100990 - Netscape 6.1 hanges on Netware 5.0 when accessed using SSL

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Core Graveyard :: Java: OJI, defect)

Description

[Rajeev Sharma]

I have installed Netscape 6.1 on my Netware client ( Netware 5.0 ). My Netware 
is running a complete java base server configured with SSL. When I try to 
execute
https://<ip-address>:port, 
The brower first warns about the trusted certificate associated with the 
webserver. After clicking "yes" multiple times to accept this certifiacte for 
secure communication,  the browser displays a blank page and it hangs for ever.

Following the same steps on IE5.X do not cause any problems, and a user can 
login successfully.

I also tested it using the Novell Netware Enterprise Web Server ( i.e. 
executing https://<ip-address>>:2200 on a Netscape Browser (6.1 ) and it hangs.

Please let us know the cause or a work around if any or a fix.

Regards,

I encounter a similar problem with Mozilla 0.9.7.  Trying to access the Netware
Enterprise Server administration page (https://webserver.name.com:2200) on our
Netware server, I get prompted for authentication as expected, but then screen
clears and never displays the main page.

Server is Netware 5.1 SP3 running Netware Enterprise Server NSHTTPD.NLM V5.10c
11/08/2001.
