Description Peter Åstrand cendio 2014-06-02 08:43:27 CEST
It seems like the Chrome browser on iOS uses the iOS subsystems for cert management. With self signed certs etc, one needs to use the link "Download server certificate". However, this links is now only visible within Safari. It should be visible in Chrome as well, when running on iOS.
Comment 1 Karl Mikaelsson cendio 2014-06-02 14:13:58 CEST
Chrome on iPad refused to download the certificate with "error 102". People online claim that iOS doesn't support opening files in external viewers with other browsers than Safari, but I'm not sure how accurate these comments are.

This is considered a bug by Chrome:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=244694

Good enough for us, we should show the link in Chrome on iOS.

Fixed in revision 29038.

Why show a link if it doesn't work ?

The upstream bug linked was fixed yesterday.

As that bug 244694 is for chromium how long does
it take to be included in chrome ?

HTML5 client does not work in Chrome on iOS (bug 5136). It's fine as it is.

We need to handle this correctly:

The bug implies it should fix the installation of a certificate in chrome, however this doesn't work see bug 5136.

Proposal to solution for this bug is to revert the changes made, update documentation with information that chrome on iOS only works with trusted root certificates.

Documentation was updated in r29495.

After internal discussions we decided that the changes in 29038 will not be reverted, i.e. the link will be shown on iOS no matter which browser is being used.

The generated pdf looks strange, you should probably add the para in it's own <note/> than reusing the same as the other note..
