Yes, the current cert was bought this weekend from starfield (godaddy). Reason being, another client site has a cert from starfield, and IE successfully completes handshake. Site is https:// www.shopelizabethbrady.com It is running on same machine, same apache, Apache/1.3.33 mod_ssl/2.8.24, and same openssl, OpenSSL 0.9.7i.

The bit about the intermediate CA certificate showing Verisign is noteworthy. The previous cert was from Verisign, so this makes sense. Yet the SSLCertificateChainFile /private/etc/httpd/ebg-ssl4/ sf_issuing.crt is the same sf_issuing.crt used for shopelizabethbrady.com, which does not show Verisign in handshake transcript. Where might this verisignian vestige be residing?

Thank you immensely for the time,
Winston

Hello,

I'll spare my sob story, suffice to say there's week old blood on the

Here's what I'm trying to resolve:

[pbAl:~] winstonf% openssl s_client -connect www.elegantbabygifts.com:
443 -state
CONNECTED(00000003)
SSL_connect:before/connect initialization
SSL_connect:SSLv2/v3 write client hello A
SSL_connect:SSLv3 read server hello A
depth=0 /O=www.elegantbabygifts.com/OU=Domain Control Validated/
CN=www.elegantbabygifts.com
verify error:num=20:unable to get local issuer certificate
verify return:1
depth=0 /O=www.elegantbabygifts.com/OU=Domain Control Validated/
CN=www.elegantbabygifts.com
verify error:num=27:certificate not trusted
verify return:1
depth=0 /O=www.elegantbabygifts.com/OU=Domain Control Validated/
CN=www.elegantbabygifts.com
verify error:num=21:unable to verify the first certificate

Specifically the depth=0 and resulting 3 errors, and ultimately the
fact that majority of cattle using IE cannot checkout from my
customers sites since I upgraded to OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005.



Looks like the server is misconfigured: you aren't sending the correct
intermediate CA certificate.

You are sending the "Verisign Trust Network" intermediate CA and you should
instead be sending the "Starfield Secure Certification Authority" CA.

Did someone by any chance get the certificate from a different CA recently?

That seems likely since the date is 20th Feb.

Steve.
