You almost certainly did have a certificate on the CF server. I'm pretty
sure that the JVM ships with a default list of trusted root certification
authorities. For a certificate to be validated, you would either have to
have that certificate imported into your keystore as a trusted certificate,
or it would have had to been signed using one of the trusted root
certificates you happen to already have installed.

es

Those trusted root certificates, like any other certificates, expire over
time. This has happened occasionally with browsers, as well.
