[cobalt-users] PHP/CGI and wierd SSL problem

["Paul Shuttleworth" <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All

Here is the story so far....

RAQ4r
This particular client has an IP address to himself as he has SSL enabled.
The old cert (thawte) expired, so we took out a test cert with Comodo.
Cert was installed and the httpd.conf was modified to point to the uploaded
intermediate cert they send which was renamed (ca.txt) and uploaded to the
server. (all as per the comodo instructions for a RAQ server)

All has been working fine after a re-boot of the server.

I am getting reports of the CGI and PHP scripts (using https://.........)
are now sending blank e-mails back to the office.

The customer fills in a form (say a renewal form for something), the page
then validates the form to check all fields against the relevant rules.
The form passes the validation (so must have no blank fields) this page
passes the variables on to the next page using the post function and the
next page takes those variables, adds the environment variables (browser, ip
address etc) and generates e-mails to the customer which are blank (apart
from the environment variables).
