Description Bob Lord 2008-04-04 18:53:59 UTC
Description of problem: 
There is a certificate mismatch between the name of the subversion server and
the name in the certificate.

For example, when I perform a "svn info" command, I get back an HTTPS url as
follows:

==
$ svn info linux/common/pki-common.spec
Path: linux/common/pki-common.spec
Name: pki-common.spec
URL:
https://pki-svn.fedora.redhat.com/svn/pki/trunk/pki/linux/common/pki-common.spec
Repository Root: https://pki-svn.fedora.redhat.com/svn/pki
Repository UUID: c9f7a03b-bd48-0410-a16d-cbbf54688b0b

That's fine.  But when I go to that HTTPS url, I get an error page in FF3.  The
error FF3 gives is:
==
Secure Connection Failed
pki-svn.fedora.redhat.com uses an invalid security certificate.

The certificate is not trusted because it is self signed.
The certificate is only valid for pki.fedoraproject.org.

(Error code: sec_error_ca_cert_invalid)
* This could be a problem with the server's configuration, or it could be
someone trying to impersonate the server.
* If you have connected to this server successfully in the past, the error may
be temporary, and you can try again later.
==

At a minimum, let's fix the naming problem in the cert.  But ideally, we should
also make sure we have a cert that chains to a well known issuer.

Update: I re-checked out the source and the host-name error went away. (Thanks
Matt!)

So now the only problem is that it is a self-signed cert.
