Certificate expired

[joska]

The website certificate is expired, which Chrome *constantly* nags about.

[ThorstenOtto]

Yes, just got the same message here in Firefox.

[Dan1975]

Just had it too

[TheNameOfTheGame]

Same here in firefox. Was just going to start a thread about it .

this certificate business is a bother .....

[DarkLord]

Sme here...with Firefox...

[Ektus]

Even Seamonkey complains, but still has an option to permanently accept it nevertheless (without nagging)

[czietz]

Have patience. I see that multiple new certificates have been issued: https://crt.sh/?q=atari-forum.com. Thus, I assume the admins are already working on this problem.

It was raised via one of the FB groups and both Dal & Brume are sorting it out.

Hi,

On Firefox from France....

Hope that the certificate will generate soon

[farvardin]

this certificate business is a bother .....

it's possible to use let's encrypt, which is free

[mlynn1974]

Let's Encrypt is a free SSL provider but the Auto-Renew every 90 days feature in cPanel is a pain.
If cPanel is available Comodo Issued free SSLs are also an option.

way beyond my grasp ... is Atari forums going underground?

Must less bother than a hover..... ha ha ha ..... opps.... dated myself

[wongck]

Wow... fixed !!
Thanks to the admin Dal & Brume !!

[ThorstenOtto]

Really fixed? Just got a different error in Firefox: unknown issuer (new certificate seems to be from GeoTrust)

Works for me. Firefox 88.0.1. You seem to be using an old version judging by the screenshot.

(new certificate seems to be from GeoTrust)

As was the previous one that expired on Saturday.

That being said, the atari-forum.com server is not delivering the intermediate [1] certificate:
https://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker. ... -forum.com
It might increase compatibility with clients/browsers if it was correctly configured to do so.

[1] What is an intermediate certificate? Browsers only have a limited set of certificates they inherently trust: root certificates. Generally, the certificate for a server is not directly signed by the root certificate, but by an intermediate. In case of atari-forum.com: atari-forum.com <- signed by GeoTrust TLS DV RSA Mixed SHA256 2020 CA-1 <- signed by DigiCert Global Root CA <- trusted by browser. Browsers have to check the entire chain to be certain that a certificate is valid. You can help them by sending the intermediate certificate, too. This is considered TLS/SSL best practice: https://github.com/ssllabs/research/wik ... ate-chains

Letsencrypt certificates can be automatically checked and updated from a cron job. No problem at all.

[dBUGBUG]

Expired again .....

Out of my hands. I have notified Dal and whoever he talks to is needed for whatever the next steps are.
