Reporter, I can't access the secure website at all. I used Mozilla (build
2002110808) on Mac OS 9, Mac Internet Exploder 5 and iCab. Mozilla reponded with
"This document contains no data", the others claimed that the website couldn't
be found. Regular HTTP-access was possible (it asked for authentication), so the
webserver is running. But SSL-access isn't possible.

I think that IE was showing you a page from its cache.
I also cannot acces that site with Konqueror 3.0.0 on Linux. Just no response.
So it does not seem like a Mozilla problem.
INVALID since page is unavailable...

Mozilla fails exactly as described, but IE also says "Unable to connect", so...

verified.

Sorry for unconvinience. My mail was down for a little while and I've just
noticed that :(((
I've changed testcase URL: http://sourceforge.net/account/login.php
Steps to reproduce:
1. goto url
2. press "Login with SSL" button.
URL: https://geodev.photon.com/ → http://sourceforge.net/account/login.php

With Mozilla 1.1 there is no problem. I will try later today with a recent build.
Reporter, is the reaction the same for you at this URL as for the last one?
("...has terminated unexpectedly...") Can you reproduce it everytime you try?
(as opposed to a temporary "network congestion")
Just tested with current trunk build 2002111508 on Win95.
Works for me.
(Will test later today with other config)
Reporter: in addition to my questions in the last comment, do you have cookies
fully enabled (as explicitly required by the web page)?
I can reproduce the problem everytime.
Today mozilla says to me "The document contains no data" when I 've tried to
press the button.
IE still do the job.
Cookies handling is set in "Enable all cookies".
Maybe a local problem?
I'll try to reproduce this from fresh installation and different profile.
Just tried on a different computer with Win2k: also WFM.
Anatoly, do you use a proxy?
If so, have you only entered a HTTP proxy in "Preferences-Advanced-Proxies" or
also a SSL proxy?

The way you found another (quite popular) testcase URL lets me assume that maybe
no SSL connection at all works for you. Is this right?
As I figured out it's a proxy problem. With direct connect all works fine.
Therefore it's strange Mozilla works with the same proxy as IE but doesn't open
testcase URL as IE...
