Melanie: Your certificate is invalid, as your navigator does not know the Certificate Authority who issued your server certificate (In this case, you). It's not related to expiration dates. You can find nice guides (using openssl :( ) here: http://www.tc.umn.edu/~brams006/selfsign.html and here: http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=106293430225790&w=2 that can help you to understand the process, and of course with the problem you are having
