Got an invalid certificate error while accessing a website using Firefox

Asked By Randw 0 points N/A Posted on - 04/04/2012

I was trying to access a very important website using Firefox when I got this error message about invalid certificate.  I tried getting the resolution from the internet but received various ones.  I then chanced upon this forum thinking that you might have the right solution. 

I rely on your expertise and help will much be appreciated.

Alert

You have received an invalid certificate. Please contact the server administrator or email correspondent and give them the following information:

Your certificate contains the same serial number as another certificate issued by the certificate authority. Please get a new certificate containing a unique serial number.

Hello Rendw,

In most cases, this problem occurs when the time, date and year of your computer is not correct. So whenever you will be connected to the Internet just try to be sure that your desktop time, date and year is correct. So if you see that your desktop time date and year is not correct then correct those.

After correcting those refresh the computer and then you have to be connected to the Internet. I can ensure you that if you can be connected by following the instructions above then your browser won’t give you the error message again. You will have a comfortable browsing.

Thanks

Just communicate with server administrators and seek help from him mentioning the problem you face. Probably she/he will set two options for you. One option is to replace and another is to refund.
