116474 - 'unknown socket - login aborted' message when certain pages are loaded

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 47617

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect, P2)

Description

[Thomas Winwood]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i586; en-US; rv:0.9.6+) Gecko/20011217
BuildID:    2001121715

When one goes to a certain site using Mozilla, the browser rejects the link with
an 'Unknown Socket' message. In other browsers, this is loaded as normal.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to site (www.redhat.com).
2. Click Download at top of page.
3. N.B. You must be registered to RedHat to do this.

Actual Results:  I recieved the 'Unknown socket' error.

Expected Results:  Logged me into RedHat and continued to Download section.

I believe that this only happens when there is a login required - Yahoo! Mail
has the same problem, for example.

Yeah, see bug 47617.  This is because the pages you're using are secure sites,
but  you don't have the PSM (Personal Security Manager) installed.  Please make
sure you install it.

Duping to 47617.

Thanks. Now I need to find out where to get the PSM.

Reporter: It's part of mozilla. If you use the installer you can unselect PSM
(Personal security Manager) during the installation.
If you use RPM builds, you must use a build with PSM.
If you compile yourself you must compile with--enable-crypto

BTW: Please never touch the Priority field of a bug. If you need help -> write
an email
