Untrusted Connection Problem

Hi,

Most of the sites I have tried to go to have been blocked by Firefox's certificate system. It will fist pop up with this:

"You have asked Firefox to connect
securely to session.wikispaces.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.

Normally, when you try to connect securely,
sites will present trusted identification to prove that you are
going to the right place. However, this site's identity can't be verified.

What Should I do?
If you usually connect to
this site without problems, this error could mean that someone is
trying to impersonate the site, and you shouldn't continue."


And then even if I tell it to make an exception, it informs me that the certificate still is not valid. Either way, this pops up on most of my websites, and if I can turn it off somehow in firefox, I would. I just want it to work for me.

Thanks

    Hi ntg98,

    Does the message come up again in the same session? Or when you open another firefox window?

    In FF 3.6.3 you just need to add exception and make sure "Permanently store this exception" is checked.

    If it still does not work, delete all certificates in sahi/userdata/certs directory, restart Sahi and start all over again.

    Regards,
    Narayan

    Well it depends on the website I am visiting. On some of them, I can go about my business just fine, but on others, the following message pops up and then I can no longer view the page, even after I have told it to permanently store the exception.

    Thanks though.

    secure.wlxrs.com:443 uses an invalid security certificate.

    The certificate is not valid because it is self-signed.

    (Error code: sec_error_ca_invalid)

    This could be a problem with the server's configuration or it could be someone trying to impersonate the server.

    If you have connected to this server successfully in the past the error may be temporary and you can try again later.

    Any other ideas? The error message pops up after the certificate is correctly stored. It also brings up a buggy version of the page I am trying to view.

    Buggy version of the page? Looks like some certificates have not been accepted. Have you gone through this? http://sahi.co.in/w/https-ssl
