OWB problem with the SSL CA cert on IcAROS desktop

Hits: 1410

What versions ?

This article is about those software versions : – Odyssey Web Browser (OWB) v 1.16.2 – IcAROS 1.5.2-2

Your question can be :

I have problem surfing in https with OWB. It says that he has a problem with the SSL CA certificate. This can be an error 60 : Unable to connect to "https://www.facebook.com" Error 60 : Peer certificate cannot be authenticated with known CA certificates or maybe an error 77, like this : Unable to open https://www.facebook.com/.... Error 77 : Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?).

Possible workarounds :

– Check your date and time, and restart OWB. – Take your AROS install cdrom or usb pendrive and copy the file curl-ca-bundle.crt located in Utilities/OWB drawer, to the OWB drawer on your hard drive, restart OWB. – If this doesn’t work, you can also make something sneaky, “ignore SSL errors“. You can find it in the menu : Settings / Preferences / Security -> Ignore SSL errors like that :

Usefull Ressources :

– update the file curl-ca-bundle.crt downloading a new version there : http://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html
