunk on Solaris 8 or 9

jrgm on irc mentioned, this could be related to bug 125489
Reporter, what do you think?

Comment 12•23 years ago
|
||
Yes, bug 125489 is exactly the problem. The overlayinfo doesn't get created.
If I extract mozilla in /var/tmp it creates the proper stuff but under our
final destination for some reason not.

Now that the real cause has been fixed (bug 125489), we should retest whether
the bug is still reproducable. Kuenne, can you please test?

It works fine for me. I'm already running since some time with a preliminary
fix. The problem was that chrome/overlayinfo* wasn't properly created if you
started mozilla from an automounted filesystem the first time.
