At the moment I'm working on a Java project, where I generate a CA
certificate and server certificates to offer a secure https service.
After the generation, the CA certifcate is loaded with jss into the
firefox as a ca certificate and the server certificate is loaded into
the apache.
But everytime I use https service, Firefox couldn't verify the server
certificate and returns following message:
Unable to verify the identity of localhost as a trusted side.
Possible reasons:
- Your browser does not recognize the Certificate Authority that issued
the site's certificate. [1]
- The site's certifcate is incomplete due to a server misconfiguration.[2]
- Your are connected to a side pretending to be localhost, possibly to
obtain your confidential information. [3]
At the moment I think I could ignore option [3], cause the x509
certificate is issued to localhost.
So only option [1] and [2] are left. IE says only that it also couldn't
verify the issuer but tells me nothing about a misconfiguration. So I
think the problem can be found in option [1].
But why can't Firefox find the CA certifcate although it is listet in
the CA certificate list?
Any ideas?
Ciao Florian
