Ugh, that's supposed to be fixed in kdelibs-4.0.1-1+ builds, see also bug #429846
(or at least one other openssl-related issue).

fwiw, bugzilla.redhat.com worksforme.

Does konq -> Settings -> Configure Konqueror -> WebBrowsing -> Crypto -> OpenSSL
tab, "Test" button report success or faiilure?

"Test" button reports success.  Issue still exists in:
kdebase-4.0.1-3.fc9.i386
kdelibs-4.0.1-6.fc9.i386

FWIW Firefox isn't working at all for me, and I'm just trying to get to work
using the Alpha distribution.  I'll look to see if a bug exists for that...

Test button works for me too.  Still cannot connect with kdebase-4.0.2-2.fc9,
just hangs forever.

I (still) can't reproduce this.  WORKSFORME.

Hummmmmmmm...I just tried again and it still isn't working...I have never been
able to get it to work with F9 Alpha, and I've been keeping up with updates on a
daily basis.  Rex, did you try http://mail.google.com?  When I try to connect to
that, I get:
An error occurred while loading http://mail.google.com:
Could not connect to host www.google.com: SSL negotiation failed.

and when I try bugzilla, it just hangs...

Firefox, otoh is working fine now... early on had some issues, but those have
been corrected via updates.  I'm wondering if there is any correlation with the
SSL problems with kopete?  Just a thought...

both bugzilla, gmail work for me.  wierd.

Looks like this has been reported upstream and affects multiple distros:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=155564

Same symptoms, possible tie in to the reported kopete issue.  Some folks don't
have the issue, but majority seem to have it.  Wonder if there is a hardware
dependency - I'm running AMD64 and having the issue.

Maybe an OpenSSL bug? I remember XChat being hit by similar "SSL negotiation 
fixed" errors and an OpenSSL patch fixed it, maybe the fix was not complete?

Oops, I mean "SSL negotiation failed" errors of course, not "fixed". ;-)

Did a clean install of F9 Beta hoping that maybe something had gotten corrupted
during the install of the Alpha and a fresh install with beta would resolve. 
Same result:

An error occured while loading...
Could not connect to host www.google.com SSL negotiation failed 

Has anyone else done a fresh install from the beta DVD and gotten this to work?

i cannot reproduce with latest rawhide. it seems fixed in rawhide.

Still just hangs forever(?) for me on today's rawhide.

Looks like it's failing to find the ssl library.

Let's keep further comment/dialog upstream @
http://bugs.kde.org/155564
please.

Correct log file...ignore previous.

Thanks for the log, unfortunately that doesn't enlighten us either. :-(

The KDE architecture is biting us there, all the SSL calls happen in the 
kio_http ioslave, so all Konqueror gets is the error message. :-( Back to the 
drawing board...

Discussion is moving forward in the upstream bug.  Look there...

From the upstream bugzilla:

------- Additional Comment #31 From Orion Poplawski 2008-04-01 22:32 -------  
I think it's a Qt issue.   
 
 qt-x11-opensource-src-4.3.4/src/network/qsslsocket_openssl_symbols.cpp:257: 
 
     QLibrary libssl(QLatin1String("ssl")); 
     if (!libssl.load()) { 
         // Cannot find libssl 
         qWarning("QSslSocket: cannot find ssl library: %s.", 
                  qPrintable(libssl.errorString())); 
         return false; 
     } 
 
 Seems like this needs to be libssl(QLatin1String("ssl"),SSL_VERSION) with 
SSL_VERSION = 7 in Fedora devel. 
 
 
 So it's asking QLibrary to load "libssl.so".

Thanks Orion, this looks fairly easy to patch.

Should be fixed in qt-4.3.4-10.fc9, please test.
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=543345

This is also likely to fix the SSL-related errors with Kopete.

it's similar bug in kdelibs that we already fixed. Good work Orion, thanks.

Confirmed fixed, thanks to Gerald Cox.
