Problem: mozilla, https

[Michal Kwiatek <Mi...@cern.ch>]

Dear all,

I'm having a strange problem with mozilla firefox. Sometimes it cannot
understand the way tomcat sends https certificate and in consequence it
fails to over HTTPS. The answer (some) users get is: Couldn't establish
an eencrypted connection because certificate presented by
lxb0752.cern.ch is invalid or corrupted. error code -8182.

Have you got an idea why?

I'm using tomcat 5.0.28 and a self-signed certificate.

Thanks in advance,
Michal.

Looks like there are a few different reasons for that error, one is
the client side certificate db could be screwed:

Or you might have something weird going on with your self signed
certificate, like is it missing a Subject/CN = your domain name entry?
Are you trying to do anything like also create your own CA with
another certificate?
