590309 - TB 3.1 upgrade from 2.0.14 hangs on certificate exception

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 487498

(Thunderbird :: General, defect)

Description

[Frank Farance]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)
Build Identifier: 

I clicked OK on TB 3.1 upgrade (was running 2.0.14).  My IMAP server has an out-of-date certificate (no prob for me).  TB asks to confirm the security exception (Add Security Exception) and I check "Permanently store the exception".  However, after I hit the button Confirm Security Exception, I keep getting the same window complaining about the security exception.  So I tried hitting Cancel instead, which gets back to complaining about the same security exception.  Then I tried clicking X to close the window, still stuck.

Only solution is to kill TB.

Uh, don't you guys ever test your code?

This is TB version 3.1.2.

Can you fix your server ?

We do but not all edge cases.
