Hi! I've just received a Globalsign certificate for running https on an Apache server with mod_ssl. The apache starts up without any problems, but when a clients connects to the server with https (the client is using Internet Explorer 5.5), the user gets a warning, and the "certification path" tab in IE says: "This certificate cannot be verified up to a trusted certification authority." The General tab/pane says: "This CA Root certificate is not trusted. To enable trust, install this certificate in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store."
I thought when using Globalsign the CA was valid and known by IE - I know it doesn't complaint when ordering the certificate, and as far as I remember they have signed their own certificate, so IE should know about Globalsign... I have downloaded the root certificate and installed it in my ssl.crt directory (http://support.globalsign.net/en/serversign/apachemodssl.cfm) - the only difference is that I compiled apache and mod_ssl before requestion the certificate - but that should hopefully not affect anything which can result in the problem I'm seeing right now... Anyone ?? /Brian ______________________________________________________________________ Apache Interface to OpenSSL (mod_ssl) www.modssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
