[opensuse-factory] firefox 3.5b4 problems with proxy redirections
Hi everybody (and Wolfgang :) ) Since recently, Factory was blessed with Firefox 3.5b4 packages. So far it looks fine, except that I started to have one tiny (big) issue: In our corporate environment we're using a proxy. All the settings are given out with a .pac file (Proxy Autoconfiguration). FF reads the file, tries to connect to the proxy (so far so good). The proxy then sends a redirect request to a login page (border manager.. and unfortunately client trust, the single sing on solution for it, does not work without NCL. and even then, only on 32bit.. wrghl). But then, FF never reaches the login page (I get the message that the proxy refused the connection). If I then go manually to the login page (server:444/[...]) and log in, everything works fine from then on... so it's purely the redirect that does no longer work. The only thing changed in the chain was FF from 3.0.x to 3.5. This used to work fine before. Anybody with the same?

I'd recommend to open a bugreport at bugzilla.mozilla.org about it. I don't know enough about what happens in your environment exactly so I cannot be a proxy for that. This appears to be pretty serious so please let me know the bug number afterwards so I can follow up to get it fixed hopefully.

Thanks for your fast reply. So now after having one more bugzilla account ;) there is a new ticket at bmo. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=491818 Hopefully this can be tackled down and I provided enough information.
