Hi,


yes, I am using Chrome on Windows (will try FF on Linux later) with the os key store.


Can anyone point me to the official reference for this issue, or post it here please?


https://cern.service-now.com/service-portal/view-incident.do?n=INC1520340

Seem the CERN voms people don't know what I am talking about.

Thanks,
Simon

Just a thought...if memory serves (and depending on you OS - I'm thinking Windows here),  Firefox  by default uses its own key store rather than the system one.  On that premise  you might want to check which cert you are updating and confirm where you are actually getting your cert from.

Hmm, it was certainly working when I tried it in my Firefox. You could try to delete all eScience certificates from the Authorities list, then the browser should only send your certificate and not the whole chain and therefore shouldn't trigger the bug. I've had problems in the past with Firefox that deleted CA certificates reappeared after closing and reopening the dialog box. You should check that they really are deleted. If they are gone and you can access to the Cern VOMS server works then you can try to import the new CA certificate again.

Alternatively, if you're in a hurry and have Firefox you could try to create a new profile (firefox -no-remote -P) to start with a clean slate and sort out your default profile later.

Cheers,
Robert

But this might also prevent you from accessing other services that still use the 1.87 release (if they are java services that use bouncycastle on SL6x, eg the gridpp voms server).
