Fedora :: Unable To Open Https Websites On 10 & 11
Jul 24, 2009
I have installed Fedora 10 and centos 5.3 on 30 system in my home office. everything works fine except accessing https websites. the problem persists in both centos and fedora even after changing firefox versions. what's worse is the problem is not resolved after changing other browsers. so the problem is not browser-centric. i think it has something to do deeper in fedora and centos. also note that i have disabled firewall and selinux but in vain. the problem is still there across all the systems. it's really a show-stopper for me.

I have a weird problem with opening certain websites under ubuntu. I tried at windows and i have no problem. The DNS in windows is my modem 192.168.1.1 but under linux for some strange reason this won't fly.For example ......com won't open on firefox, but ping and traceroute works just fine.
UPDATE: ping and traceroute doesnt work for www.......com but only for [URL]After using lynx this is what i got back
Quote:
micdhack@micdhack-laptop:~$ lynx ......com
Looking up '......com' first
Looking up ......com first
Looking up ......com
[code]....
Is there a way to use another dns than the one that i get from my internet provider?

I have recently installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. It got installed and is working o.k. However I am facing one typical issue: When ever I try to open any secured site ( like bill payment sites etc. ) , firefox simply does not open these pages. However at the bottom left it displays -Done.

I have installed Dansguardian on my little brothers laptop (using Tinyproxy and Firehol too) and I have it mostly configured the way I like it. The only problem now is that I can't seem to block secure (https://www...) websites, and he knows a few proxies that use secure domains. I was wondering if anyone has been able to make Dansguardian block these websites or is it just not doable?

I have installed windows server 2003 on my computer, and i can surf the internet with my gui-based web browsers.
I have also installed vmware workstation 6.5 on the same computer, and successfully installed fedora 12 in vmware, with network is bridged.
I can successfully ping websites at the command line, e.g., ping [url], it did get replies with time and ttl, but i can't open the websites with firefox or conquerer browsers.

I've noticed that when I open firefox I get really strange HTTP and HTTPS connections showing up in firestarter (which as I understand it is just a GUI for IPtables). They connect to various bits of a site listed as 1e100.net (when you use "lookup hostnames") such as wy-in-f18.1e100.net, they stay connected all the time as far as I can see unless I close firefox. I've heard people say they are connected to Google, but I can close all tabs after loging out of google and still see them... it's very odd.

I am facing a problem concerning secure websites where I get the "Connection Reset" error in browser after a timeout of I think 1 minute.
OS: Fedora 14 ( I faced same problem with Ubuntu 10.10 )Browsers: Chrome and Firefox
The issue is not there on Windows using Chrome and Firefox so I believe this is a problem with how linux manages secure connections. I can access all the google secure websites too. There a few other websites apart from facebook.com that I know which I am unable to access.

I have a lenovo x200 laptop running Fedora 14, fully up to date with the Fedora repository. Seemingly out of nowhere, some websites will no longer load. First it happened to www.facebook.com, next (after a day or so) wikipedia.org, now the Fedora forum. Other Internet access seems fine, but when I try to go to these pages I just get "unable to find host" errors. Its totally bizarre. It first happened in an airport so I thought it was just a strange network there, but now it happens at home. I can't get on these sites in firefox or elinks browsers (in a terminal) BUT I can ping both sites no problem. Also, the other computers in this house have no problem visiting these sites.

Certain websites do not open on any browser on my 10.04. I tried [URL]... and those sites were up. I rebooted into windows and it opens. I changed my dns server to open dns then google dns but did not solve the problem.I have a dsl connection with automatic dhcp. While googling i read about nsswitch.conf and this is what is presently looks like
Code:
# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.

When I click on an http link in Thunderbird, nothing at all happens. There's no error message on the console, there's no new browser starting, and there's no new tab opening with the browser already running.
I've tried: sudo update-alternatives --config x-www-browser, choosing firefox.I've also tried: adding a new string value to Thunderbird's warranty-voiding config: network.protocol-handler.app.http, with a value of /usr/bin/firefox. This was recommended in various threads.But no luck.There's an entry for https - firefox on the Attachment tab of the preferences, and https links are indeed opening in Firefox. But not http.KDE 4.4.2 itself has default mail client and browser set to Thunderbird 3.0.4 and Firefox 3.6.3 (both from the repositories, no website downloads).

