New issue 147386 by srie...@schedulesurgery.com: Chrome repeatedly asks
to "Select a certificate" when accessing a website which requires client
certificate authentication.
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=147386

Chrome Version : 21.0.1180.89 m
URLs (if applicable) :
Other browsers tested:
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 5:OK
Firefox 4.x:OK
IE 7/8/9:OK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Connect to a site which requires a client certificate
2. Select certificate and proceed.
3.

What is the expected result?
Should only be prompted for the client certificate once during the session.

What happens instead?
After selecting correct certificate, browser proceeds to begin to load
page, but load will be interrupted multiples by prompts to again select
certificate. Can eventually load page, but only after selecting client
certificate multiple times.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

This problem started sometime in June or early July 2012.

mattm: could you look into this? Assuming this is a regression, you can
start
with a bisection. Thanks.

I see the same problem on 22.0.1229.94 (Windows) against one Windows Server
2008 R2 site but have no problems against the 'same' site on a different
server with a similar setup (same certificates). So this may be a
combination of Chrome, the certificate itself and the server settings. This
makes it hard to debug.
I can't give you the Urls to the servers, they are all internal.

hahndorf: Can you get a chrome://net-internals log, as described on
https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/for-testers/providing-network-details ?
You can either review yourself and do a little search/replace on the output
file, replacing private.url with dummy.url.local , or you can send directly
and privately to rsleevi at chromium.org

Thanks.

Received word from hahndorf-- that they worked around the issue through a
configuration change. No word from sriemen-- since the bug was filed, so I
propose closing this unless we get further feedback.

I just encountered this issue on Chrome Version 34.0.1847.60 beta
connecting to a private server. As far as I recall, this was working fine
before. It continues to work fine on Firefox and other browsers.

- I do not have multiple profile windows.
- I do not have any network intermediaries active.
- There are no reverse proxies.
- There are both local and remote firewalls, but neither logged any
rejected/dropped packets.
- There is no antivirus, local or remote.
- The remote server is Apache HTTPD. The SSL connection has worked fine in
the past, and works correctly in Firefox.

I have a NetLog for analysis. As it contains private URLs, please tell me
where to send it?
