Description Samuel Mannehed cendio 2016-09-20 16:15:00 CEST 
Seen on Edge version 25.

Steps to reproduce: 
1. surf to castro.lkpg.cendio.se:300 and accept the unsigned certificate
2. log in
3. you are now redirected to the agent tl.cendio.se (which in this example is on the same machine) but Edge doesn't display the dialogue for accepting the unsigned certificate. - You are stuck on the "redirecting.." screen.


On non-cluster setups of ThinLinc you can work around this by directly surfing to the same hostname that is specified in agent_hostname.
In cluster setups this won't work out, since the master isn't running on the agent machines. You will have to get a signed certificate.

OR:

You can upgrade to a newer version of Microsoft Edge. Version 38 of Edge does show the certificate dialogue even for the agent.

Nope - it's still broken with Edge 38.14393.0.0.

Since the latest vendordrop of noVNC (for thinlinc 4.11.0) we no longer have the "redirecting.."-screen, we now instead have a loading animation.

So this bug will result in an infinite loading animation.

For some reason, these problems disappears if you open developer console and reload the page.
Comment 4 Samuel Mannehed cendio 2021-11-17 17:23:21 CET 
Needs retesting with new Edge browser.
Comment 5 Frida Flodin cendio 2021-11-18 16:25:42 CET 
This is fixed with new Edge Version 95.0.1020.53, tested on Windows 10.
