SSL firefox shows wrong message

Post by mister_v »

Hi,

I just installed a commercial SSL certificate and is works fine on my browsers (Opera)
except for firefox, I get the following error message
The certificate is not trusted because no issuer chain was provided.

Why is this?

I had the same problem once;
I forgot to install the certificate chain file

Code: Select all

 SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/crt/intermediate.crt
It should be delivered by your registar together with you normal certificate.

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:443>
 DocumentRoot /var/www/website
 ServerName www.domain.com

 SSLEngine on

 SSLCertificateFile /etc/ssl/crt/primary.crt
 SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/ssl/crt/private.key
 SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/ssl/crt/intermediate.crt
 </VirtualHost>
