OS X Mavericks WebDAV cert problems?

[jhannah]

19:39 < oliver> hi folks. I seem no longer to be able to access the webdav service for our PM website (from OS X Mavericks). Is there some change with the cert or anything else I should have known about? Day changed to 06 Jan 2014 05:09 < oliver> jhannah: connecting to webdav with Cyberduck app instead of native Mac OS X allowed me access in the end :)

(I opened this as a publicly accessible note so I have something I can reference whenever I get around to upgrading to Mavericks. And as a gathering point in case others see this issue too.)

18:27 < oliver> jhannah: there was a cert warning with cyberduck (with the option to continue), and I suspect OS X translated that into a NONE SHALL PASS (i.e. no option to continue) 18:28 < oliver> even though I'm pretty certain the develooper root is trusted in the right way in Keychain app

At work we've recently got reports about cPanel webdav issues on OS X, both on Cyberduck and Finder. However it works fine on Safari and Firefox.

I suspect that it's something related to the webdav server certificate too, so this issue may be affecting other webdav servers as well.

I guess that WebDAV server is running on Perl, could it be that some dependency dealing with certificates has recently changed its behaviour?

I upgraded to Mavericks, and hit this same problem. You can fix it by opening Safari, going to https://groups.pm.org, click "View Certificate," and then check this "Always trust" box:

Closing issue, since we can refer to it just as easily closed, and there's no action to take... right? :)

Agreed, many thanks for the confirmation and the solution :)
