I've been tearing my hair out over a problem with the apache+ssl-1.3.41.1.59 port running under FreeBSD 7.0-release and am hoping that someone can provide some suggestions. We have a Perl CGI based web application that was using apache+ssl-1.3.27.1.48_2 on FreeBSD 4.8. When we upgraded to the latest version, we began getting strange errors from a few web browsers; specifically the latest release of Safari and FireFox 2.0. FireFox 2.0 will return error code -12229 when the client performs POST requests; GET requests work fine. FireFox 3.0 does not return this error, nor does IE 6 or 7. The latest version of Safari just generates an error about being "unable to establish a secure connection". I do not see any errors recorded in Apache's log file; the POST request shows a status code of 200. >From what I can tell this is most likely a browser error. I'm wondering if someone's seen this problem before? I also don't understand why the latest release of the apache13-ssl port causes this error to occur when a much older release did not. I suppose asking people to upgrade to FireFox 3 is an option, but I don't have a solution for Safari users. I'd really appreciate any help with this matter. If it would help, I can send my httpsd.conf file along with some packet dumps if you'd like. Thanks! -Damian
