Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
Works as expected - it displays a 'connection is untrusted' page with a button to add an exception, and the exception popup lets you view the certificate and permanently store the exception if desired. I'm using the latest, 28.9.1, but I don't think this would be a problem in the previous versions either.

Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
thanks for checking. doesn't work for me that way. it seems i have to go through my settings and addons to find out what's causing this in my case.

Might as well mention that the new YT UI for uploading videos works perfectly.
Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
Well I am not entirely sure what you are seeing, but I just tested 4 builds. My build of 28.9.0.2, my build of trunk (29 pre-release), my build of 28.9.1.
All three of these show the Untrusted page with the option to make an exception.
SpockFan02's build of 28.9.1 however just shows me a blank white page. Not sure what is different about that build.
I believe showing the untrusted page is the expected behavior. If you want to grab my build (it is basically the build in the repository just with some pre-release window title fixes) and see if it handles the certificates correctly.
Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
that's exactly what i mean. so it's not because of my config or addons after all it seems.
well thanks for the additional test. i'll try your build ...
EDIT: unfortunately i just confirmed that it is caused by my profile after all. with a fresh one the behavior is as expected. with your build that is which at least gave me some sort of info even with my custom profile unlike the other.
i'll try to track it down and report back in case i find the cause.
Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
We briefly had an issue with error pages being busted but that was fixed March 31st. If that is the case in Spockfan's builds then those are using a non-updated platform submodule.

Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
Does there need to be a way to check that the platform module is on the right revision when building? Or at least note the platform revision somewhere... like in the about box?
Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
No, because at the build level this isn't known. I'm sure if Mozilla ever used submodules it'd be recorded somewhere (and probably sent back as telemetry...) but they didn't.
Just make sure you do a "git submodule update" after you manually pull.

Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
Well, I just mean in my personal projects, I build the revision number from svn/mercurial into the binary so after the fact I can tell what revision the binary is at. Seems like having the application and the platform revisions built in could be useful for diagnosis later.
Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
Or, you know, people can just build properly as they should.

Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
If you're afraid that you might forget, then do what I do for actual releases: use a batch or script file that does all the necessary steps to switch to the right branch, pull, update submodules and clobber before building.

Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
It was just a suggestion to help avoid problems like this. I am confident my builds will be done right most of the time, but every once in a while something weird happens.... and that would be a way to determine if things are actually in the expected state post-build. It is a pretty common practice in many projects, but it is obviously your call.
Re: Pale Moon 28.9.1
meanwhile i was able to reduce the possible causes to my settings so it's not the addons. however since i changed a lot in that regard i don't think i can track it down to a specific one. even more so since i don't even know whether it is a single one or a combination of more than one.
