Service Pack for Calypso 2018 is live! 6.6.12


Recommended Posts

As an FYI for anyone who hasn't already tried, Google Chrome will NOT allow you to access the SDP until Zeiss gets a new certificate issued. The reason for this is the SDP is using a digital certificate issued by Symantec, and despite being valid until June 2019, Google has revoked browser trust for it. Firefox might have as well, although Mozilla planned to delay that change last time I checked. Internet Explorer and Edge can both still reach the site.

As for the status of SP2, I managed to install it without issue, and it runs on an English copy of Calypso, but the fact that Zeiss apparently pulled it means I'm not willing to trust it.

When I looked yesterday, there were only the release notes, but no SP.
This morning the whole SP menu item is gone.
So much for the German version 😃

But that's not the first time they withdrew something shortly after release.

Interesting that it let you do that. I was not given that option at all, which on the whole is probably a good thing, at least from a security standpoint. An older version of Chrome, maybe? I wondered if versions before 70 would let people access sites with these certs, but it wasn't something I could check for myself.

Oh well, nice to see it all got sorted out. I should probably remove my 6.6 service pack while I wait for a new one to be uploaded.
