[Bug 198841] [NEW] PKCS #12 Error Importing Client Certificates

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

After upgrading to Hardy I cannot import client (user) certificates any
more. The error message is:

The PKCS #12 operation failed for unknown reasons.

This happens with Firefox 3, but also (after downgrading Firefox) with version 2. I don't think that this is a firefox problem.
Using client certificates which were imported before the upgrade is no problem.
Importing CA-certificates is also no problem. It applies only to user certificates (those who contain the private key).

My workaround was to import the certificates on an older system (not
Hardy) and then copying the ".mozilla" directory from there to my home
directory on the Hardy system. Of cause this is annoying.
