66904 - HTTPS connections doesn't work through proxy

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 31174

(Core :: Security: PSM, defect)

Description

[Tom Mraz]

I see this under the 2001012821 Linux nightly (installer). If it's not the
Installer build problem only then it must be a recent regression because in the
last week the HTTPS through proxy worked fine.

HTTPS was browen during that time and was fixed on the 1st. Download one of the
latest nightlies and retry. Reopen if this reoccurs again.

I'm sorry, but it still doesn't work for me. (Linux nightly 2001020521)

Ok we need some more information here, what proxy are you using? Version? Type
etc? What site are you having problems with and what is the error message :)
Thanks for your time.

Copying from my report of bug #67815 (which was a dupe of this one, sorry):

Mozilla 2001020508, Linux (Mandrake 7.2, glibc 2.2.1, kernel 2.4.0)

using squid 2.4 (recent cvs snapshot)

The proxy works perfectly for Netscape 4.7x, MSIE and Mozilla 0.7 clients.

Using the aforementioned daily build (2001020508), when trying to access any
secure page (e.g. https://www.fortify.net/sslcheck.html), it takes a long time,
about 1 or 2 minutes, and then says "The operation timed out attempting to
contact https://(address)".

If I configure Mozilla to not use a proxy server for HTTPS sites, it works. The
problem is only when using the proxy.

I see exactly the same behavior except the proxy is squid 2.3.STABLE4

Not sure which bug to leave open. Will mark this one a dup, since the people
cced on bug 31174 are likely to be interested in the state. (But in no case mark
bug 31174 a dup of this one.)
