Exactly this is the case. The interesting thing is that I switched off my PowerBook a few days ago and booted it five or six hours ago. All old tabs to tickets on https://trac.macports.org/ opened without problem, I can work there, and am obviously logged in there since a few days. But new connections possible, no search, no visiting other issues.

Same with the system's Safari 4.1.3.

Same failure with iCab.

Netscape Navigator 9 has problems as well, first with seamonkey.at, then MacPorts site.

TenFourFox was fooling me! All open and ready for work issues were just memories of the last state before quitting TenFourFox. Nothing goes.

That's probably caused by me — we had gazillions of requests from bots that didn't identify themselves as bots but instead used old Chrome and Firefox user agents, which trac is now configured to filter. See https://trac.macports.org/ticket/71358 (which I know you can't see, at least not with TenFourFox).

Can you tell me the user agent that your TenFourFox uses so I can make sure that doesn't land on our blocklist?

I am using the same version of TenFourFox on Mac OS X 10.5.8, Leopard. It's really the same physical package. Could be it is substituting "10.4" with "10.5". A check might happen some time in December… (too much work on Tiger)

Yes, seems to work again (reload, search, GitHub login).
