Very Strange , I can't log into forum using Dillo..
« on: August 08, 2026, 03:20:32 PM »
It's really odd , I can't seem to log into the forum using Dillo..  I'm on my main Linux computer typing this ...  But from an old laptop running TC17 , I can't seem to get in here... I can see the forum fine..  but i get an error:
Quote
Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again.

Basically Dillo is the only browser that runs on this old machine.. 


Very weird , Anyone else run into this issue?

try links2 with the "dash g" for graphics mode

Code: [Select]
links2 -g https://forum.tinycorelinux.net

when i attempt to use dillo to navigate to https://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php i get a small window that pops up with

"The remote certificate has expired. The certificate wasn't designed to last this long. You should avoid this site."

and has a "continue" button and a "cancel" button

i assume the referenced "certificate" is something in/on dillo since i don't see any expired certificates at the website

same for me: "An Error Has Occurred! Session verification failed. Please try logging out and back in again, and then try again " when using dillo (but login works in Firefox).
Code: [Select]
dillo -v
Dillo v3.3.0-dirty
Libraries: fltk/1.3.11 jpeg/3.2.0 png/1.6.58 webp/1.6.0 zlib/1.3.1.zlib-ng brotli/1.2.0 OpenSSL/3.6.3
Features: +GIF +JPEG +PNG +SVG +WEBP +BROTLI +XEMBED +TLS +IPV6 +CTL
So, if it were not changes in the source (dillo), neither in the destination (the TC forum), then maybe is the middle man (the network)
Code: [Select]
Nav_open_url: new url='https://forum.tinycorelinux.net/'

Isn't Links that text based browser??  "dash g" for graphics mode?

I'll look into it...
