197316 - Import of new CA Certificate fails on 1.3.

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(NSS :: Libraries, defect)

Description

[Binesh Bannerjee]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.3) Gecko/20030312

I have created my own certifying authority, and I _had_ imported it in
Mozilla-1.2.1, but, when I upgraded to 1.3, it doesn't show the certificate
anymore. What's even more odd, is that if I run Mozilla-1.2.1 _again_, I see the
certificate again, but, it disappears as soon as I go back to 1.3.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Well, I suppose you can just hit that URL, and see if it loads the
certificate. For me it APPEARS to succeed, but, then looking at Preferences |
Privacy & Security | Certificates | Manage Certificates | Authorities shows that
it isn't there...
Actual Results:  
The certificate isn't imported, (and there's no rationale given for why it
appears to succeed but, then fails)

Expected Results:  
Either tell me why it fails, or not fail to import.

This sounds like a bug in NSS.

The URL above no longer works.  www.hex21.com doesn't resolve to an IP address.
Without access to that server (or some server that serves that CA cert), 
I cannot reproduce this behavior, and can only speculate on the cause.
Leaving unprioritized.

There's no bug here to reproduce.
