Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 331404

(Calendar :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.0.8) Gecko/20061025 Firefox/1.5.0.8
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20061006 Sunbird/0.3

When trying to subscribe to an icalendar file on an https server, Sunbird crashes. Calendars on regular http servers work fine.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to subscribe to a calendar on an https server
2. Crash!




The https server is using a certificate signed by an authority that Mozilla does not know about. If you can point me to a publicly-accessible icalendar file on an https server then I can try it out.

I can set up a dummmy calendar on our system if you want to try to reproduce it with our servers. We use Sunbird on several other systems (on Windows and Linux) and it doesn't crash however.

I also tried the 2006-12-06 nightly and got the crash. Sunbird also crashed if I tried to access the new Advanced section of Sunbird's preferences.

According to Bug 330271 Comment #75 and following comments this is caused by
the problem reported in Bug 331404. Resolving as duplicate.

Unfortunately the fix for Bug 331404 is not yet contained in Sunbird (or
Firefox or Thunderbird). You can use the tools that are attached in bug 331404
to fix your system or wait for a future release that contains the fix.
