Are you using a certificate from GeoTrust (aka the old Equifax certificate) or some other cert not in the Cacerts shipped with java, if so then you will need to import thier Root Certificate into your $jre_home/lib/security/cacerts file using the keytool. If you are using NT be sure that you modifiy the one in C:\Program Files\java\j2... \lib\security (it might be good idea to get the jre in the SDK as well).
You can get the certificate from GeoTrust (you will need to ask for it) or Export the root Certificate from your Browser. You might also consider using a jssecerts file instead of just adding it to Cacerts...
