sssl error

[davie_ne1]

We have a dedicated ssl certificate issue by geotrust via 1and1 and are having a little problem.

When we test ssl we get this error

There is a problem with the SSL certificate:- The host name in the certificate is invalid or does not match.


Here are by network setting with the sensitive lines removed

any ideas why they dont match ?

did you get this sorted....

"There is a problem with the SSL certificate:- The host name in the certificate is invalid or does not match."

tells me that the domain on the certificate is incorrect, not your settings

[pinbrook]

SSL is probably for domain.co.uk and you are looking for it at www.domain.co.uk or the reverse.

For example i see the message if i go to https://sweetswholesale.co.uk/acatalog/

Yes I cancelled the certificate via 1and1 and then re-issued it.

I still got the error initially but seemed to sort it's self out with a day or so.

thanks for your input though
