I have experienced a problem when upgrading to V7 (Home Use) on two different hardware platforms.
The installation goes fine, but I cannot connect to WebAdmin (YES I'm using https port 4444!).
I believe this is related to the SSL certificate. Safari 2.0.4 gives the most descriptive feedback: "Safari can’t open the page “https://192.168.1.1:4444/” because it couldn’t establish a secure connection to the server “192.168.1.1”."
Firefox 2.0.0.7 on the Mac and the PC show something like: "The connection to 192.168.1.1:4444 was interrupted while the page was loading."
Now, if I create a virgin user - one that has never connected to my V6 - for either Safari or Firefox, I am prompted to accept the self-signed certificate and everything works. Simply creating a new firefox profile is not sufficient. The new profile will also fail to establish a proper connection.
This occurs on both the Mac and my Windows XP laptop.
I have tried clearing cache, and all private data. I have looked for the remnants of the old self-signed cert and have come up empty.
From the command line on the Mac:
earwig:~ cjl$ openssl s_client -host 192.168.1.1 -port 4444
CONNECTED(00000003)
16187:error:140790E5:SSL routines:SSL23_WRITE:ssl handshake failure:s23_lib.c:188:
openssl s_client succeeds from the user account that is also able to connect via the browser.
Edit: Note that this is occurring even if I do a fresh V7 installation with no upgrade. It appears to be the relationship between a browser that has connected to that IP address using https before and one that hasn't.