I've been an Ubuntu user since Jaunty, and i gotta say, i'm really impressed, especially with the great Karmic! However, ever since my first ubuntu installation, i've had a very awkward problem: My internet does not open any of the following websites:
Rapidshare
Megaupload
Urbandictionary
I don't know if there are other websites I wouldn't be able to access, but those are the main ones i use frequently, now here's what I tried so far (nothing worked):
1- Use a different browser (none of firefox, opera or konqueror worked)
2- Edit the etc/hosts file
3- add a line in the etc/hosts.allow file
It seems so stupid to have to power on a virtual machine to download a rapidshare file!

Linux Mint 9 Fluxbox
Firefox 3.6.8
Even when I don't disturb anything while browsing, random sites start
launching (one at a time)!!
>Example:
bash.com
gifts.com
<LQ member username>.com
sex.com
I usually browse Lq, and all this happens while browsing Lq threads,
and sometimes other websites too!

I am running Ubuntu 10.4 with Apache2, SVN and SSL. Both HTTP and HTTPS are working correctly with my website. Although the SVN setup I have is not working. This configuration gives me a 403 error.
Code:
<Location /svn>
DAV svn
SVNParentPath /srv/svn/repos
SVNListParentPath On
[Code]...
This issue is driving me up the walls. If there is any additional information, I will be more than happy to provide it.

Since Ubuntu and other Linux Distros are free to download and distribute. Would it be illegal for me to have a Small Business of my own that would charge individuals/small-businesses to Install and Setup Linux desktops. I wasn't sure how that GPL license worked. I figured I would be charging individuals for setting up Linux Desktops on their machines or small business/offices and training/teaching them on the various applications they could install on their own.
Also, would it be illegal to create websites using Apache, Tomcat and other Open Source tools and then sell those sites. I figured many people are turned off by learning or installing something other than Windows desktops on their pcs, just because it is different. If this cannot be done under the GPL license, then could someone tell me how I could go about starting my own small business to legally Setup/Install Linux distributions.

Just installed Fedora 12 on a P4 IBM. Everything installed fine. Then, I rebooted, installed updates, and installed a few simple programs (emacs, ssh server). I rebooted since some kernel updates had been made. I can't login anymore. I get a brief message at GDM that says "unable to open session" after I enter my password. Root also doesn't work, but I figured out that root logins are disabled. I found something that recommended disabling selinux, so I reboot with selinux=0 parameter. That still didn't fix the problem, but did initiate selinux to re-label everything on the next boot.
My next thought was that maybe my password got corrupted, so I went into single usermode. I ran passwd justin, so I know that my password is correct. I still can't login via GDM or on a tty.
EDIT: I was also thinking I might need to uninstall something that I did; however, networking is disabled in single usermode, and if I init 3, then I get a login prompt that I can't open. Is there a way that I can enable root login? That might be a starting point to see if it's my user account or a general login problem.

I Made a fresh Installation of Fedora 13. It shows VolGroup00 and File System in the Computer on desktop.
The size of the hardisk is 160gb. The file system shows some 4gb. I'm not able to open the Volgroup00. On double clicking it it shoes the error "Unable to mount location"
on entering fdisk -l,
It says the partiton one /dev/sda1 did not end on cylinder boundary.
The partition /dev/sda1 ends on Cylinder 63 and the emaing LVM partition also starts on Cylinder 63.
I tried reinstallling after dropping both the partiotions 4 times, but this is always the case.

I'm trying to disable the firewall in an attempt to get my computer to see my other computer connected to the router. However I'm unable to get the firewall app to open. Here's the error in the attachment. It just says a float is required. My only options are to redo, which keeps the same error coming back, or to quit which closes the whole thing.

I clean-installed Fedora 11 and everything was running well. I wanted to try Bacula backup program and so I installed the Development package in other to compile Bacula. When I finished the installation, I discovered a bunch of foreign language supports had been installed. I just erased them. While doing so, I must have also erased some other files.
When I rebooted, the bootup process went well until just before the login screen. The screen showed the Fedora logo, f, and got stock there. I was able to login remotely from another local network computer via vncviewer. I found that GNOME dsktop was missing. I logged on to Fedora 11 text mode by issuing CTL+ATL+F3 and did 'yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment" By remote login from another computer, I determined that the GNOME Desktop had been restored. But the Fedora 11 still stil stuck just before the login screen. What do you think is missing? What do I need to reinstall?
