I am signing with a build of signtool numbered 3.10. When I sign with my company cert it says: signtool: PROBLEM signing data (Unknown issuer) the tree "." was NOT SUCCESSFULLY SIGNED When I sign with a test cert it says: tree "." signed successfully Do you think I need my certificate reissued? What should I ask Thawte to do? Regards, Steve _______________________________________________ Mozilla-xpinstall mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-xpinstall
