After installing SuSE 8.1, I have discovered that Mozilla doesn't have any certificate authorities defined. This makes it fun to use a secure connection as I have to manually accept the certificates presented.
I've experienced the same problem, but it was not 8.1 related. I've had this problem both on 7.3. and 8.1.
I have tried reinstalling, I have used the packages from usr-local-bin.org and the SuSE ftp site and all of them exhibit the same behavior.
This is when the problem started for me: I installed galeon from usr-local-bin.org
I have also removed the mozilla packages, the /opt/mozilla and ~/.mozilla directories and then reinstalled and ran SuSEconfig.
Certificates are stored in the file cert7.db. File should be located in ~/.mozilla/<username>/<some random name>/cert7.db for mozilla and ~/.galeon/mozilla/galeon/cert7.db for galeon
This wasn't a problem with SuSE 8.0 and I can't determine what didn't get installed or configured.
I didn't investigate this in depth, I just copied cert7.db and everything is fine again. Ok,
I solved my issue by copying a good cert7.db from a Solaris box running
Mozilla at my work.
However, I still can't figure out why the cert7.db isn't getting created
in the first place. Running pin cert7.db shows no results so I'm trying
to figure out how the file is supposed to be created in the first place.
