Replying to [ticket:15797 supermario]:
> In Tor Browser 4.0.8 (windows) I was unable to import certificates until
I changed preference security.nocertdb to false (#13366). I tried the
directions in #13353 but disabling private browsing mode didn't work to
enable the certificate storage.
Did you restart the browser? I ask because this step is crucial.
> There is no warning that certificate storage is disabled. When you add a
certificate nothing happens. Also when you view a site with an
unrecognized certificate the 'Confirm Security Exception' button does
nothing.
Hrm... This might be a different bug. #13366 should have solved this if
you allow writing things to disk. Is this wrong? Anyway, I am not so happy
with just showing a message. I think we should allow users to import
certificates without the need for them to do preference enabling/disabling
as this is error-prone.
