Screenshot of invalid certificate notification suggesting to add an exception
Sorry for the poorly chosen 2nd example. I had copied the URL from a posting to the Fedora development list. Using https://hosted.fedoraproject.org/nodoka/wiki/Screenshots instead of https://fedorahosted.org/nodoka/wiki/Screenshots the screenshots section becomes actually accessible. However, it still serves as an example, and in the case of the fdo bugzilla, the complaint is about a self-signed certificate which is less obvious to deal with. Not sure if this might help solve the problem, but I noticed that I can set the exeptions via Certificates extension. However, would be good to have it accessible from the error page itself (like is done in firefox 3). Ah, this actually works. I wonder whether epiphany should then depend on epiphany-extensions. This requirement may however become obsolete soon as GNOME is about to switch to the WebKit backend. I have epiphany-2.22.1.1-1.fc9.ppc installed and this version allows me to set up exceptions for invalid SSL certificates, just like Firefox does. I do not have Firefox nor any epiphany extensions installed. This functionality now seems to be in the base epiphany package. For me, this bug is fixed. Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping I can totally reproduce this bug in epiphany-2.22.1.1-1.fc9.x86_64. That particular bug (not having a button to add an exception) should be fixed already. I filed bug 444433 about the button not bringing along the URL of the place into the dialogue. Right, it's possible to add exceptions by simply following the instructions when encountering a page with an invalid certificate. Closing the bug as CURRENTRELEASE. *** Bug 444433 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
