Acquire Certificate for Podbase (use podbase.net) #89

Closed julianh2o closed 11 years ago

julianh2o commented 11 years ago

I've put in an application for an open source certificate. Hopefully it'll go through without hitch.

Brad approved when I told him. He might do the same for PBRC.

Check it out! This is done: https://podbase.net/

You should see a green icon next to the URL bar indicating that the certificate is valid.

Hmm -- no green icon, although I get no warning when using the link you sent.

 I edited the hypertext link in Word to use the podbase.net address

instead, and the problem described below went away -- however, it still wanted an extraneous log-in, and it only took me to the Podbase hime page, not the image-browser that I linked to.

Initial problem: When I attempedt to use the hypertext link to an image via Word (which used the old https://podbase2.pbrc.haweaii.edu URL), there were three items in the warning screen that used to come up tagged with yellow triangles having an exclamation mark in the middle. Now two of the 3 come with green circles surrounding a check mark instead ("The security certificate is from a trusted certifying authority" and "The certificate date is valid") but the third one still had a yellow traingle ("The name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the name of the site"). When I clicked on "proceed" I got another warning screen that did not use to appear:

"This Connection is Untrusted

You have asked Firefox to connect securely to podbase2.pbrc.hawaii.edu, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. Normally, when you try to connect securely, sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.

      What Should I Do?

        If you usually connect to this site without problems, this

error could mean that someone is trying to impersonate the

site, and you shouldn't continue."

I got the same warning when I tried to use the Firefox tool bar link (to podbase2), but that disappeared after I edited the link to "podbase.net" Is there any reason anyone would want to use the podbase2 address in the future?

Thanks, Julian -- Progress is being made!

Use www.podbase.net only from now on. Try refreshing a few times, you should get the valid certificate message as long as you are using podbase.net.
